An intriguing beginning and I look forward to more! I hope indeed Aragorn can provide some relief for our beloved hobbit, indeed one of the world's saviors. It hurts to see him like this.
Namarie, God bless, Antane or Aunty Anne :)

Hello Joseph's, Margaret's, Stephen's, Peter's, Berndette's, John Paul's, Dominic's, Joan's, and Elizabeth's Aunty (I've been dying to do that ever since you replied to my review for your story 'Memorial Day'),
I am chuffed to bits (thrilled and delighted) that you reviewed my first chapter.
The story is complete and I will post 2 chapters this evening so feel free to give them a wee read if you like.
Sam may indeed get some relief - but his problems have barely started yet...
See you soon!
(Just) Kara's Aunty :)

A little "artistic license" is fine--it just makes the story very slightly AU, as all fics are to one degree or another. Besides, I'm sure so canny a Ranger as Strider could read lips. I'm sure his mind supplied the words...
I like this--I could see by the events that this is a preliminary to his canonical visit to Annuminas. I look forward very much to seeing more of this.
Welcome to SoA! It's always lovely to see a new hobbit-writer in our ranks!

Hello!!
Thank you SO much for the review and the welcome. Stories of Arda is great - I only posted this last night and already the warmth of the reviewers has made me feel like a family member. You can't buy a feeling like this!!
I've actually finished this story (13 chapters) and was going to post a chapter every two days, but I'm so thrilled with the responses so far that I may not be able to contain myself and will probably put 2 up this evening (Got some tweaking to do on them though) as a sort of thank you.
Hope you enjoy the next chapters as much!
