Carrūn has just left Hobbiton.
Pipe

Awyrgan finished his first glass and poured another. He looked up when Rochelle mentioined the corsairs and their "techniques." He nodded in assent. "They are effective." He looked towards the now dead Innkeeper. "He wasn't the best of men anyway." His tone was cool and calloused but it was obvious that the finding of the small man's body had bothered him.

He paused before he answered her next question. Somehow he had expected what he found and was not surprised at the need for some modifications in their planning. Prepare, Observed, Adapt. The words of his father swam through his mind briefly as he considered possiblities.

"I doubt many things will change, this was almost expected. We will proceed to the warehouses as planned, but we must proceed with additional caution." He held the bottle out to her but she declined. He grinned, pouring his third and final glass. Facing the dead man he raised his drink - "My compliments, the wine was fine as always." Turning back to Rochelle he spoke slowly. "I am going to stay here until it is as dark as possible, then I will take a brief walk to obvserve the area. Tomorrow we will decide the best way to get to the warehouses."
