Cree and Avalon
Cree sat in the chair beside her old friends. It had been a while since Cree had seen Fainu and all she could think of was how much fun they had together. Cree remembered her trips to see him in Rivendell when her father would go talk with Lord Elrond. No matter what she had to go with her father. Cree would always make an excuse for why she had to go. Cree turned to face him. "Fainu what have you been doing since you left? When my father died I really needed you, but when I went searching you were no where to be found." Her words were sincere. She could tell something was wrong with him.
Perhaps he doesn't trust Hama. Why not? Hama is a good man. He was there for me when I needed him. Finally Cree decided to pull the hood from her cloak away from her face. She thought now since she was in the company of friends it was ok for her to show her face. After all she still knew someone was out there looking for her. Even after all these months Cree still felt guilty for her father dieing.
Cree stood up to get her a mug of ale when suddenly she felt dizzy. She knew once againt that her episodes were back. It was for some reason when she was around the hobbits that this happened. Avalon sat perched on a near by chair unitl she noticed something was wrong with Cree. Cree fell back in her seat when she failed to keep herself stable. Avalon hopped over to Cree's pack and got out a package and handed it to Cree.
Opening the package Cree placed a few pieces of the herb in her mouth. Even though the taste wasn't plesant still Cree knew it was what she had to do now. For her episodes to stop Cree was forced to eat the small plant.
