Collette's protestive shrieks rented the air. "Let go!" she flailed helplessly for about an hour, and finally gave up and fell asleep on Aranel's shoulder.
When dark, Aranel heaved her off, like a sack to the ground. Collette snorted in anger from merely being stirred away from her dreams.
She had been back in the Shire with Faye- at a party (drunk) - one of her most favored pastimes....
Aranel grunted evilly as rain began to pour down upon them and dampened the fire to a dull smelly smoke.
