Can Wobbit: Can looks at the old house again and was quite
satisfied about what he found out, when he hears a soft tapping of hobbit feet
behind him
Fiesty Lotus stealthily slides up to Can.
Can Wobbit turns around, seeing Fiesty approaching slowly.
Fiesty Lotus: "Greetins Can."
Can Wobbit: "Greetings Fiesty"

The Abandoned House |
Fiesty Lotus: "You got sumthin?"
Can Wobbit: "I think I found something very
interesting
Fiesty Lotus: "Good."
Can Wobbit: "this old house seems deserted ..... The
front door is locked. "
Fiesty Lotus: "Oh, that be interestin."
Can Wobbit: but I climbed up on the balcony ... and that
door ....." (he grins).
Can Wobbit: “that door they did not lock. It´s open. "
Fiesty Lotus: "Oh my, that was clever."
Can Wobbit: "I explored the house ...... and it seems
that it has been a long time, since anyone lived in there."
Fiesty Lotus rubs her hands in glee.
Can Wobbit: "thick layers of dust, and barely
furnished, it is ..."
Can Wobbit: "... but I think, it might make a good
place to hide for all of us, until we find out more about this town and its
inhabitants.”
Fiesty Lotus nods.
Can Wobbit: "Want to get inside, and have a look at
the house?
"Fiesty Lotus: "Yes, indeed."
Can Wobbit: "Let me get up to on the balcony again,
and see if I can open the front door from inside .... And if not, I´ll pull you
up with my rope. "
Can Wobbit looks at the Hobbit .... and smiles:" I
don´t think, I´ll be able to throw you up there, little Lady. "

The Balcony |
Fiesty Lotus: "I be a hobbit- I kin climb."
(grins.)
Can Wobbit: "Let me try to open the front door, before
you start climbing ..... People might wake by the bumping sound, if you
fall. "
Fiesty Lotus whispers "OK."
Can Wobbit climbs down the stairs inside the house, and
walks across the room to the front door."
Can Wobbit finds a heavy bolt on the door, and slowly pulls
it aside.
Can Wobbit: with a gentle shrieking sound, it moves, and
gives the door free.
Can Wobbit carefully opens it, just a small gap, and waves
Fiesty to come inside"
Fiesty Lotus slides into the house and looks around.
Can Wobbit whispers " See ...”
Can Wobbit: "We will have to put oil on that damn
bolt."
Fiesty Lotus: "Yes, hope we can find some."
Fiesty Lotus looks at the dust on the table. She sees the
old tattered books and gets excited.

Fiesty Finds the Books |
Can Wobbit follows Fiesty´s eyes.
Can Wobbit: "I think there must have been a lored or
wise person living in here"
Fiesty Lotus: “Books! We kin see what this world is like
from em! This be a find."
Can Wobbit points at the cupboard:" Do you see that
brain in the glass, Fiesty?”
Fiesty Lotus looks at what Can is pointing at and
shudders.. (She stares at the brain and then turns away.)
Can Wobbit climbs up the stairs again to the upper floor.
Fiesty Lotus follows Can up the stairs.
Can Wobbit: "There´s few windows up here, and pillows
and blankets, even a bed."
Fiesty Lotus: "Good, though I would air them
mattresses out some."
Can Wobbit: "Maybe at night?”
Can Wobbit steps forward, and jumps on the mattress.
Fiesty Lotus waves her hands at the dust the mattress gives
off.
Can Wobbit: a cloud of dust rises from it at once, and
makes Can cough.
Fiesty Lotus shakes her head and smiles."

Soft but Dusty |
Can Wobbit smiles at Fiesty ... " Soft though."
(He adds with a grin).
Can Wobbit: "What do you think, Fiesty, might this
make a good hideaway for us all?
Fiesty Lotus: "Yes, it will do fer us. We jest have to
be careful."
Can Wobbit: " I agree, it will be difficult, to bring
the dragon in here secretly.
Can Wobbit: "And even more difficult, to keep
Dangerfae from doing nonsense."
Fiesty Lotus: “Yes, after dark. The dragon may not want to
come though. I dunno. We already have them airboats on alert from his messing
about."
Can Wobbit: "I think he will come, as soon as Talia
will be inside.’
Can Wobbit looks at Fiesty:" We should hurry, to go
back to the others, as long as it is dark, I would not want to take too much
risk of being discovered."
Can Wobbit: "And we cannot wait too much longer."
Fiesty Lotus: "Alright. The sun is comin up."
Can Wobbit: It´s already beginning to dawn."
Fiesty Lotus: “Let’s go.”
Can Wobbit: "Let´s ... but let me tie a rope to the
bolt first, so we can open the door from outside.] Fiesty Lotus: "Yes, a
rope be a good idea."
Can finished fixing their entryway and they departed to
join the others.
