Good story. I stunbled across some of your stories the other day and have been reading somw of your works. The thing I want to say before anything else is that I am a born again Christian to!! I also like to write,but, unfourtunately SOA has yet to accept any of my works( it is not because of explicit material or anything, it is just that grammar is not one of my strong points). I hope you continue writing this story! Until then,
Elf messenger

Good for them! As an aspiring history major, it particularly irks me when people spite the past, or simply can't be bothered to honor or even remember it. It seems very unworthy to me. So, go for it, you two!

Interesting story. With the encouragement of Shirebound, I seek to broaden my elven outlook and become acquainted with Hobbits. I admit that I still view them with a bit of suspicion! I like the interplay of the two personalities of the the brother and sister and hope you will develop it further. What will they encounter in Gondor? I wonder.

This is a great beginning to your story. One of the very appealing aspects of the Lord of the Rings, to me anyway, is Tolkien's conceit that it was real history. You've taken that longing that I think we all feel, to go to Middle Earth and see where it all happened, and turned it into a story. Not 'modern people fall into middle earth', but hobbits that have almost forgotten their past. What a unique viewpoint. It's strange to think of Merry as a hero of ancient legends - we know him too well! Merry and Pippin's tombs are next to Aragorn's, and Frodo and Sam's orc-rags were preserved as relics of the quest - yet those are dry and dusty reminders. I wonder what they will find when they get to Gondor that can make the history come alive for them. I'll be looking forward to reading the next chapters.
