Surprised to see a troupe of big folk at their gates, they start fumbling around with their helmets and point their spears at the party. Once they finally come to their senses, they release they are the transport for the Roughy River celebration. The halflings cheeks draw quite high and wide as smiles envelop their faces."Oh cheerio friends! You've made it, and not a minute too soon! Here, here, let's get you in! We'll get you in right quick, ya see. Oh glorious day!"The pair of guards crank open the gate, which is comically much larger than they could efficiently handle. "You must go at once to the town square, and meet with the master of ceremonies, Francis John II!"[/section]<img src="https://masteroflore.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/the-shire.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[section]As the party travels down the main country road through the gates, they start to pick up a crowd of halfling children bumbling along besides them. They look at the group with a combination of shock, awe, adoration, and adulation. They children are so small! (Little ones are affectionately called 'quarters' or 'quarterlings' and adolescents are called 'thirds' or thirdsies'.)Eventually they make their way to the town square, a clearing in between a conglomeration of a few small hills. There is a gazebo where a band sets up, a hand-made dance floor being laid in the middle. The smell of spit roasts and confections waft through the air. Vendors are still setting up shop up and down the side streets. The weather is simply divine for the Roughy River midsummer festival. All and all, everything seems just right for the upcoming festivities later this evening.They happen to see one halfling in particular, dressed to the nines in his halfling best, barking out various orders to some of the event staff. Eventually the large wagon and tow catches his eye, and his frown turns right upside down! He hurries over, nearly tripping over his own feet in excitement."How do you all do! Look's like my son came through again! Let me introduce myself!" He draws himself to his fullest height, with an unmatched sparkle in his middle-aged halfling eyes. "Me name's Francis John II, tonight's master of ceremonies. You all are undoubtedly the heroes of the day, and by what name may I call on each of you?" What a fabulous day![/section]<img src="http://media.wizards.com/2015/images/dnd/resources/Halfling-Rogue.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[sblock=OOC]Hey guys, welcome back.
