One Ring. Accidental Voice

Sam? Samwise Gamgee?

... What an awful mistake I've made. Things all went black, and a sharp pain filled me, deep in my back and heart and encompassed me whole. This place, it isn't the place I left. This is not the tunnel, not even the mountain pass.

This strange book, and these strange wings... what has happened to me? More aches, pains unfamiliar, are stuck in me, now. They run not as deep, but are strong enough for remembering. My task... no guide, no companion, my Sam... not even the voice in my head to give me any guide. The weight of the eye is gone, but now what am I to do?

Sam, oh Sam, I'm so sorry... I'm so sorry...

Sam...does he have a last name?

[Normally, she doesn't ask, but she's heard that name a couple of times before.]

I can keep an eye out for him, all the same. If he does arrive, I'll be sure to let you know.

[ He is... very wary, but he has this feeling saying Sam's name won't put him in jeopardy, so long as they don't know of Frodo himself. ]

Gamgee.

And yours? My name is Rydia. I'm one of the volunteers at the Welcome Center.

... [ He hesitates a long while, considering it. Should he give his name? If he gives his name, he risks recognition and capture. If he doesn't and Sam or the others arrive, they may not find out he is here when they hunt for information.

If they are telling the truth, there is no Sauron to bring the ring to. But, it still has its power and its seductive calling.

So what does he do? It all seems hopeless, and if he cannot even be Frodo here, if he is to 'rest' here, then his hopelessness is justified for certain. ]

Frodo Baggins.

It's nice to meet you, Frodo. If you need help with anything, let me know. That's what I'm here for.

You have my thanks. [ Even if he cannot trust it, he'll appreciate the sentiment, for now. ]
