"What brings me to the Shire?" Soronume repeated the question from Elentari and smiled at her, "is it so odd that an elf should be in the Shire Elentari?" Elentari laughed, "well, perhaps not so odd when they are out of a job".

"Out of a job? Perhaps, but you are a mentor now, are you not." Soronume smiled at the maiden. "Forgive me, I have not introduced myself properly, the lady Elentari gave but a brief introduction. Finduilas, was it not? I am Soronume, an old friend of your mentor here. We travelled together, with others, on a quest, now quite some time ago and although I had heard of her since, I have not had the pleasure of talking to Elentari since that quest culminated."

Finduilas seemed to accept this introduction but remained quiet and did not make eye contact with Soronume. She did however look upon him. She now knew he was an elf, but his appearance seemed to suggest otherwise. He was clothed in worn, earthy shades and a dark cloak hung about his shoulders. His hair was dark and hung about his chin, his eyes deep and dark.

"Soronume, you have not yet answered my question" Elentari smiled. He thought for a moment about his answer, then quietly spoke.

"I must confess, I am rather a regular here now. To the warmth of the inn anyway, I have ventured but twice into the land around. This inn is where I was first before your company befriended Eruwen and myself." Soronume paused and raised his drink to his mouth. Slowly he placed it back down on the table.
