Yikes. It has indeed been months. Very well - when hobbit travellers saw a particular creature, and they reported what they had seen, the creature was so exotic that it would probably be dismissed as "news from Bree". So think what that creature may have been, and you'll be on the way there!

Hah! Grima the Wormtongue, in "The King of the Golden Hall" - Two Towers again.

MY turn? Very well.
