If you're a hobbit looking for a place to rest at the start of a long journey, why don't you stride right into the Prancing Pony for a drink and maybe a nice warm bed. Who knows, maybe you'll even run into a Ranger who will turn out to be a pivotal member of a future fellowship of some sort, helping you complete an epic quest. If not, we've still got plenty of ale and food, and when it really comes down to it, what else do you need?
