An Honest Fool

by Mariposa

Canon. Pippin sat with his knees drawn up and the ball between them.... He gave a gasp and struggled; but he remained bent, clasping the ball with both hands. Closer and closer he bent, and then became rigid; his lips moved soundlessly for a while. Then with a strangled cry he fell back and lay still. --J.R.R. Tolkien, The Two Towers, Book Three: "The Palantir"
