She felt confident in the use of her mobile phone now, and enjoyed the photos that Hild was prone to sending. They were of pretty elements of nature, always. A bird on a branch, a leaf that shone in the sun, or a family of ducks feeding on the shore. When her mobile phone made its odd noise, she pulled it out of her pocket, wondering if she had sent another. Instead she saw that Hild had invited her to join her in a "latte", which was one of the strange coffee drinks.

Her tasks at the stable were complete and her chambers were neat, so she went to the park to meet her friend. When she saw Hild, she saw both the cups and a paper bag, which was surely containing baked goods.

"Well-met, dear friend," she said warmly in their shared tongue. With their continuing acquaintance, she and Hild understood each other very well, though Eowyn still thought each might find the other's accents and word choices strange from time to time, perhaps always.
