I like the idea of this story and it's written pretty well; though there were a few points where it didn’t flow as well as other parts. I think what I appreciated most was the way Frodo came to the decision to go with the elves and join Bilbo on his last journey. To me it seemed very heartfelt and 'right'. I also liked these couple of lines. "Sam had not failed. The simple gardener had done exactly what he had set out to do; take care of Mr. Frodo." Insightful and poetic. Very cool. But, anyway, really a good story.

A very poetic piece showing the noble soul of my very favorite hobbit. The turmoil he feels over his difficult decision coupled with his illness and pain makes me weep. You've captured Frodo's essence masterfully. A touching story wonderfully written. Excellent.
