Pio felt herself skimming down a long corridor of light and silence, using the now dead laptop like a sled. A sudden whoosh of air & a riot of color and sound assailed her as she fell through the end of the tunnel, landing on her backside on the banks of the Anduin. Near her in a grey heap was Veritas, rubbing her head as if a large headache had invaded it.

Looking around carefully for any signs of Melkor, she walked over and retrieved the laptop. Trashcan or no trashcan, she decided that no loose ends should be left to link the Void to Middle Earth. Taking her small knife from her belt, she pried out all the memory components of the now innocent appearing laptop and drawing her elven blade, she skewered them with a decisive thrust. The green wire that had connected to the REG she hacked into minuscule pieces and threw them in the Anduin. She still worried that Melkor had made off with the REG, but she hoped that the trashcan would be able to contain any tries by him to use the REG.

She walked over to Veritas and helped her to her feet. 'Come on, friend, we're back home & things are safe. I think we've earned some food & drink!'

'Isn't that Gimli, over there with a large tankard in front of him? Let's join him; I think we have some catching up to do. And oooh, I smell wild mushroom stew with herbed dumplings!!'
