Estella graciously thanked the bartender for serving the fresh round of drinks. The elves thank her and she held up her mug in a toasting fashion.

She sat back and took a large drink of her ale as Lothaniel enquired about the Shire. Wiping her mouth with the back of her hand, she started, “Well, we’ve had some strange folk coming across the borders, since the rules have been relaxed.” She wanted to say such as yourselves, but she kept that to herself. “Tommy Hornblower, my second cousin once removed on my mother’s side, is a bounder in the north. He says there’s an abundance of non-hobbit folk traveling through. The Bolger’s, Bungo and Aldarida who live next door to me, said their son Ted told them…” Only taking an occasional break for a sip of ale, Estella continued to fill the elves in on current affairs in the Shire. Before she knew it, forty-five minutes has passed and her mug was dry.
