Look. I'm not... I'm not a warrior, at best I can swing my sword around and there have been times where I've been lucky enough to save my own hide, and the hides of others. But that is another thing entirely. I am a hobbit, we are not made for wars! You can argue all you like that I said the same thing concerning adventures, yet that is not the same thing... there is strength in numbers. With them I feel safe.
[Hesitating then, feeling unsure.]
Where you wish to send me I am alone, and what can I possibly hope to achieve by myself? Training? For what.
You have others you can send, ones better suited for- for war, of all things. Just keep me out of it, I don't want any battles or that nonsense. I just want to make it back in one piece, if that's at all possible. Thank you.
