But when Aragorn arose all that beheld him gazed in silence, for it seemed to them that he was revealed to them now for the first time. Tall as the sea-kings of old, he stood above all that were near; ancient of days he seemed and yet in the flower of manhood; and wisdom sat upon his brow, and strength and healing were in his hands, and a light was about him. And then Faramir cried: ‘Behold the King!’

Anyone who is a Frodo fan has probably seen tons of stories where he meets Sam. This is one in which he meets Bilbo. My version of Frodo's childhood is a little different from the usual ones you see in fanfic, but perhaps not too different. In any case, this is a short story, the first one I wrote in this fandom as a matter of fact, and I hope you like it.
