^^^^^^Erebor/Lonely Mountain^^^^^^

Frain sighed a very deep sigh as he saw the Elves over the hill. He had many sores on both his feet and rump, from both walking and riding. He was bored more than anything else during the trip.

I hope we get to have some real food now! Yelped the happy Curin.

Frain silently agreed with the thought. His mouth was dry and he had sores on his tongue and his teeth hurt, from eating so much dry and cold meat. He looked foward to lighting a fire up tonight.

As the band traveled a little faster now, excited to get to a resting spot for at least a while, Frain looked among the engineers. Curin and Burin were two of the six men he had been allowed to bring, and the others now laughed at another joke Burin threw out. Yet Frain knew that they laughed at him, not with him.

He looked over their heads, and yonder he saw the blonde heads and the green garments of the wood-elves. He also saw some Men of Dale among them. He was anxious to talk to anyone besides Burin for a while.

Frain hoped the fun would start now with the Elves.

When they reached the bottom of the hill, some of the dwarves unpacked a few minor things. It wasn't as if they were staying too long, of course. Frain's eyes caught a strange Elf, with a look of wandering and daydream in his eyes. Strange... Frain thought to himself.

Another Elf caught Frain's grey eyes. This one though, unlike the other, had a giddy smile on his face. He looked as though he could run around the world and not be tired when he got back.

I told you Elves were odd Glaven saw Frain stare.

Well, Glaven. I might be old and i might seem evil and sneeky, but my dear old father always told me not to judge a book by its cover. I believe that, don't you? Frain relpied with a smile on his usually grim face.

This might actually be fun... thought Frain to himself.
