Traveling wasn't a problem for Maleficent, even if she walked on foot. In the rain, through wind, there was no stopping her. The next night, as the dwarves set up camp, Maleficent seems to have stuck by Kili and Fili's side the whole time. So far, they were already friends, but there wasn't any parent-child affection yet. "Do us a favor, take this to the lads", Bofur instructed Bilbo. He takes the bowls of stew to the twins and fae as he goes to give the food to them. He sees they are both just standing and staring at the ponies."What’s the matter?" "They were supposed to be looking after the ponies", Maleficent responded to him.
