Hardo grumbled irritatedly when Orlo breezed into the room and made absolutely no attempt to be quiet while he packed, despite the fact that Hardo was obviously trying to sleep. But, then, his whole stay in Rivendell had been like that. Everyone seemed so happy to be here with the Elves, even the Dwarves! Hardo couldn't see what the big deal was. In fact, he could have done without a lot of the singing and prancing around the Elves loved to do so much. It seemed to him that the Dwarh Mikhelm had the right idea by staying in his room as much as he could. Oh, well, at least they'd be leaving in the morning and maybe being on the road would cause the Elves to settle down a bit and not be so... rambunctious.

He rolled over to face the wall and try to get back to sleep, but Odo was snoring and the moonlight was very bright. He couldn't sleep.
Finally, he got up and sat outside in the moonlight for a while until he got sleepy again. Before he could get up and go back inside, however, he slumped sidways onto the lush grass and fell fast asleep.
