Gentrification of a Hobbit

[the_gneech]

Maedhroc, in his little tin helmet and baggy vest, found himself considered decidedly bumpkinish in Bree. Certainly, a stout spear and a heavy pack are just the thing for tromping around the countryside fighting wolves and brigands, but you're in town now, son! There are elves here, for goodness sake! You don't want to look like a hick in front of the elves, do you?

So to that end, Maedhroc found himself a barber and a tailor and got himself a makeover worthy of a sophisticated Shire gentle-hobbit such as himself.


Maedhroc at the sign of the Prancing Pony. Do you have any Grey Poupon?

Meanwhile, far to the west, Galadhalion is back in Goblin-Town, where he came upon a strangely familiar figure.


"Didn't I chase you all over the Bruinen Valley? Of course, you didn't have that ring at the time..."

Middle-Earth has many tales to tell. :)

If he has the ring on, why isnt he invisible??

I waited 3 hours around Goblin Town entrance and not one person shows up... meanwhile, you're doing the SIXTH quest that I have down there.... oi.

Oh, and Hobbit.... TUCK IN THAT SHIRT!

You don't wait around the Goblin Town entrance waiting, silly! You need to advertise! That's what /LFF and /GLFF are for!

Galadhalion, being L55, can almost solo Goblin Town these days, so I sent him down there to finish off his remaining quests there.

re: Gollum and the ring, maybe one of their medicine men could see into the spirit world and saw Gollum when he had the ring on.
