fardell24A day after the Council of Elrond, a strange house appears next to the Last Homely House. Investigating Elves find Jane and Trent Lane and Daria Morgendorffer inside, for the house is Casa Lane.
Now Jane and Daria have to learn Westron and join the Fellowship after Elrond and Gandalf reveal that the Lane house was not the only part of Lawndale to end up in Middle-Earth. Indeed it seems that all of Lawndale is scattered about Middle-Earth, including in Mordor!
Of course, Daria is not the only source of extra-Arda material that intrudes upon the War of the Ring! There may be others (that may, or may not, give Sauron an advantage...)
Theoden, Aragorn and Jane approached the parleying leader of the Isengard forces. He then spoke, in a strangely familiar accent. "Are you the King of this horse-loving nation?"
"I am," Theoden said.
"Speak your terms," Aragorn said.
"One, the Great Saruman the Wise, Viceroy of Isengard asks that the Rohirrim disarm themselves and surrender, and Second that Theoden cede the entirety of the region known as the Westfold to his rule." The commander stepped forwards, bringing his freckled face into the light. "Do not mistake his intention!"
Jane realised where she knew that voice and accent from. "Upchuck?"
"That's General Upchuck to you!" Upchuck said, in English.
"So you ended up in Isengard, huh? Did the Wizard offer you an offer you couldn't refuse? A harem of Dunlendish women?" Jane asked, also in English.
"Feisty!" Upchuck said.
"He did, didn't he?"
"So what Ms. Lane? It is you under that Rohirric armor, isn't it?" Upchuck asked.
Jane drew her sword.
"Feisty!" Upchuck said, switching back to Westron.
"It's another Lawndalian," Jane said to Aragorn.
"What did you say?" the King asked.
"I asked if Saruman offered Upchuck, or rather, Charles Rutthiemer III, a harem. It looks like he did."
"Not the first time such has happened," Aragorn said.
"What is your answer?" Commander Rutthiemer asked Theoden.
"We refuse your terms. This pathetic excuse for a parley is at an end," Theoden said.
Note: Daria and Jane join the Fellowship. When the Fellowship breaks, Daria joins Frodo and Sam on their journey to Mordor; Jane joins Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas in their chase after the Orcs who took Merry and Pippin.
They learn Westron whilst in Rivendell waiting to set out.
Jane uses the time in Lothlorien to paint the scenery that she had seen on the way from Rivendell.
