The Lonely Star -- Chapter 4 - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Bird watched in delight as the Hobbrim overran the Lonely Star, exploring their new, temporary "home" as if they had discovered a brave, new world.

This is what all the trouble and strife had been for. To preserve a long-forgotten branch of the Free People. Of course, they would be "forgotten" again, perhaps even by Birdie, if what Pio and Child said was true. But she felt like she would always remember the emotions she felt this day - even if she didn't remember the reason for it.

Then she spied Angara. Bird's eyes narrowed as she glared at the insufferable Wyrm. "I could be a better Dragon than you with one hand tied behind my back!" she thought to herself.

The Dragon's golden head turned towards the skin-changer, and her eyes whirled with amusement and challenge. Bird got no message in her mind, but eyes said it all.

"We'll see, Changling."
