The Green Dragon Inn - Part 3

[ElenCala Isil]

There was something mysterious about the hobbit lass, but Eruanna did not let on. There was a myriad of hobbits at the inn on this particular time, but there was no way that the hobbit could have been lost in the crowd. For one, she had beautiful blonde hair, like a stream of flowing gold. Her eyes, green as emeralds. And moreover, there was a connection between Eruanna and the hobbit.

Eruanna was shaken from her search when she heard a clatter. She looked up slowly, half-expecting to see the hobbit-lass, but instead it was another hobbit, and an elf maiden aiding him. She went back to her drink, thinking no longer on the subject.

Slowly, her hand reached across the table, and picked up the letter. She opened it up, and read it to herself over and over. She gazed longingly at the golden ink, and beautiful calligraphy spelling out “My Dearest Eruanna,” deep, deep in her thoughts she heard the melody forming. It became louder, clearer and clearer. Eruanna raised her head, awakening from her thoughts, and she could hear the melody beside her.

There stood the hobbit, singing the song that Eruanna sung a while before.
