Hardo sat in the stern of his boat and watched the clouds. He'd had a very trying couple of days and was all too glad to sit and relax while someone else did the work for a change. Not that he objected to building all the fires and cooking all the meals, but maybe the Elves might want to do something contructive as well. He glanced toward the prow, where Meneciriel was rowing industriously. Behind him, Thule was rowing with slightly less enthusiasm but still doing her share. Hardo returned his gaze to the clouds. Clouds always made him fell so peaceful. Before he knew it, he'd fallen into a doze.

He woke with a start when the boat came to a stop against a rocky beach. Looking around, he realised that several hours had passed and it was now late afternoon. The group had stopped for a bit of supper before pushing on through the night. Hardo grumbled a bit, but it was more for appearances than from any real sense of irritation. They were behind schedule, after all, and had to make up the time somehow.
