Barrow-Downs Birthday Party at the Fields of Cormallen - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Rose was relieved to see that Pio wasn't causing trouble. Of course. Just because SHE was tempted now she thought everyone else would be. Rose felt her guilt sweep back to her but she shook it off. She supposed she would live with the feeling the rest of her life. But she didn't mind. It was a reminder to her to watch her step.

By now Stacy was worried because Rose was not answering her. "It's nothing. Just a false alarm." she smiled and Stacy was satisfied.

Then Rose felt another pair of eyes on her. She turned to see the elf caption watching her expectently. He must not have relized that Rose didn't want to leave. She walked over to him to explain and Frodo made to leap after her but Rose stedied him saying she was only going to tell the elf she was staying.

She walked over to him and was overwellmed by his height. He was probably no taller than any elf Rose had ever met but the way he looked down at Rose made her feel small and insignifigant.
"Well?" he said "I haven't got all day."
"I don't think I will go. Not yet at least."

Then she walked back to Frodo. She helped him over to the bar and then started to absent mindedly sip some soda.

Her first Barrow downs party. And so much had happened. She knew that she would always remember it. It had taught her exactly what the Barrow Downs was all about. They had all come to the site because they had at least one thing in common. A love for Tolkien. And they learned to reflect the leasons taught in the books. About sticking together through friendship and bravery. Trust and forgiveness.

But unlike others who were now trying to relax and take a break from exitement Rose found that she was bored. She loved adventure of all kinds dispite any greif that came with them. For most of her life she had been stuck in a hobbit hole doing housework and dreaming of far off places and those who already living her dreams. (Sam, Frodo, Merry and Pippin) And now she wanted more. She would not leave the party field untill a new adventure was at hand. She new she didn't have to wait long.

The Barrow-Downs were full of suprises.
