Sharya made her way slowly and quietly down to the common room. The festivities seemed to have died down. However, once she entered the common room, a scene of merriment greeted her.

"What's going on?" she asked a nearby hobbit.

This hobbit was somewhat drunk but managed to slur out the words. "Free drinks."

Sharya arched an eyebrow quizzically but seeing that she could not get any more information out of the obviously inebriated halfling she got herself a drink and sat down in a corner by herself.

The halflings seemed to be quieting down somewhat, most of them passing out on tables and chairs and even on the floor! Sharya was somewhat surprised but didn't say anything. She finished her drink and considered going to the kitchen to inquire about some food. However, the prospect of navigating through all the bodies wasn't too pleasing to her mind, so, deciding that she wasn't too hungry and could live one night without food, she took her leave and returned to her room.
