They were early up the next morning. Before the sun rose they were ready to departure. Only one thing or one person held them back, Merenwen. They let their friend's horse go. "Go now, and find your way home," Lostlondwen whispered in its' ears.
Few minutes later they were all ready. Lostlondwen and a couple of others, lay flowers and said their last goodbyes to the elf, and mounted their horses.
"Bree is 180 miles away, we better get moving!" Elentari said in a low, but comanding voice.
They rode slowly out of the camp, Loslondwen didn't look back, none of them did. The heavy atmosphere hadn't lighten up and few of them said anything. All was very quiet when they turned west, and came upon the Great East Road.
In front was Elentari and lead the way, second was the dwarves and then the male elves and last Rowan, Ewinda and Lostlondwen.
"This is going to be a long day," Lostlondwen said and gave a sigh. Ewinda looked at her and gave a nod. She seemed pleased to be on the road again. In fact they all were, they just didn't show it.
"Bree? I've never been there before," Ewinda muttered after a while.
"I've never been to the Blue Mountains before," Lostlondwen replied.
They both gave a short laugh and looked at Rowan who didn't understand what they were laughing at.
"What?" he said, and got quite red.
