Walk To Rivendell" aka "The Eowyn Challenge"

[Alatáriël Lossëhelin]

Before breakfast I go for... a walk...only this time I'm holding my coffee cup... and my coffee has Elven Cream in it.
Happy Adventures, fellow walkers. I'm waiting for you.

Raefindel: Congratulations on reaching Rivendell! Ummmm, Elven Cream! Save some for me...I'll be there soon. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

We are getting close to the Ford. Glorfindel and Strider are getting more and more anxious. They fear the Riders are close and will not allow a fire tonight. The River will protect us once we are safely across, but until then our peril will continue to increase.

--------------------

..often Glorfindel would halt and listen for a moment, if they lagged behind, and a look of anxiety clouded his face. Once or twice he spoke to Strider in the elf-tongue.

But however anxious their guides might be, it was plain that the hobbits could go no further that night. They were stumbling along dizzy with weariness, and unable to think of anything but their feet and legs...The hobbits were still weary, when they set out again early next morning...and they hobbled forward at the best pace they could manage.

"Our peril will be greatest just ere we reach the river," said Glorfindel; "for my heart warns me that the pursuit is now swift behind us, and other danger may be waiting by the Ford."
