Lotharn smiled as she began telling about the Hobbits. But he knew Timberlane wanted to know more about what happened then where they had been. "The mission of the Fellowship, Frodo, Samwise, Merry, Pippen, Arragon the Ranger, Gimily the Dwarf, Legoles the Elf, and Gandalf the Wizard was to take a powerful ring of magic to Mount Doom to be destroyed. It had belonged to Sauron, a powerful user of magic that gave him incredible powers. It was lost to him in the first War, and he was trying to get it back. But the fellowship fell on bad times and Frodo and Samwise left the group to go alone to Mordor and Mount Doom. Mordor was a place blasted by magic, and the volcano that was Mount Doom. It was an evil place that could drain the very life from you. But Frodo and Samwise braved the terrible place, that was filled with armies of Orcs, Mercenaries, and other horrible creatures. The traversed that cursed land, barely hanging on to life and destroyed the ring. They showed great courage, determination, and where man and elf would have failed, they prevailed."<br/><br/>He looked over at Merry and Pippen. "Their grandfathers also suffered great hardships, were captured by Orcs and escaped. Pippen joined the Rohan, The great horsemen of the plains and road into battle with them against the armies of Sauron that were attacking Gondor. He did not want to be left behind so Eowyn, the daughter of the King of Rohan, who secretly went with the warriors took him with her. When they charged the lines of the enemy, he was in the front ranks unafraid and fought. When one of the Nazgul, who once had been a human king, and changed by one of the rings Sauron had given the human kings, tried to kill Eowyn, he did not hesitate but attacked and injured it, distracting it so she could kill it.<br/><br/>Merry, he became a soldier of Gondor and fought for the grand city of the humans. He fought the enemy with all the courage anyone else double his size had. Then with the final battle at the Gates of Mordor, the two of them were the first to charge the hords of orcs, and other foul creatures that came out to destroy the army of Man, elf and dwarf. They did not hesitate as the others did, but followed the King of Gondor into battle and fought with distinction until the ring was destroyed and Mordor erupted and destroyed the majority of the enemy hoards. So yes those two little Hobbits showed more courage, and more bravery then I have seen in men, elves or dwarfs. I know the places and people we<br/><br/>Thorgan brushed her hair feeling the softness of it and lifted to take in the scent of it. "The others have things well in hand. The ones you called Hobbits seem to have gotten our wizard enthralled." he chuckled. "Something new for him to study and find out everything he can. They can get along without me being there I think." he continued brushing her hair till it was all untangled and lay like a cloak.
