"How long until we reach the halfway marker to Dale Pearl?" asked a small Hobbit while dropping a pile of twigs by a fire.
"We already have, Mayla." replied another Hobbit who was slightly taller then the first "We should reach Dale by sundown tomorrow."
"Really? That is extraordinary!” remarked Mayla while stooping to sit next to a large Dwarf. “Yes it is,” replied Pearl
“Your Dwarf friend, Grundin, surly got us to this point at record time which....” “Humghph” interrupted the Dwarf lounging beside Mayla. His sharp gray eyes seemed to penetrate the fire as he spoke “Well don’t go giving me all the credit! We have the strong backs of the ponies and those three lugs.” Grundin gestured to three sleeping Dwarves who were snoring loudly.
The Hobbits chuckled as they watched the three Dwarves sleep.
"Nevertheless...." said Mayla while turning back to Grundin "I would have never been able to make this trip without you! I am very glad that Bilbo insisted that you travel with me before...." She stopped their half wondering.
"Yes, yes. I know what you were going to say." Said Pearl
"You were going to say 'before he disappeared'."
Mayla smiled "Yes, you are right, that was what I would have said. It's just that I can't help but wonder about him."
"Well," replied Grundin as he gazed into the dark velvet sky that seemed to be dancing with stars. "You will have to stop wondering about it tonight! We have along day ahead of us and I can't have tired, distracted Hobbits on the journey." Grundin secured his cloak around his shoulders and leaned on the log behind him.
Mayla and Pearl did the same with their green cloaks. Pearl chucked once more while turning to Mayla. “Grundin is right, we should get as much sleep as possible.” Mayla agreed and the two Hobbits said their good-nights to Grundin while attempting to make themselves as comfortable as possible on the cool floor of the wood. After a few moments, the only sound in the wood was the heavy snoring of the three sleeping Dwarves.
