Holly heard the sounds of strife coming from down road. Bow in hand, she veered off the pathway, into the trees and made her way quickly and silently, as hobbits do, toward the source.

Seeing a figure just to her right, she crouched down, concealing herself behind a bush. She peeked through the foliage and saw that it was Arcon. She made her way stealthily toward his position and saw he was concentrating on the remaining attackers.

Dropping back a few paces, she crept to the edge of a small clearing to the right of Arcon. The attackers were now between her and the Elf. She could see them clearly from her hidden position.

She knew that once she stepped into the clearing she would have a straight shot at them. She nocked an arrow in readiness.
