Nuru saw the hobbit lass step into the inn and ask for breakfast. Snatching up a plate and filling it with eggs, sausage, and toast, the Elf hurried out and approached the lass standing at the counter.
"Here's some breakfast, maid," she said, smiling. "You look hungry. If you'd like something to drink as well just call me." Bringing her voice down so Pio wouldn't hear her, she added, "We're giving Miss Pio over there a rest. She's been running about for ever so long, and she's exhausted. Find a seat and enjoy the inn."
That being said, Nuru raced back to the kitchen to save the toast from being burnt, winking at Rie and Pio as she passed.
