## Resource

Roran’s back! Darien and Lucy are excited to spend time with Roran again in Eldest chapter 44, "Narda” and chapter 45, “The Hammer Falls.” Talking points include an excellent use of the physical layout of the book, Roran knowing everyone’s name, questioning who described Roran for the wanted posters, and what Roran is willing to do to protect the villagers. Sparks of Inspiration Lucy has joined a fun new D&D campaign! Darien loves her new tattoo which is a quote from The Adventure Zone.
