Tolkien quote of the day:

"Indeed in nothing is the power of the Dark Lord more clearly shown than in the estrangement that divides all those who still oppose him. Yet so little faith and trust do we find now in the world beyond Lothlórien, unless maybe in Rivendell, that we dare not by our own trust endanger our land. We live now upon an island amid many perils, and our hands are more often upon the bowstring than upon the harp."

Haldir, Lothlorien, FotR

bullet To The End of His Days by GamgeeFest Last Updated: 11/13/2012
Sam goes on one last adventure. A series of tribbles detailing Sam's final days in the Shire and in Valinor. This was inspired by the essay I wrote awhile back called "Ring-bearers, Aging and Life in Aman" and found here under "GamgeeFest's Musings." In it, I debated the likelihood of Frodo living long enough to be reunited with Sam in the West and concluded that it was quite unlikely. This story is based on that conclusion.
