Tolkien quote of the day:

If you have ever seen a dragon in a pinch, you will realize that this was only poetical exaggeration applied to any hobbit, even to Old Took's great-granduncle Bullroarer, who was so huge (for a hobbit) that he could ride a horse. He charged the ranks of the goblins of Mount Gram in the Battle of the Green Fields, and knocked their king Gol-firnbul's head clean off with a wooden club. It sailed a hundred yards through the air and went down a rabbit hole, and in this way the battle was won and the game of Golf invented at the same moment.

bullet Last Words by lbilover Last Updated: 7/10/2008
A ficlet set in Minas Tirith in 1442, during the year that Sam, Rosie and Elanor spent at the court of the King. I was re-reading The Departure of Boromir, and was bit by a plot bunny inspired by this passage: ’He fled, certainly,’ said Aragorn, ‘but not, I think, from Orcs.’ What he thought was the cause of Frodo’s sudden resolve and flight Aragorn did not say. The last words of Boromir he long kept secret.
