I like this one very much. I often felt that those who fought at the battle before the Black Gate could have had no real hope of survival - but they were prepared to sacrifice their lives in the faint hope that they could distract Sauron long enough for Frodo to succeed. Once they thought Frodo had been captured ... Very nicely done, Kate. Jay

Poor Legolas, I must admit that I get a very strong desire to hug him sometimes. It was the part in the film where they charge 'for Frodo' that really brought the futility of that moment home to me. I've spent today collecting all my drabbles and putting them in one place, I have a lot more than I thought. It's a shame SoA doesn't take slash.
