Dear Mother and Father,
I have become a member of the Inn League. This is a group of hobbits that promote the drinking of fine ales throughout the Shire and the whole of Eriador really. They have members in the oddest places. From Forochel in the icy north and Angmar, down to Breeland in the south. They have members in Ered Luin, Evendim and even the Misty Mountains, to name but a few of the odder places! But perhaps you will not even have heard of any of those.
There is a special event held during festivals by the Inn League. It involves riding around the Shire, visiting pubs and drinking beer at the local Inn League Representative. It is good I know the Shire so well! I have found several shortcuts that help me get to my destination the sooner. The members were very surprised to see how quickly I managed to finish the run!
The run starts at The Party Tree at The Hill. Mr. Chubb is still managing the ales there during festivals. He sends you off to the Plough and Stars in Brockenborings. From there you ride all the way to Stock and The Golden Perch Inn. Then you visit The Floating Log Inn in Frogmorton, The Green Dragon in Bywater and the Ivy Bush Inn in Hobbiton. Last on the list is The Bird and Baby Inn in Michel Delving. I have become so wellknown to the Inn League that I am allowed to enter the special members room inside The Bird and Baby Inn. I even got taught a special dance by them! And people say drinking leads to no good... well I have yet to experience any bad effects from ale. The Inn League has welcomed me with open arms, I suppose because I can hold my ale so well. Thank you Rua for teaching me to drink like a dwarf!
Your loving Zara
