Chapter 3 Out of the Barrow, and back in it again.
Next morning Astrantinella has found Earl grey, he was not far in a old Burrow.He carries a bone in his jaws.. and was happily wiggling his tail to great us.
The Burrow was cold and damp, so we quickly return to the Campsite and ate a breakfast with our hobbit friend Bob.
Astrantinella and I packed our bags, and we strapped our treasure we found on our ponies and ventured our to Bree-town, with the coin we made from our relics,* those Breelanders and Scholars pay fair for them* , we had enough to spend a few weeks in the prancing pony.
We took a long break,… spending nights in the Prancing pony telling stories, listing to bards and musicians playing.. and with a good plate of food and a mug of ale we are contend for a while.
Some day’s past, and Astrantinella parted to go back to her family, taken care for her old mother, with a friendly hug we said our farewells at the Prancing pony.

I had only on more trip to make into the Northren Barrrows
I have heard talk in the inn that another group of travellers got lost, and some of the folk town ask me to look for them, because I’m become more of a expert of those dreadful area.
After some searching in the Mist I found the, and I found a new companion too..
A Hobbit lass named Sienna, she was also looking for riches.. * perhaps Barliman should stop telling this days of old about the Prince of Cardolan
Together we helped the folks at the Camp, and we ventured deeper into the Southern parts of the Barrow Downs,
We searched for a lost Sons.. but alas after we found one son, that was slain by the walking wights.
I found a journal of his account of his travel with his brother.. together we found the second son, but unfortunately his Lifeless body waked up.. it attacked us.
We barely made it back to camp alive.
Sienna told the old mother of the sons about what happened.. it was heart breaking. I could not say a word.
I lost my appetite in those Barrows, as now I saw how dangerous it would be to search for treasure..
Only one task we decided to do together. There are corrupted bears and trees near the border of the old forest at the Barrows.. that could endanger Buckland and Hobbits living there.
So we decided to set some of those trees alight and hunt some sick bears.
After our deed we return to camp, and we guided the folk back to Breetown.
Miss Siena was in good spirit when we walked on the Greenway to Breetown..
She did Spook me hidden behind a wall to prank me.
It’s her way to cheer me up and perhaps.. a bit odd, but we both had our scares in the Barrows. And perhaps being merry and light about it is a way to deal with our nerves.
Siena and I went for lunch in the Prancing pony, and we exchange in stories and thoughts.
She liked to Share on my travels as she wants to see the Mountains, and perhaps even the Elves.
I showed her my map, and told her that West of the Shire’a place called Ered Luin there are mountains, Dwarves and Elves..
my plan was to return to the Shire and to retire as a adventurer .. but Sienna did spark my Tookish mind for adventuring once again..
perhaps I go Yonder for some more adventure with my new
Companion.Siena the merry and brave adventures lass
