"So, Mr Ferumbras - can I ask you what sort of things it is that you invent? I am curious..." Ferumbras came quickly with a reply as he followed Aman, looking for the three hobbits. "I mostly just invent things that I see a need for. Practical stuff that makes sense. And I also always try to keep them simple for ease of use for the customer." Ferumbras said with a grin, and continued, "Now, this one, is a sort of bin that sits above the stove, and is filled with sand. In the case of a fire, all you do, is pull a latch, and.. poof! sand comes falling down on the fire , quickly and efficiently putting it out."

Ferumbras talked with an air of pride when he spoke about this invention, he was quite proud of it. He looked to Aman's face to see if he could find a hint of interest.
