Orual has just left Hobbiton.

For a very, very long time Rie sat staring at Don. Her green eyes were dispassionate, almost emotionless. She bit her lip and nodded slowly.

"Well," she said, as though it was a great philosophical statement. The meaning of the universe. "Well."

Talômi? Impossible. It was simply not possible. Well.

Her green eyes filled with tears, and one spilled down onto her lightly freckled cheek. She had been in the sun too long. Well, well, well.

"Don, I hardly know what to say." Well? Well. Rie could not find anything else to do, anything else to say. Her brain felt like it had spontaneously exploded, and all of her thinking was blown to bits. So she did the only thing she could think of.

She began to bawl.
