Arien took a deep breath and stepped out onto the stage, with a full glass of coke and rum in one hand and the Downie award in the other. After the little scene Mith made when he apparently fainted and The Saucepan Man had seemingly beaten the poor Wrag creature to almost death with his iron the crowd had calmed down and were back to their usual rowdy selves. She walked straight to the podium, her heart pounding, why was this so hard to do? She took a little sip from her glass as she reached the podium. Arien settled both items down on its glass top and brushed her hair out of her face.

“Hello Barrow Downs!!” she shouted into the mic. This was followed by a few minutes of shouting and cheering , during which she waited patiently. “I am here to present the H.E.R.O.S award. For those of you who are no associated with them, H.E.R.O.S stands for Help Eradicate Rasty Orcs Society.” she paused and was greeted by a loud cheer from the audience and nasty looks from the orcs guarding the doors. She shrugged, “Over the years H.E.R.O.S has helped those small villages in danger of eradication in the hands of those evil orcs…..” she was greeted by a couple of boo’s from the guards.

“Oh stop your whining, its true!” said a random voice from the crowd.

“Thank you, this award will be presented to the Downer for their outstanding service in leading and executing the elimination of 15,000, yes you heard me right 15,000 orcs with the assist of fellow downers!” Arien was greeted by more cheers from the crowd.

“Of course, this needed great planning and although some of the company died, *cough Belegond cough*, he did an amazing job in saving Erebor! So Himaran this award is for you!!! Cue music!”

Michael Jackson, Heal the World Starts to play, and the crowd starts to chant Himaran, Himaran.

Himarans Post

Himaran stepped forward, gladly accepting the award from Arien. "Thank you, I had never dreamed of getting downy. And, surprisingly, it wasn't just for doing something stupid!.

I'll make this short, because we have many other awards to give out! I'd like to give a note of gratitude to all the members of my group. Without them, I would never have defeated the army, or finished the rpg for that matter. Also, A special thanks to my brother, Carrun, for introducing me to the Barrow-Downs. Keep playing in those rpgs!!!"

With that, he left the stage, to the rousy applause of the audience.
