" I think I didn't introduce myself yet. My name is Durmán", he said and bowed gently to the girl.

Laurie smiled and watched Durmán enthusiastically start in on the stew. Laurie waited on a few more customers and was quite shocked at the number of people gathered. And more kept coming in! She began to wonder how Pio was going to find rooms and food enough for them all. Pio looked rather involved in writing something down however, so Laurie decided not to bother her. After handing out another cup of warm tea, she returned back to where Durmán was now tackling the warm bread.
"Durmán, what brings you to the Shire? I had always heard that it was supposed to be a quiet place, but since I have arrived here, the inn has only become more busy! I cannot imagine what is bringing all these people to this peaceful land."
