Merry is here! Merry is here, oh good God Merry is here! I never thought I'd say that, but, hey, you learn something new every day! Well they came in blowing trumpets acting all that. Then Merry had to go ruin it all by destroying some big Black Rider---oh good for him! Isn't he so great! Well, not really! He's all dead looking in the Houses of Healing...what a show-off...going all "hero" on me. No more "Prince of Halflings" for me! The war starts soon...hair slowly growing back and well--I miss Buckland.
