Birdland has just left Hobbiton.

Given the choice between Servant or Master on any noble quest, I would definitely go for the Servant role.

OK, so you don't get to dress the best and you have to serve at dinner, but you get to go through the whole quest experience and - 9 times out of 10 - actually survive!

Then you can go home again, write a book, sell the movie rights, and have lots of people interviewing you, asking "What was he REALLY like?"

Usually your social status rises, and you get some kind of financial compensation as well, so a servant on a decent quest can be pretty much set for life.

So get out there and slay that windmill, Master! I'm right behind you, holding the horses and breaking out the bandages.
