| Poor Hildifons! To be jilted so, and worse, everyone else saw it coming except him. He shouldn't have bereaved himself over such an unworthy lass, but it's easier said than done. It was a rather hasty decision to leave, one it seems he regrets now. I can't wait to see what happens next! Author Reply: It was the "everyone else saw it coming except him" part, I think, that hurt him most. Gardenia was very unworthy of him, but he wouldn't be the first lad to have that happen to him. He *was* impulsive. But then he was also a Took! | |

| Very interesting! No wonder the elves were so prepared for Bilbo's retirement! But Hildifons had decided to quit the Shire, and didn't want anyone told about him? Bilbo might find that journal more difficult to read than he is expecting. Author Reply: Yes, I think you are quite right about it being difficult for Bilbo to read. | |

| Poor Hildifons! It's hard to be jilted like that. On the other hand, a Sackville? It wouldn't have worked out! And now I know why Frodo, Merry and Pippin were always so fond of playing pranks. It lies in the family, on the Took side, of course ;-) I wonder what Hildifons will find in Bree! A “rag-tag conjurer”? Sooner or later they will meet again. Author Reply: Ah, no. But breaking up is hard to do. I think pranks must have run among several hobbit families--apparently JRRT was fond of a good practical joke himself from time to time! I am quite sure they will meet again. | |

| Sackvilles were involved? Ah, the poor lad--he did not choose well at all, did he? And love Belladonna's reaction to the news--glad not to have to pretend to be nice to Gardenia any more! Now, how on earth did our Hildifons become "Trotter"? Author Reply: Yes, and though it does not enter into this story, Gardenia was aunt to Camelia. LOL! Hildifons younger siblings were certainly indignant on his behalf! You will find out eventually. *grin* | |

| Poor broken-hearted one! And so his Adventure begins. Author Reply: Yes, he was quite devestated to be jilted like that! But it sent him off into Adventure, as you say! | |

| How wonderful that Trotter is going to have his own fanfiction story; and what a great way to start it! Of course he had to be a Took. Author Reply: Of course he did! I have to say, the Trotter of JRRT's early drafts was my inspiration, but his origins are entirely mine, and you will notice he lives in quite a different timeline. But I could not get away from the idea of Trotter, the hobbit Ranger. | |

| This should be interesting and I look forward to more! Namarie, God bless, Antane :) Author Reply: Well, I hope to keep the story moving! I have an eight-week deadline! | |

| Oh dear Bilbo, I just love him in this prologue! His reaction to finding such an important tone, marching down the halls to Elrond and yet still so much that curious hobbit with his thirst for knowlegde! I am so curious what happened to Hildifons! Author Reply: He is still very curious about things--you and Bilbo will find out together all about his uncle! | |

| Ah--at last the story of Hildifons! Hooray! Author Reply: *grin* Yes. At last. This story has been brewing in my head since 2007. | |
