Walk To Rivendell" aka "The Eowyn Challenge"

[Alatáriël Lossëhelin]

Remember how we were talking about going to Mordor, after we get to Rivendell? Here are directions.

Tinuviel: Toooo funny!! I especially liked the 'recommendation' to check with local inns to see if any wars are brewing or enemies pursuing. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

We had rested for only a few hours last night when a terrific thunderstorm came up out of the East. We were quickly drenched and unable to sleep for the rest of the night. The rains continued all day, and the mud made walking wearisome. Strider and Glorfindel fear the Riders will catch us before we can reach the Ford, but we are unable to travel faster.

The leaves blew upwards in sudden gusts of wind, and spots of rain began to fall from the overcast sky. Then the wind died away and the rain came streaming down. They trudged along as fast as they could, over patches of grass and through thick drifts of old leaves; and all about them the rain pattered and trickled. They did not talk, but kept glancing back, and from side to side.
