Mira hesitated, searching her mind for a song. Suddenly her eyes lit up and she said quietly to Willow, "Do you know this tune? It is quite common." Putting her flute to her lips, she began to play a merry, fast song. Willow recognized it soon enough and her bow danced over the strings on her fiddle. The pair of hobbits soon forgot all about the scream of pain as they were embraced and lost in the music.

The remainder of the crowd that had not rushed outside danced and cheered, clapping their hands in time with the music. Two young hobbits began to jig merrily. The crowd roared even louder, clapping their hands as one and egging on the jigging hobbits. Mira paused playing, grinned, and resumed happily. She loved playing her flute; her heart soared when the music lightened others' spirits.

The tune went on, and when it finished Mira sucked in a long breath. She turned to Willow, saying, "There, that certainly lightened the mood! You choose the next song." She looked over her flute, making sure it was not damaged in any way, and waited for Willow's choice.
