Mithadan's post

29 Nárië

As they proceeded on towards Stock, Mithadan and Rose exchanged a few thoughts. Bird listened in silence; she had not entirely approved of allowing Rose to travel to Bree on this errand.

"Rose," said Mithadan. "You may travel with us for now, but you must not be seen in our company. Before we reach Bree, we must part so that we do not arrive together. I'm told there is a fine Inn there and you should head for it when you enter the town."

He withdrew his purse and handed Rose several coins. "Here. This should allow you to stay at the Inn for some time. You may do your share of snooping, particularly among the Hobbits, but keep in mind that we will not be able to come to your aid should you find trouble. Bird will visit you now and again to exchange news."

Rose looked up at Mithadan with concern and a bit of annoyance. "Other than snooping," she asked. "What will my role in this play be?"

Mithadan's face grew grave. "If Bird and I get into trouble, it will be up to you to find help..."
