I paid a visit to da ol' kin-house dis morning to deliver a fresh batch o' tarts to ye youngin's. And to check in on my mushrooms. Which by the way are starting to exhibit some strange markings on them. I may have ta pull em all out and start fresh. Oddest thing. I coulda sworn I saw something move from the corner of my eyesight, but it was probably just a groundhog or something.
Anyway, when I left the tent I saw a Dwarf sleeping under the picnic table under his shield.
I shoo'ed him away with my pitchfork, but if you see him again, let me know and we'll set a trap for em.

You know... funny thing about this. I was in there yesterday looking at some of the new trophies people had set in there. And I was a little hungering so I go to that lock up where we keep the pies and tarts. And I thought a few were missing... I know its in the shire, and ya don' know whose cousin or uncle or grand-pappy may come over and dig through our closet... But this was a lot of pies. And my firs' thought was - looks like a dwarf or two was in here tryin' to eat off a hang over! Mhhh...
Then I tried out the kegger and woke up in that pig-sty in Budgeford. But ain't that just repeatin' myself?

What would a dwarf be doing sleeping under a picnic table? Interesting really. Perhaps this eve i shall take a ride to the kin house and inspect this for myself. And what did he look like master Onyx? I am always ready for a good mystery myself.
As for your mushrooms, i think that may be my fault. (shuffles her feet nervously) My little sparrow Bruce was being quite a scamp and flew into the tent before i could talk him out of it. He got quite excited and managed to leave something *ahem* behind. I don't think that crop of mushrooms is used to that kind of fertilizer. But anyway....i am quite sorry and do apologize for Bruce as well. Please let me know if there is anything i can do to replace the crop.

So do tell, some says we all look alike... but what did this dwarf look like? Short of beard or shaggy and wry?

He was Big of chest... shaggy/unkept beard and dark of skin, with my failing eyesight, that's bout all I could tell. When I shooed him away he muttered.. Bo Bob Run... Bo Bob Run... Bo Bob Hide...
*Shrug*
Anyhows... I tried digging up the mushrooms this morn' and the oddest thing. One of them had green slimy roots about 6 inches deep! I ain't nuver seen such craziness. Oh well's... so I dumped them all into the stream and planted some new ones.

Feh! We've dealt with Helchagm before, we'll deal with it again. I'll go grab a spade and a pitchfork.

Well having dealt with an army of dumb dwarves in my time I'd say he is like those slackers sleeping while the canal always springs leaks! They have ONE job and they fail to put the pestle on the cracks before it begins to leak. His name is clearly Bo Bob or somethin like that and he is running from his foreman! Who surely will give him justly deserved lashes for sleeping on the job. But whats he doing in The Shire I wonder?
Now this tentacle thing, that'd be a big problem. You know the half-wit Porter said something last week about some strange new mushrooms in his yard. I heard he et them then passed out after crouching on all fours like a cave-claw and howling a bit. And some say he hasn't been as right since. Well... not that he ever was... but you know what I mean...

<Walks up to the kin house and sees a note nailed to the kin-house door>
<written in a child-like hand>

So now I'll have to hear about this down at Thorin's Pub. "Oh you take over some fancy little band an' ya got my good for nothing rock-breaker hiding out in your hobbity hole. Wha's next Hrafnr? Elves?"
And how did someone like this get in. Well, best we go in and have a look around. I doubt he's more dangerous than a shrew but I'll bring the axe just in case...
*creaks open the door and peers around inside*
