A persistent wind sweeps over the low rolling hills, rustling the leaves in the surrounding trees. Crickets hiding amongst the reeds filling the riverside chirp endlessly as the water flows steadily by. A night hawk occasionally calls out. Beautifully illuminated clouds sweep over a star-filled sky.

The bobber is in the water in Nan Laeglin, in the region of Enedwaith, in the land of Eriador.
