Description

Bassill Etonsong is the descendant of an aristocratic lineage of Hobbits living in Butterbottle. Songs and stories of the families past have always provided the Etonsong’s with special opportunity. Yet, the bravery and humor of the family stories have become exhausted with the passing of time and privilege in their telling wanes.

During youth Bassill did not find contentment with tradition, but spent time seeking new adventure in the Shire fields. Rumors of Bilbo Baggins time outside the Shire are inspirational, yet their truth depends upon the hobbit narrating. These stories are usually larger than any hobbit is capable, but they do fuel dreams of adventure while tilling earth. Bassill’s other passions are farming and cooking as they lead directly to eating and story telling.

Cautiously pursuing adventure beyond the Shire, Bassill became involved with events in Archete. The town was attacked by bandits and the roads have been affected with similar unrest. Bassill had part in freeing captain Juha Athur among the hobbits held. Companionship with Juha may be a light along the darkening road and serve as inspiration for stories that rival the legacy of even Bilbo himself.
