XXOXX Miss AudreyBear

It had been six years since Baya Baggins had woken up in a hospital tent and discovered she couldn't see. She had visited Erabor only once since then, and her visit had taken all by surprise. They hadn't even known she was there until Ori found her in the library, being read to by an attendant.

"Baya?" Ori had asked tentatively.

"Ah Ori, there you are dear. That will be enough thank you sir, come help me to my room."

"You room?" Ori had stammered as Baya gathered her things.

"Floor three room eight, two doors down from yours." Supplied Baya as Ori took her arm.

Thorin in fact, was the last one to know she was there; and this came as a surprise seeing as he was king. He had been sitting at the table, his head in his hands, staring at a contract when the door had been thrown open and in marched Baya, a pig at her heels.

"Baya?" Asked Thorin breathlessly.

"Oh Thorin please, do stop standing there, gaping like an idiot," snapped Baya as she moved carefully through his chambers.

"What is that?" Asked Thorin following the pig with his eyes.

"What is what I am blind Thorin, in case you don't remember."

"What is the pig.. what's it doing here?"

"It's a pig, and it's my guide is it dark in here Thorin? Do remember I can't see." She took a step forward and tripped landing hard on her knees

"Oh dear it's as bad a Dawlin said, his house is a disaster," said Baya to no one in particular. She climbed to her feet and began moving slowly through his house dusting, sweeping, and cleaning, always with the pig at her heels guiding her around the furniture. Making sure she didn't trip. Thorin trailed after her. He finally plucked up enough courage to ask her the question that had been bugging him when she had begun making dinner.

"Baya how did you get here?"

"I walked." Baya had been busy rolling out a pie crust. When she knocked an apple of the counter she never missed a beat. catching it before it hit the ground and setting it with the others.

"Well I assumed you walked here, but how did you find your way here?"

"Same way I did before. I stopped at Rivendell, Beorns, Mirkwood, Dale ext.."

"Well yes, but did you have a guide..."

"Yes."

"Who?

"The pig."

Thorin buried his face in his hands.

"This is sweetheart." She had said gently. "She guides me around. "

Thorin had opened his mouth and closed it again.

"Here let me show you." Baya began to walk, as soon as she did Sweetheart was beside her, herding her in the right direction. To the end of the room and back again, perfectly avoiding the ottoman and chairs.

"Wow." Breathed Thorin.

Baya nodded happily.

"I've said it once, and I'll say it again you are quite amazing Baya."

"Oh it's sweetheart who deserves the praise not me. "

"You trained her."

"No, it was Farmer Maggot, he trained her to guide me around. It really was quite amazing." She sniffed the air. "Oh no! The bread is burning!" With that she had rushed off with Sweetheart at her side.
