'Welcome, Player! Have you come to Yondershire for Angelica's house-warming party? How lovely! I have had my hands full keeping Dinodas and Marigold out of trouble, but mother entrusted me with the task and I will not let her down.'
You ask Camellia where her brother and sister have gone, and a look of sudden panic crosses her face.
'Wha-? They were here a minute ago! I took my eyes off them for just a moment, and they vanished? That is so typical, Player. Can you track them down for me? Marigold had been talking about seeing the Elf ruins to the west of here, but where Dinodas might have gone is a mystery to me. Maybe Marigold will know? She had better!'1/1
'Well hello there, Player! Your adventures have brought you to Yondershire? My own taste for adventure has also led my feet here, and it is a good thing, too: these half-orcs would only grow in strength until they might threaten the safety of the Yonder-hobbits, and we can't have that. Did you know my sister Angelica has become one of them? A Yonder-hobbit, I mean; not a half-orc.
'It's true! She's a resident of Nobottle now. We're all here to welcome her to her new home.'
You ask Marigold if she knows where Dinodas might have gone, and she smiles brightly.
'Dinodas gave Camellia the slip, eh? Good for him! Maybe we'll make an adventurer of him after all, Player! Or perhaps not. I'm pretty sure he just wanted to go to Gamwich to show off the house-warming gift he commissioned for Angelica to some friends of his. You'll probably find him there.'1/1

'Let's go back to Camellia in Tighfield. She and cousin Bingo are going to be so impressed with my gift! \qYou've come through again, Dinodas!\q they'll say! You see if they don't, Player, you see if they don't!'1/1

'Prepare to be amazed, everyone!
'On my way here I encountered an Elf on his way to the Grey Havens. He was travelling westward and my road lay to the north, but we walked together for a little while and spoke of many things. He was a painter, it seems, and though he possessed humility more befitting a hobbit than an Elf, I could tell he must have no small skill in the art. It became clear to me as well that he was dawdling; he seemed in no real hurry to reach the Havens at the end of his road.
'\qPerhaps you wouldn't mind painting something for me?\q I asked him, and he said it had been many years since he had last painted a subject of hobbit-style. \qHow many years?\q I asked, and he would not say. You know how Elves can be. At any rate, I thought this would be just the thing to give to Angelica: a painting of her new house!
