Survival, Part 1
by Lindelea
The Travellers learned much about survival in their travels in the Outlands, which came in handy upon their return to the Shire – and afterwards. (Part 1 is set during Pippin's early years as Thain, Part 2 takes place during Sam's early years as Mayor, and Part 3 features the Thain's son and Mayor's daughter).
