FOTR/Bill Ferney

From Create Your Own Story

When Gandalf offers to reward Bill for information, the mercenary smile. "I only care about one thing, Wizard - and that's money. IThere is only one way for me to get the most money I can out of you - and that is to give you the most valuable thing I can offer. And right now - with this rag-tag group you're calling a fellowship - the thing you need most is me. If you pay me what I'm worth, I'll help you get that halfling back. I alrready know wherre they will be keeping him - Isengard. Even better, I know how to get him out. Now, lets talk price."

Gandalf haggleed as best he could, but in the end both parties were equally disastisfied with the result. Considerting that a succesful compromise, Bill joined the team as the Fellowship's spy - who happened to be willing to do less savoy deeds when needed (and compensated).

Along with his new Fellowship, Gandalf sets out from Bree at breakneck speed - tracking the Dark Riders, who are also moving fast. By the time the Ringwraith's have reached Isengard, Gandalf and company had almost caught up.
