"That would be me."
Avina spoke up, as she moved from the staircase into the room. What would the dwarf want with her? |

Farin tried to place himself in such a way that Caranthir would not be between him and the young woman. "I witnessed your skill and talent earlier today and find myself in a position where I may need someone with your skills soon. So I ask you, are you interested in aiding me in an adventure?" he added emphasis to that last word.

Avina paused a moment.
"What do you think, Caranthir? It could be fun." |

Caranthir looked at her scornfully. "The Dwarf was inviting you, not me. And what's more, your idea of 'fun' and mine differ." _________________ A path taken is paths forsaken.

"Woah there lass," the Dwarf spoke quickly, worriedly. "I'm sure you have your reasons for wanting to continue in the company of this Elf, but I'm not splitting my reward a third way." _________________ Delicious tea, or deadly poison?

"Look, Farin was it, I have known Caranthir longer than I have known you." She said, "and he really is a better archer than the tourney showed. He taught me how to shoot a bow not four days ago. Today was just luck."
She looked at Carinthar. She didn't want to go without him, she enjoyed his company. And she wanted to hear more about what was in his books...there had to be something interesting if he was always sitting with his nose in one.
She hoped, she could change his mind. |

The Dwarf shook his head, "Alright, you can bring him. But you'll split your half with him then. And he's your responsibility. I won't have an Elvish princeling costing me the reward." _________________ Delicious tea, or deadly poison?

"Why, precisely, are you so keen for me to go on this adventure?" Caranthir asked. "Adventuring is not really my sort of thing. That belongs to Dwarves, Men, Wizards and, on the rare occasion, Hobbits. I would much prefer to remain with my books, enjoying the comforts of civilization." _________________ A path taken is paths forsaken.

"Haven't you ever wanted to write your own books? To see these places and people you read about? To be in your own adventure?"
She looked at him.
"Maybe you'll discover things that aren't in your books." |

"Yes, your desire to continue being in the company of an Elf does defy all good sense," Farin added, unhelpfully. _________________ Delicious tea, or deadly poison?

"I'd like to think you a friend. And I do enjoy your company...Besides did your father not say it would be good for you to be 'daring'?" |

"We have known each other for less than a day. I can't help be bewildered by your obession with me, and my concerns - they are not yours. What's more, the Dwarf clearly does not want me along." _________________ A path taken is paths forsaken.

Farin nodded in strong agreement at the final statement. _________________ Delicious tea, or deadly poison?
