Frain politely asked Stonehelm for a short leave of absence to look around the city. His wish was granted, so long as it be quick.
Frain walked around the city and awe was in his eyes through the entire walk. Burin joined him at some point, with a cheerful look on his face.
Frain, good friend, I am inspired to sing. Burin stated simply.
Frain smiled, and knew what would come next. He had nearly forgotten Curin and Burin, yet he was glad to see one of them.
Right then. You can start. Frain said, and along they went laughing as they made up their own song:
"I've made it to my destination
My safe Haven.
I worked so hard to get to this location!
So glad it's over,
But I don't want it to end.
Just around the cavern's edge,
To our growing friendships I pledge!"
Burin gestured towards Frain.
"Hold my head up high,
Proud in this white sunny sky.
One group for one cause
Although at first there was
Hesitation and pause.
Through thick and thin,
With strangers and kin
We've learned so much
So much more to see
So much more I can be!
All in this one journey!"
Frain and Burin smiled, and laughed. People stared as though they were drunk. Children laughed at them. They didn't care.
After their stroll was finished, Frain went to find the House of Learning. He thought he might be able to help Hringa a bit.
