Periwinkle nickered softly at the black war steed, as if to draw his attention to the elven steed. Getathane he heard him called. This just might be an interesting trip he thought to himselfa wraith steed, an elven steed, and an oliphaunt! He wandered over to take a look at the oliphaunt and see what might be had in that area for breakfast.
*****************************************
The hobbit filled a plate with mushrooms and grabbed her cup of sweetpice tea.Retiring to a tussock of grass on a little rise a short distance from the fire, she ate silently, her eyes watching the group and their interactions.
Being done a short time thereafter, she laid aside her plate and cup and wiped her fingers on the grass. From within her vest, she drew out her small sketchpad and took the charcoal stick from behind her ear. Her hand flew over the paper, bringing to life the figures before her.
Though her eyes and hand were intent upon the drawing, her ears were trained on the new arrival, Arcon, and his question to Gandalf and Bethberry.
