Rave looked over at Skippy who seemed to be very happy he was able to play his flute.
"Aye, music is a wonderful thing," she said to him. "and it is always quite a joy to hear new songs from other lands. I doubt that anything in Rohan could match up to the songs of the Elves. Do not get me wrong, in Rohan there is many skilled musicians. The Elves have always just thrilled me with the beauty of their sound."
Rave sat listening to the conversations around her. Her thoughts suddenlt turned to Melimo in the stables. A long time she had been in the Shire, yet Rave had almost forgotten of her presence due to all the commotion of the inn.
She stood quietly and addressed her company. "Quite sorry, but I must excuse myself for a short moment." she said. "I must tend to my steed, Melimo, in the stables."
With the last breath of her words, Rave quickly exited the inn and headed for the stables where Melimo stayed. She sat down over on a stool by the steed. As she brushed the soft hair on Melimo's neck, Rave hummed a soft tune she heard some Elves singing on her journey.
