Another Moment of your Time  by Larner 7 Review(s)

If Frodo had really healed and stayed in Middle-earth, I wonder how many years he'd have argued with Sam and Rosie about calling him 'Master'. He's not the only stubborn Hobbit, after all.

That dream was rather prophetic, wasn't it? We know it came true, after all. Interesting he did have it such a long time in advance. It might have influenced his final decision, too, who knows?

Author Reply: Too true, Kitty. Thanks!

Larner, somehow a spam link to a sex shop has become attached to this story, on the home page and on the chapter list page. You might need to have an admin remove it if you cant

Author Reply: Thanks for the heads up. People have tried to sell watches, shoes, and purses through my stories. And now this? Gads!

Oh, I'm so very very sorry. She was such a beautiful spirit. Words are so inadequate. Hugs to you all. Raising up prayers for comfort.

The details that you have woven into and around the narrative are wonderful, drawing me in and painting a clear picture. (Hooking her foot around the leg of the stool... I've done that sort of thing so many times without even thinking about it!) It was lovely to see Frodo at peace, even if it was the result of a prescient dream. Although I think that Sam would not be so comforted at the thought of his Master (and Brother) sailing away into the West...

And happily for Rosie, though Sam did sail in the end, it was after her death, so it was not the terrible rending that it might have been.

*hugs* Thank you for a lovely, soothing read after an impossibly busy stretch of work, four days in a row of working from noon until 3 or 4 a.m. I will be up well past midnight yet again tonight, but for a happier reason... picking up a loved one who is flying home for the holiday.

Author Reply: Am so glad this spoke so to you. I suspect Rosie had secret envious thoughts and concerns regarding Sam's relationship with Frodo, as well as fears he might follow Frodo away again but not return this time. To realize she would not endure that loss a second time would be a relief for her.

Pray for us--Bettina succumbed to a sudden illness this morning. An emergency room visit failed to save her. I am heartbroken.

Glad he had some peace and you are here to report it! :) Hope you are as well as can be in these increasingly crazy times.

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author Reply: Covid has made things more difficult, I must admit. I've enjoyed imagining what Frodo's dreams of peace might have been like. Thanks so, Antane.

Hobbits, after all, were creatures of the earth that housed and fed them, with no love for that which is fluid and not answerable to foot or plow.

I've never heard the nature of hobbits described better. :)

Dear Rosie so in love with Sam, so grateful to 'Master' Frodo, and doing her best to comprehend wider concepts than her life had ever prepared her for. This is such a peaceful and loving scene.

Author Reply: I'm so glad you appreciated the description, Shirebound. The idea that Frodo would find images of the Sea comforting would be hard for Rosie to understand, or so I would suspect. But she would appreciate anything that brings Sam's Master peace.

Thanks so!

I've been reading your stories for quite a while now and I always enjoy them. I really like the theme of peace in this one.

Thank you for posting.
