Pio --

Sorry about giving your ship away!! But I'm still confused. This is regarding the fanfiction revisions so there's no urgency on this, but I'm trying to figure it out in my head.

I'm trying to remember this-- In the original story we each had a share because we won the ship from the REG adventure. When we got rid of the REG adventure, I know that changed totally.

I know we decided that, at the beginning of the story, I had a geneological book from Bilbo with reference to the Sea Hobbits in the margins. And when my Aunt died, I got a small inheritance from her. I decided to take that money and try and get a ship to go chasing after these Sea Hobbits. I went around to a bunch of captains who all turned me down. Mithadan was my last resort. And he agreed.

Did I put that forward to "rent" the Star for this adventure, or did I buy a share? I remember you said something about us meeting in a disreputable tavern!!! Cami must have been pretty desperate to go meet with you there.

Does any of this ring a bell? I have a rough draft which I did shortly after Mith did his intro. but I never got into ship ownership questions.

(Whoever he is, I still think the hobbits might want to meet this Man, especially because some would be inherently suspicious.)

Pio, will you tell the hobbits about the Man who will help lead the expedition when you speakn front of the Council?
