Oh, how sad! Poor Pippin, to have to go on without Merry! I do hope that his other friends will rally around him--Aragorn, Faramir, Legolas and Gimli.

I like the way you had Merry having a premonition--I think he is every bit as likely to have them as Pippin is!

Poor Pip!

Author Reply: Thanks, DF! I do feel that Merry would be just as prone to foresight, since he's just as much Took as Pippin is.

Pippin is lucky to be surrounded by friends at a time like this.

Seems that Merry had a bit of fore-warning this time and managed to get his thoughts in order before he went on. I do feel very sad for Pippin here. Very well written.

Author Reply: Thank you, GW! I have always thought that Merry would have just as much of the foresight as Pip, since they are both half-Took. And I believe that Merry would want to make sure Pip was alright before he passed on.

Thanks for reading!

OMG that's so sad!! Isn't it so hard to write when one of them die? I've been writing a story for about a couple of months called "Death is for Nightmares" where Merry is killed in a nightmare.....by Pippin. It's so hard to write when one of them die or gets killed. Like I wrote a story called "Losing You" it's about Merry losing Pippin when they are much older but I can't bring myself to finish the fricken story!

Author Reply: Thank you for reading, pippinsgirl! Yes, it is hard to write, but I seem to get in these moods where the angst just pours out of me, lol.

I wish you luck with your story, it sounds interesting.

The mourning must happen, unfortunately; and this is only to be expected.

Alas, poor Pippin.

Author Reply: Thanks for reading, Larner! Yes, whichever of these two would be left behind, it would be most difficult for them. I suppose it makes sense for Pippin to be the one, since he is the younger.

*sobs* Oh that is a really sad beginning. It is good written and I like it, but it is sad.
Death is at the moment a very present topic for me.
Just today I was at a funeral. And this year will very probably follow some more of those. *sigh*
Anyway, looking forward to the next Chapter, even if it makes me crying.

Author Reply: Thank you, Golden. I'm sorry it made you cry! I hope to end it in an uplifting manner, but unfortunately , death is a fact of life. I've had to deal with it myself.

Stay tuned :)

oooo! A good beginning! I'm anxious to see where this goes, PipMer :-)

Author Reply: Thank you, Pearl! I'm anxious to see where it goes, too :)
