Wow! You'd have to wonder what would have happened then! That's an AU that would be wide open. | |

This outcome would have spared Bilbo and particularly Frodo a lot of sorrow and pain - at least if Bilbo would still have escaped from Gollum and the orcs. But over all, the outcome would have been horrible, I think. Either Gollum or one of the orcs would have found it - and I fear it would have found its way to Sauron ... *shudder* Author Reply: AU challenges are great - and they prompt so many more possibilities. What if, indeed ... | |

Ooh, dear--we're glad that Might-Have-Been didn't happen, aren't we? (Shivers!) Author Reply: Yes - who would have found the ring then? It had to be either Gollum again, or an orc ... | |

LOL! Oh, I like! But we would have been robbed of some wonderful story lines.... A very surprising ending! Well done! - Barbara Author Reply: Thank you! AU challenges are a wonderful opportunity to write some of those 'What if ...' moments. | |

*giggles* You had me going there for a moment. Did a double take, I did!!! Author Reply: It's an interesting idea, isn't it? The whole of LOTR would be different. And I wonder who found the Ring if Bilbo didn't? | |

Yikes! And so he ended up in Gollum's belly, and I hope he caused a great deal of indigestion! Author Reply: Perhaps - perhaps not. I like AUs - they're very thought provoking. Who knows what may have happened after this? | |

Beautiful! Well done! I cannot help but wonder how things would have continued. Would the orcs have found it? Or Gollum? Either way, would the ring have willed its way back to the hand of its master, eventually? My first reaction was relief. Like 'whew', no hardship, ring still unfound... Peace... But now? Brr! I shudder at the thought. You nicely draw the reader totally into the moment: the darkness, the silence... Very good! ~Esteliel Author Reply: Thank you - I like the chance to write AU, because who knows what may have happened after this? It throws the entire later history of M-E open. | |
