Collette speared one of the muffins from her sack with a sharp stick and roasted it over the warm fire.
"You've gained weight" Thengise observed at her. She looked down. "So I have." she said a bit vaguely. "Your not going back to Bree are you?" she burst forth. "I miss the Shire." she said, oblivious to the fact her muffin was now on fire. Jecht reached over and pushed it out of the fire for her. "Your going back?"
"Cant. Ive got a death warrant there remember?"
"Death warrant?! You??" Jecht said, his mouth hanging in disbelief.
"Yep" Collette said, wrinkling her nose and throwing the charred muffin to the side.
"For what???"
"Its getting late." Collette said, forecing a yawn.
"'night" and crawled beneath her cloak, leaving Jecht and Thengise to themselves.
