We little folk have the wolves in some disarray . . .

Wolfy, wolfy, burning bright
In the inn yard late that night,
What brave Halfling's skillful eye
Assaults thy fearful symmetry?

Against what darkling deeps and skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
What little wings dared to aspire
To stop you cold with ash and fire?

Well, the two tall men have been posed a question. I'll be interested to see what your response is, Envinyatar.

Shall I wrap up the battle with the wolves or would you be able to do it?

I've put up a SAVE for a final post for the Inn battle. I'll probably move time forward a little too and have my two characters leave.

Is this OK with you?

Many thanks. Sounds good to me.

I foresee one wrap up post regarding the Wenda part of this story while it is at Fir Hill. Then I see another epilogue type post with Wenda back at the Green Man, dealing with her loss. I hope we can have a bit of a slow end like we had a slow beginning, with the highly exciting plot sandwiched between words of wisdom and joy and whatever else....

My bad....

I have finally filled in this save (#157), and placed another one at the end of the string for comments by the poor ravaged wolves.
