Let Sleeping Dogs Lie
by Lindelea
While in Minas Tirith after the end of the War of the Ring, surely the hobbits were showered with presents from a grateful populace, or at least the people tried to shower them with presents. This is the story of one awkward but lovable gift, and a unique solution to the problem. Final chapter added: Epilogue. Also added to the "Prologue and Explanation": a remembrance of Panda, who has joined Zoe on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge.
