| A terrible loss, but better than the possible loss of their riders, I suppose. And we know that Pippin and Merry won't be returning anywhere near soon! Weather here warming but windy, and little dogs are on alert status--constantly! Heh! Author Reply: Wind unsettles our animals as well, and they've had a lot to contend with the past few days. Great news! Middlest and her partner took top honours at last weekend's tournament. It's never happened before, and it may never happen again (in her own words), but it certainly was a thrill when it did happen... We are so proud of all their hard work. *sigh* Poor Paladin and his family! | |

| Glad to see you back. I've really missed reading this story. What a gruesome discovery. The poor ponies. I'm sure they just didn't fall off, they were helped. Author Reply: In a manner of speaking, you're right. I remember reading JRRT saying that the Black Rider's chief weapon was fear, and fear certainly drove the ponies over the edge. I imagine that the riders would have gone right over the cliff with them, if the Black Rider had not felt the need to question them about Frodo's whereabouts. Horrid thought. Thanks! | |

| Oh dear, Paladin's been set a puzzle and no mistake. Of course they don't have all the pieces nor understand just what has invaded the Shire. And of course they have no way to realize that protectors are involved as well. I'm a little lost in the timeline: where are Pippin, Frodo and Sam now? Have they reached Woodhall yet, or are they further than that? Author Reply: Pippin, Frodo, Sam and Merry left Crickhollow at dawn on the 26th (this day) and entered the Old Forest. At some point on this day, they encountered Old Man Willow and were rescued by Tom Bombadil. Freddie is left behind at Crickhollow to maintain the pretense that Frodo is living there. Crickhollow will be attacked by Black Riders on the 30th (just a few days away). Having to work from online timelines as I can't seem to find ANY of our copies of LOTR at the moment. Thanks! | |

| Glad to see you're still working on this one. I'm really interested to see how events unfold. I'm really wondering what the reactions will be when they realize Pippin is gone and things are only going to get worse. Author Reply: I know! Something prompted the Tooks to close Tookland off and keep Men out, we know from the story. I just have to figure out how the events might have transpired... Thanks for the good word. Are you working on new stories, too? Looking forward to seeing them. | |
