| If your asking our opinion, I for one say continue the story. It's getting really good. Author Reply: Thank you for your vote of confidence! | |

| It took such courage to burn that pass! End it? How can I make that decision. It certainly is carried on now with The Rescue. But it's in your heart whether something yet lies between the two stories! Author Reply: I need to find that quote once more, where JRRT says that deep at the core of every hobbit, courage is to be found. Or something to that effect! Yes, I find that Chapter 4 has a very satisfying, if unsettling conclusion. I would hate to add a bunch of chapters and have the equivalent of a very long anticlimax! Still, there's a lot of food for thought in how Hally and Rose set out to accomplish their mission, how they managed a family life in the middle of it all, and how it all came out for them in the end, after the Battle of Bywater and Scouring of the Shire. | |

| Oh Rosemary! She has so much courage and strength yet few see it. It will be a hard path to walk but if anyone can do it they can. Many people forget about how much those in the Shire must have sacrificed. They fought for their homes, families and country just as the Travelers did, though in different ways. Please...please keep going! There is so much more to tell. Author Reply: Too true -- it's a lonely road to walk, when almost everyone thinks you're a collaborator. And you're right! We do know that some hobbits fought back, or there would have been no Lockholes needed. Thanks! | |

| Oh I do so love Rosemary in this--so brave, so very brave. You will, of course continue! ;) Author Reply: LOL! I had thought of finishing this off with the fourth chapter and then posting the following in a "Part 2", or of posting it all as one long story (and it will be somewhat long...). Have a few days to consider. | |

| I vote for continue, but that's just me. I'm finding this look behind some of the other stories very interesting. It was sad, in a way, to know that she burned the pass, but there was no way she could take it and live with herself. She'll earn her place back instead of running home to hide. Very brave and admirable. Author Reply: It was either take the pass and use it, for her children's sake, or burn it to protect them from accidental discovery. More chapters are written, that follow this one -- now I'm just figuring out whether to add them on to this one, or post them as a separate story. Thanks for your vote! | |
