Hilde? Hilde? Helloooo? Oh, dear, where have you gone off to? The Trollshaws is the last place I want to be alone in! Hilde??
She can't be that far away, even thought I've been terribly slow the past several days. Perhaps I can catch her again today. No rest for the weary! Or the muddy and footsore, either!
