Not since they had left Rivendell had Aragorn last seen such good fare and in such abundance; fresh, tasty food of every imaginable kind.

Frodo and Sam gazed wide at the banquet spread before them in their honour. Aragorn fretted that they would eat too much too fast and started warning them to eat slowly.

Meanwhile, his foster brothers piled his plate high with hearty fare. After weeks of dining on beef jerky and withered apples it was irresistible. Aragorn smiled and began to eat greedily, savouring each satisfying mouthful. Today he would indulge his appetite and act the glutton!
