bullet What Memories Remain by lbilover Last Updated: 9/23/2008
Bilbo knows that some memories will never be lost.

bullet With Hope and Without Hope by docmon Last Updated: 9/23/2008
FIRST PLACE in 2008 MEFA Awards! One decision made differently--the Three Hunters run through that second night of their chase after the Orcs rather than rest--and everything changes. Well, not everything. They're merely captured like Merry and Pippin. One decision changed doesn't change one's destiny, however. Reaching the fate destiny has in store for them is a bit peskier, though. There's action, adventure, suspense, a bit of angst, and hopefully an enjoyable story for all. Feedback welcome.

bullet I Will Take It by Agape4Gondor Last Updated: 9/20/2008
Betrayed, an Elf decides to take it himself. The Muse called and asked for this and after I wrote it, I realized that there had been a challenge at HASA for 'non-Frodo taking the Ring' tales. I guess this fits. Chapter two came out of nowhere...

bullet Leaves of the Wood by Lissas Elves Last Updated: 9/5/2008
