The Inn was back to normal. People were again talking, singing, eating, and drinking. Though there were a few surprises: first a dwarf-maid (which is rare in this part of middle-earth), and then the Wargs.
"What's next? Orcs wishing to tell their tale about Mordor? Or maybe talking oliphaunts would come by and drink some ale," Sarah thought as she chuckled to herself.
Then she saw a maiden being taken away to the kitchen by Dwarin for breaking a rule or two. "Boy! This dwarf is quite tough," mused she.
"More iced tea Mr. Thunderhammer!...er...please." she said to the dwarf after Dwarin finished his business in the kitchen.
