The Man in the Corner by lindahoyland

Author's Notes:

The characters are the property of the Tolkien Estate.

He always sits in the same corner smoking his pipe. An unsociable fellow, even for one of them Rangers. Where do they come from? I wish they’d choose some other inn save the Pony, especially that one, Strider or Longshanks as I think of him.

The way he just sits there watching. I’m sure it puts off the other customers. Why does he have to look so gloomy? Anyone would think there was something wrong with my ale!

There is something about him that almost frightens me. Those keen grey eyes ! He misses nothing. This Strider is a man apart.
