A visit to Hobbiton...(pt. 1)

Recent Riddance!

View from a hilltop

Recent riddance from examinations propelled me to pack my bags,bid farewell to relatives and set foot on the road that led to The Shire. Troubled are you dear reader? Does your mind question the authenticity of my fore mentined statement?Be troubled no more for I shall tell you that I went to the shire for real and there is a road that leads to it... but only if you are a descendant of a wizard!

At a local pub in Hobbiton, I sat among the Halflings and in the midst of smoking pipeweed and drinking Ale (not me no thank you) I told them stories of the Wicked World Beyond.All sat stunned and then they asked me some more questions to which I gave answers,some eagerly and some hesitatingly.....

Telling Tales

One of the questions was that how had I travelled all the way from the Wicked World Beyond to Hobbiton.I replied truthfully that I was a student of Gandalf the grey and that i can tread across dimensions.Solace for which i searched all the dimensions, I could only find in Hobbiton.At once they felt flattered and made me another mug  of tea....(to be continued)
