It took a bit of doing, but now I can officially say that I’ve been to Desai at least once!

… Wow. Finally here. It’s so strange - it’s almost unreal, going to a place you’d never thought you’d be. I hope it lives up to my expectations…

(Even if customs got a little pushy with me.)

No time to waste, though. I’m on a mission!

A mission, eh? We’re on a mission, too! It’s a long one, I’ll give ya tha’. We’ve been walkin’ for days and days and days now with no food at all well maybe a little but not enough for a proper meal at least tha’s what we think because Big Folk don’t eat as much as we do I expect so we have to find stuff but there’s loads of food here have you tried everything yet I haven’t!

[myonepromise]

Mine's been a long one, too... I hope that I can find the people I'm looking for here!

... Wait, you haven't had food for days and days!? That's not good at all!

[tookery]

... you lost them? SO DID WE! Where’re you off to, then? If it’s anywhere near the Shire, I think we can point you to it! It’s only Merry an’ me around, but if we can figure out which way’s North or South, you’ll be there in no time!

FOUR WHOLE HOURS!! it’s terrible, just horrible horrible stuff. Gandalf never let us eat more’n everybody else, ever.

To be honest, I'm not really sure exactly where I'm going. I'm just trying to get there! If that makes any sense... If you see a tall boy with white hair, and another boy with pointy brown hair, please tell me!

Who did you loose?

[tookery]

Tha’ it does!! Same for me. I kind of understand it all now ... But I didn’t much, then! I’ll keep on the look-out for ‘em, sure I will. And if you ever see a big wizard with a pointy hat or a big man with dark clothes or a big man with yellow hair or a short dwarf with this big axe or a hobbit with dark hair who’s always with this other one with a pan, tell me or Merry an’ we’ll find ‘em sooner!

Everyone! ... and food.

Ahh, it’s all right! Merry’s here now and he never lets me go hungry. I guess if Gandalf isn’t here ta’ box our ears we can have second breakfast again!

[myonepromise]

Thank you so much! I'll make sure to look for your friends, too. I hope you find them soon.

...But, um. What's a hobbit?

1/2!

[tookery]

what’s a ... hobbit?

2/2!

[tookery]

ME, OF COURSE! What’re you, then?

[myonepromise]

I-I'm a human girl?

[tookery]

Big Folk. Tha’s all right! We met one’a them once who turned out ta’ be more’ve a hobbit at heart than a man. It’s okay with us! you’re nice until you call us children. we’re grown up too, only shorter!

[myonepromise]

Oh, I get it now!

Oh, I meant to introduce myself but I was in too much of a rush... I'm Kairi, nice to meet you!

[tookery]

Helloooo Kairi! The name’s Pippin. well, it’s actually peregrin, but only me mum calls me that. or other people when they’re angry at me. So Pippin’s just fine!

[myonepromise]

Pippin, then!
