Frodo Baggins has just left Hobbiton.
Sting

"Two hours later and the guests are still arriving." Frodo Baggins commented as he nimbly dismounted his pony "You see Cahira, I told you we'd be all right."

Maggie Cahira Weiss The young lady Frodo adressed was assisted from her grey horse by another of their companions "Well, I had a right to be worried didn't I?"

Cromthal of Rathcoe snickered as he helped Maggie "Don't mind her she's just paraniod."

"All right everyone, maintan a little decorum." said a calm voice near them. "We at least made it, traffic was terrible!"

Frodo meanwhile eyed the cameras, banners and such "My it certianly is...crowded!" he said at a loss for words. "I almost wish it could have been sweet and simple like last years.

"yes, Frodo, but remember how last years turned out" said the elven voice again. "Frodo you lead us in, I think Liqua Mire and Master Cromthal should folow side by side, I'll bring the rear."

"The rear? You aren't shy are you Elrond?" Maggie quipped.

"Shy? No! Just wanting to keep an eye on the three of you so you'll stay out of trouble. I'm just hoping those Uruks are ONLY security guards. None of us are armed."

The four of them proceeded gracefuly in, resplendent in the costumes they had been working with for days. Frodo wore basically what he wore last year, A white linen shirt, burgundy breeches, purple velvet waistcoat, and his maroon jacket with dark green trim. On his head was a mithril circlet, and around his neck was a dwarf chain set with emeralds, amethysts, rubies, and cat's eye. On his left hand he wore his mother's silver wedding ring (He always wore that) and on his right a sparkilng diamond. And of course he never went anywhere without the white gem that queen Arwen had given him around his neck.

Maggie looked lovely in a brilliant white floor length dress with a three foot train. The dress itself was embroidered with golden starbursts, the hem, neckline and middle upper arm of the sleeves were done in red and gold embroidery. The rest of the sleeves were pleated and they were long and wide, hanging down to below her knees. Maggie also wore white leather shoes that laced up to her knees with gold ribbon. On the forefinger of her left hand she wore an amethyst ring, on the same finger on her right was an opal, and she wore a small silver Celtic knot ont he ring finger of her right hand. Her unbound curly hair which flowed down her back was adorned with silver circlet carved like flowers, every three flowers was a ring of smaller flowers surrounding a sapphire.

Cromthal of Rathcoe, the brehon had good but eclectic taste, and this day was no exception. He was wearing a long, bright green silk damask gown, his usual gold neck-ring, and yellow satin shoes that tied with ribbons. He wore his bardic girdle, which was little more than a length of cotton ropes woven in a diamond pattern fringed on each end, he had woven a srting or two of pearls into and strung some jewels on it. He had braided the sections of his hair just on front of his ears and pulled thime back around his head in a circlet fashion and threaded ribbons throught the braids. The rest of his hair had a scattering of elven jewels in it. On the middle finger of his right hand he wore a gold ring set with an emerald. Over all this he wore a light grey velvet hooded mantle with wide sleeves.

Elrond seemd simply yet regally dressed at the same time. He was dressed in a silver grey silk robe over another briliantly white robe that had wide sleeves as well but was cather at the cuffs. The only part you saw of the under robe were the sleeves because the sleeves of the grey silk were open halfway. A great jeweled chain, silver slippers, his gold wedding band (yes still wearing it) Vilya, and a small silver circlet completed the ensemble.

They paraded in, Frodo in front, Maggie with her hand lightly resting on Cromthal's arm, and Elrond behind them.
