Nurumaiel has just left Hobbiton.
Shield

You have walked 160 miles.
You have passed Bree (152).
You are only 4 miles from Chetwood Forest.
You still have 298 miles to Rivendell.

Bree was the chief village of the Bree-land, a small inhabited region, like an island in the empty lands round about. Besides Bree itself, there was Staddle on the other side of the hill, Combe in a deep valley a little further eastward, and Archet on the edge of the Chetwood. Lying round Bree-hill and the villages was a small country of fields and tamed woodland only a few miles broad.

Wow, four miles today! It was a beautiful three-mile trail through the woods, all uphill in the blazing sun, but Strider pushed us on relentlessly. After that we did one more mile, but the sun, lack of water and rest, and those monstrous uphills had taken a lot out of us, and it took one hour to walk a mile.

A soup of a kind was made for lunch. We're still unsure about dinner. Strider wants us to walk two more miles before night falls. I don't think that will work, though.

And one more thing... I will be updating the mileage list once again, and if your mile record is not in your FROM: space, you will sadly be overlooked, so please do that to make the job easier.

Thank you!
