For those who missed the Snowed Inn, here is a brief synopsis:

Mellonin is a servant-girl in Minas Tirith. Mellondu, a young blacksmith-in-training, is Mellonin's younger brother. Both grew up in Gondor and are servants in Minas Tirith. Mellondu has disappeared, and Mellonin is looking for him, but doesn't know where to start.

Meanwhile a young blacksmith has arrived in Rohan with no clear idea who he is. He calls himself "Mellon". Several snowball fights later he is feverishly, deliriously sick. He awakens thoroughly convinced he is Amroth, Nimrodel's long lost love.

It seems like a simple case of delirium and delusion-- but then, why does the young blacksmith suddenly demonstrate elvish customs, elvish skills, and elvish loyalties?

Feel free to talk to him and see what you can find out.
