Mirabella pressed against the wall out of eyesight of her prowling father. It was a miracle he let her go out that day, let alone help Olo with his plans, she did not want to cross him today.
Once out of her front garden, it was not much further to the Brandywine, and she ran quickly to where she was to meet Olo.
A small group of hobbits had already assembled, and she ran over to where she spotted Ferd.
'Mornin' cousin!' she smiled 'Ye be comin too?'
'Aye, wont it be grand?'. She heard her other cousin Ben pipe up 'Indeed! This will be some great adventure!' Mirabella nodded with glee. She felt wind blow her hair from her shoulders and looked up to see the frowning clouds in the distance. But they
did little but dent her concern. Pushing past the other hobbits, including some she recognised, she prodded Olo
'Well, when do we go then??'
