*sniff* How sad for these fathers' to see their sons so transformed by their newly acquired past. Very touching! Thank you!

Very well done, but quite sad as well. The differences in dialect are very interesting, and help lend character to each voice.

Does it go: Paladin, the Gaffer, Saradoc?

If so, then the description of Samwise as a wolf is both fitting and frightening.



Author Reply: You're correct--it's Pippin, Sam and Merry. However, I deliberately did it so it could go different ways.
I'd imagine Sam would be somewhat frightening to the Gaffer. He left a gentle, shy hobbit and came back virtually a warrior.

Ah, how poignant, how sad!

Pippin... Merry... Samwise?

How much you say in how few words!

Author Reply: Well, the first was definitely Pippin, but the last two could have gone either way. Interesting that you see Merry as the wolf instead of Sam.
