Mira
Mira had been wandering around outside for hours. She had been through the rain and now the weather was rather pleasant. She had gotten quite far from the Inn, and now she was glad to see it up ahead, with lights twinkling in some windows. Trudging wearily up to the door, she pushed it open and was embraced by the warmth and merriness of the Dragon.
She stepped up to the bar and smiled at the barkeep. "May I have a cup of tea, please?" she asked, sliding a coin over the bar. The barkeep smiled and nodded, and in a few moments Mira was sipping a steaming cup. Her eyes roved over the room and saw Lily enjoying the company of a few other hobbits.
She wondered for a minute whether she should go and speak to them, then decided that it would do no harm. She stepped away from the bar, folding her hands around the hot teacup, and made her way over to where Lily and the other hobbits were.
"Hello again, Lily," she said softly, not wanting to interrupt anyone rudely.
