Last night I went to The Shire again, and went in to Hobbiton. It seems like the hobbit folk were having a celebration. I don not understand what the celebration is for, but it was not my purpose of going to The Shire. I wanted to make sure that the Orcs weren't giving the hobbits any trouble. I did not see any Orcs last night near the hobbit folk. I do not think the Orcs are after any of the hobbits. What could the hobbits have that wouldn interest them? This further arouses my suspicions that they are after me. But how could they find out about my wherabouts so quickly? Could it be that I have been followed when I left Mirkwood? I deem that unlikely, as I have been taught well, and my eyes and ears are always on the alert. I am confused by the appearance of the Orcs. And I wonder why they would be in Hobbiton. I worry for the hobbits. They would be afraid of these Orcs, for they have never seen them before. Last night at the hobbit celebration I noticed a young hobbit girl. She was called Belladonna. She appeared happy on the outside, but I could see that she was troubled about something. It might be the Orcs. I could tell that it was the first time she saw Orcs. And yet I saw something else in her eyes, that she had seen more than Orcs. I wonder... Brilnedlorwen Elraralia
