After
taking leave of lovely Elanor, I rode out to Bree to meet my beautiful friend Uruviel, or Ru, for short.
We supped merrily at The Prancing Pony, and have just now ridden back to Buckland to begin her first tour of the Shire, me being her tour guide. She was so pale
last I
saw her, after that
horrible ordeal, it's a pleasure to see her hail and in good health, and even more lovely to behold still.
So, we're here in Buckland, eastern most part of the Shire. Home of the Brandybucks. And I'm not sure if Merry Brandybuck is still being a grouch about letting the family stay at Brandy Hall, so we're heading back to Aunt Asphodel's. I wonder if anyone else will be home?
