BRANDY HALL. On Thursday, Thrimidge 7, 1445 S.R., BALTOBRAS Brandybuck whittled a piece of wood in front of the fireplace while BOLDIBAD Bolger slept soundly in a chair nearby. They were recovering from their first breakfast (and, as it turned out, their only breakfast). Boldibad awoke around the same time a small group arrived to await second breakfast. Among those were CHALCEDONY Took (with her young son, Torodac), Germimac Brandybuck (played by BRATTO), and Fadoric Brandybuck (played by TALVO).
Being true to the ways of hobbit kind, the small crowd gathered together around the fireplace to snack on gingerbread hobbits (prepared by Fadoric, moments before) and engage each other in friendly conversation. Balto’s wood-carving expertise started everything off as Torodac showed major interest in the unfinished wooden pony. Balto made a promise to supply Chalcy’s kids with figures, as quickly as he could carve them.
The conversation moved, then, to the well-being of Dharlon Took, Chalcy’s husband, and their plans for the near future. From there, it moved on to Germimac’s ambition to author a novel of intense mystery. He had been sitting quietly, shyly doodling in his personal notepad. But his description of the upcoming story delighted the hobbits to no end.
Suddenly, to everyone’s dismay, an assistant to the cook came into the room and announced that, due to a mistake in calculating the available stock of food, second breakfast would be delayed. To counter their hunger, the hobbits continued to munch on the cookies. Baltobras decided to make his leave to investigate the matter. Germimac, also, left the scene to take care of some things in his room, upstairs.
The talk turned to the deviousness of humans and whether or not they can be trusted. Soon, Chalcy’s adorable daughter, Ruby, arrived from upstairs. Chalcedony, being the considerate matron she is, secretly sent the lass into the kitchen to conjure up a tray of cinnamon buns, which fueled further conversation.
CICELY Gamwich arrived shortly thereafter. Being full of energy and excitement, she offered to relate a tale about a monstrous wolf, which she claimed to had come into contact with in the past. As though a member of the celebrated Shire Players, she acted out her story as she told it, and quickly charmed the older hobbits.
Chalcedony spoke, also, of the time she was attacked by a wolf, and the account was chilling, to say the least. When the cook’s assistant returned to announce that second breakfast was to be canceled, those still present eventually sauntered off to seek food, and Boldibad was unable to fight off sleepiness, returning to a solid snooze in the comfortable chair.
