Very interesting; the different reasoning of Elrond choosing companions for the Ring Bearer. And I loved your description of Legolas' youthful outlook on life. That it had not yet been jaded.

And that darn Merry! Doesn't he do anything other than read maps and drink coffee? The little slacker! :-P Actually, this is what helps him and Pippin get their bearings as they approach Fangorn Forest. Good old Merry!

Author Reply: Glad you liked it! I enjoyed exploring possibly reasons for Elrond choosing each member of the Fellowship. (And that brief mention in Fangorn Forest (from FOTR), that Merry had not wasted his time in Rivendell, is what really brought him to life for me.)
