The Barrow-Downs' Third Birthday Party and Downie Awards

[HerenIstarion]

The celebrations already clamouring on for several hours, a tall man appeared by the end of the red carpet. He came on foot, marks of tire on his face, though neatly dressed, his clothing all shades of grey, and sparks of irony in his eye. The Uruk guard stopped him:

-And what ye may be doing here?
-Well, I suppose I'm willing to enter
-And who yer may be, than?
-HerenIstarion must be the name
-Yer? Here? It can't be, yer never reach out of them Quotes and Books forums. And I hear him H-I even ain't coming there no more.
-Well, there are times, and I happen to be him H-I, as you name me. So let me in

That ringed true somehow. The Guard backed, and let the man through, who, entering the hall, immediately slipped to the bar, ordered the beer and quitely placed himself in the dark corner, unnoticed by the most of the crowd.
"It have to be a good show" thought the man and sipped at his beer
