The sun was almost at the noonday mark when Olo and Carl came into camp. Giles and Gaddy came up to hold their horses as they dismounted, then the two riders strode quickly to where Bullroarer stood talking to Hal, Robin, and Daisy.
'You look as if you're healing well.' they heard him comment. All three shook their heads yes, reassuring him they would be able to walk the rest of the way. Bullroarer breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the route might not accomodate the wagon.
He left the three of them to rest in the wagon, and held a brief conference to the side of the camp with Carl and Olo. Carl deferred to the Ranger, letting him fill in the Took with the details of what they had found, and the information Olo had gotten from the other Rangers. Bullroarer shared his plan then, with them, and they discussed the details further.
Bullroarer gathered the Hobbits about him, and told them they would be pushing on today. Carl and Olo had brought him the details that he sought, and now the companions would move to cross the bridge into the Angle.
