    Chapter 10: A Warm Welcome Page 193 of my book, "Nothing else could, of course, be suggested; so leaving the others Thorin and Fili and Kili and the hobbit went along the shore to the great bridge." This is a terrible line to read. This is fun line to read out loud. The multiple ands are fun, and the apposatives run well together. The song later on:
    "The King beneath the mountain
    The king of carven stone,
    the lord of silver fountains
    shall come into his own!"
    Was a lot of fun to sing. i did "da du du du du dah dah da du dud ud dah duh" which worked quite well through the whole song. The man knew how to write songs. It'll probably stick around in my "to sing to baby" list. If someone wants to hear me sing it, message me and i'll post it in pensieve.

    Overall its nice to be back to a chapter that is mroe fun and a little bit silly, and allowing us to recover, like the dwarves did.
