However, you might consider sending everyone out to the hillsides to swap stories until the whole thing blows over. Good luck, and stay warm. I'll be in Bree next Yuletide if there's any Bree left to be in. Dear Gandalf, We were about to attempt the recolonization of Cardolan, but now it appears evil wights have infested the ancient downs and there's no one able to stand up to them. Dear Araval, Sorry to hear about the new neighbors.
Wights can be a pesky and troublesome lot.
Unfortunately, I'm currently getting a long overdue manicure in Lothlorien and won't be available for the next hundred years or so. However, I've sent along a chap who won't mind keeping the Wights for neighbors and will do his best to see to it that the evil doesn't spread. Dear Gandalf, I'm not sure we can hold out against Angmar much longer. I've heard Gondor has been having trouble but they don't seem to be doing too badly. We're still looking for a fair maiden.
