Such a sweet story! I love how Frodo helped from so far away to bring this little family to safety.

Author Reply: I enjoyed writing this story. So glad you enjoyed it, Kitty.

Nice! So, Frodo is able to use his star glass to communicate with his loved ones back in the Shire. I like that! =) And in his case, he was able to help Sam assist a family in desperate need.

Author Reply: Sorry to be so delayed responding. As I age it takes increasingly longer to get things done, or so it seems. I suspect Frodo wasn't granted much knowledge about life in the Shire, but that on occasion he was granted leave to intervene in a case of emergency.
I bet Frodo missed his old life at times.
Thanks so!

“The star’s moved,” Oslo called out, pointing to the place it now appeared to shine, high to the west of their current place.

“It’s atop the Hill now,” Frodo agreed. “Now it will lead us home.”


What a lovely story to read on this overcast morning. Thank you for celebrating Frodo (and the rest) in such a sweet way. Perhaps we'll peek in on little Starbright again sometime...? :)

Author Reply: Maybe we might see more of Starbright in the future. I never know any more. Heh!

Beautiful story! Frodoandsam for President! We need a pro-life one like this.

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author Reply: You already know that I am able to see both sides to that issue. But this was a family looking forward to the birth of this child, who needed shelter when all began to unravel too soon. Frodo Baggins would not be allowed, I'd think, to focus too much on the life he'd left behind; but at times his need to see into the Shire would be indulged, when the Powers recognized he had both the overwhelming urge and there was a need for his intervention to see things put right.

I doubt, by the way, that either Frodo or Sam would wish the burdens of our nation's presidency. Dealing with the needs of their own small land must have seemed more than enough responsibility, there where it mostly took just good sense and an excellent ability to bring it out in others to set things into the proper pattern.

Thanks so, Antane. It is always so good to hear from you!

Oh, such a lovely birthday present! I had tears in my eyes, reading it through. I love the New Year's customs, the first-footer, the bonfire, the (literal) hot pockets. The whispers in the night, wakening various people and setting them instantly to practical action (and no arguing against it on their part at all, it seems), and Sam instantly knowing and trusting his Master's voice. And the guiding starlight, bringing the travellers to a safe resting place, and guiding the rescuers there and back again - I'm sure the Lady was pleased to know her gift was so well-used.

“The Powers has their ways,” Sam said with a finality that forbade further discussion.
They certainly do!

I love the idea of Frodo in a far land, still fondly watching over those he loves.

Hugs, Lin

Author Reply: I'd considered expanding this some, with a dreamed conversation between Frodo and Sam, but felt it was better thus. Am so glad that this was so well received. God bless, and may we both do more writing this year! Can't wait until I'm allowed to go south once more. Am beginning to suffer from cabin fever!

Imagine—starlight in such a snowstorm!

Imagine it I can, thanks to you. What a magical story! This is a lovely way to begin our hopeful new year, and I wish you the very best, my friend.
