Elen tied up Nimroch out in the stables. “I will return soon, do not drink the water or eat any thing given to you!” She smiled at him and took a large flask from her side, opened it and tipped it into his mouth. She put the top back on delicately, and revealed an apple from underneath her cloak. She held it up to the moon. “Do you want it?” He neighed softly and threw his head back playfully. “Here.” And she fed it to him. “Remember what I said.” She kissed his head softly and left. She hurried up the path to the Inn, the streets were silent, but the Inn seemed full. She pushed the door open, the smell of ale and pipe weed filled her lungs and smoke consumed her slender figure. She walked in and lowered the hood of her green cloak. Her hair fell to her shoulders, a few men stared at her, smiling, but she just ignored them. She was here to do a job and not to make friends.

She looked around the Inn and saw a notice on the wall, she pushed past a few drunk men so she could see it clearer. It read

NOTICE-TO THE VILLAGERS OF BREE

A disease is passing through the city. It will most likely kill all animals and plants growing, so we, the Administrators of the City, advise all villagers to stock up on provisions quickly, the plague is a day or two away from hitting. Also, any interested in aiding the town, there will be a meeting at the Old Hall on the South-Eastern side of the city who will be called up to order to discuss the disease and figure out ways of stopping this plague. The date will be announced shortly, for halflings of the shire and elves of Rivendell are called to the meeting as well.

THE CITY OF BREE

So this was the meeting that she had been sent to, it looked as though hobbits and elves would be joining them to. Elen stood for a while wondering what to do. She then decided that she might as well get clean and be well rested for the next day so she paid for a room.
The room was warm as it had a fire already blazing, she placed her bow and quiver on the bed and then placed her two knives next to the bow. She got undressed and washed. She then put on her dress, she rarely wore it but it would be good enough to sleep in. She pulled the white sheets back and collapsed onto the bed. She was very tired so tired in fact that she forgot her hunger instead she closed her eyes and feel asleep.
