I cannot see how anyone could find this story interesting, because you would have to insult our intelligence to have it not end one or two chapters after they reach Middle Earth. Why?

Well:

1. They would bring a ship, which would presumably have *guns* since they are going into hostile territory.
2. Those guns would take care of all the armies of Mordor and Harad combined. Plus, say goodbye to Barad-Dur - and this time the foundations will not be left intact.
3. Its almost certain that the Ring could only be destroyed at Mt. Doom because it had a magically boosted higher melting point, so the guns of the Jedi's ship should be able to *easily* vaporize it.
4. Maybe, however, because it is magically linked to Mt. Doom, it can only be destroyed there? If that's what you think, then no problem. We'll zip over in our handy-dandy starship, hover over Mordor (laughing with glee as we shoot down any primitive over-large birds (wringwraiths) that try to stop us) and drop the ring strait into the volcano.

As has been demonstrated, you (the author) would have to go to ridiculous lengths to make this story remotely interesting. If the Jedi council has to 'teleport' them to Middle Earth, that too would break suspension of disbelief so badly it would be laughable, as if you made Gimli able to fly.

This story is so good! I find it odd that *any* elves survived the encounter, but this is so good I feel giddy. Please update, and know that I am checking this every week.
