[Child of the 7th Age]

Cami came forward smiling. In her left hand, she held aloft a list waving it back and forth. A sudden thought flashed through her mind. She'd compiled endless numbers of lists on their trip--lists of clues and supplies, lists of dead and living hobbits, dozens of lists of things to do--yet this was probably her very last one. She instructed the children to hold it up as she read off her notes, explaining what each square meant. When she finished, the youngsters gently laid the quilt down on the soft grass, and attached the list so others could come and read it:

List of memories

Mithadan: Then Mithadan and the Elven folk stepped forward, and raised a new sail upon the mast. And Lo! the company beheld a glowing 6-pointed star, surrounded by an arc of Elven Blue with star-rays of mithril, and the four compass points surrounding all. The wind filled the sail and the star danced. "The Lonely Star" responded with a leap like a dear. The journey had begun.
