| Interesting to think that Frodo started life with a weak heart, when in the end it is the strength of his heart that saves all of Middle Earth. I'm slowly making my way through this, and I just love Sam's voice here. His simple way of seeing things and expressing them make this a delightful yet quite insightful tale. Author Reply: So glad you are making your way through it. Was my first story posted here--or anywhere, for that fact. Many infants have been born with heart murmurs and then have grown out of them as they matured. I felt this could make a plausible reason why Frodo might indeed end up being seen as the greatest rascal in Brandy Hall, and why in the end Bilbo would be moved to adopt Frodo at the fairly advanced age of 21 or 22. But you are right--the strength of his heart during the quest was never questioned. And am so glad you appreciate Sam's voice in the story. | |
