I walked down the main road in the strange place of the Shire. All the little hobbits running about, it was rather amusing. I still couldn't find an inn, so I decided to ask the next local I found. "Excuse me sir," I asked a young hobbit, "Could you give me directions to the nearest inn?"
"That'd be the Green Dragon. Fine inn indeed, that it is." he replied. "Who might you be?"
"My name is Varin," I replied. "Where could I find the inn?"
"Just continue along this road here and you'll find it," the hobbit said. "You're a dwarf, aren't you? But where's you beard?" He thought for a moment, "You must be a lady dwarf! I've never seen a lady dwarf before. What are you doing in the Shire?"
"Oh, just travelling," I replied, not wishing to say much more. "Good day, and thank you." With that I left for the Green Dragon Inn.
A bit farther down the road I saw it. It was a nice looking inn. I went inside and got a room. I placed my few things in it and went down to the common-room. I ordered a pint and sat watching all the different people here.
