“Do you remember Rivendell, King Thorin?"

"It'll be winter soon. And the trees will still be shedding their leaves, and the Elves will still be playing their harps on the veranda. And they’ll be eating kale and alfalfa sprouts with the last of summer’s cumin vinaigrette. Do you remember the taste of kale?”
“No, Master Burglar. I can't recall the taste of kale, nor the smell of vinaigrette, nor the tra-lal-lallying of elves. THANK AULE!!”
******************************************
The audacious proposal stirred his heart. And the stirring became a song, and it mingled with the songs of Gil-galad and Celebrian, and with those of Feanor and Fingon. The song-weaving created a larger song, and then another, until suddenly it was as if a long forgotten memory woke and for one breathtaking moment the Music of the Ainur revealed itself in all glory. He opened his lips to sing and share this song. Then he realized that the others would not understand. Not even Mithrandir given his current state of mind. So he smiled and simply said "A diversion.”

Fili and Kili are running naked in circles around the elves, and we may have another battle on our hands if it keeps up much longer...
Thorin: Mahalu-me turg. I finally got to sleep! Haven't slept this whole dang trilogy! Tell them if they don't quit, I'm grounding them for the rest of their lives!
My writing and novels:
My Hobbit Fanfiction
My historical novel print and kindle version
My historical novels ebook version compatible with all ereaders
You can also find my novel at most major book retailers online (and for those outside the US who prefer a print book, you can find the print version at Book Depository). Search "Amazing Grace Amanda Longpre'" to find it.
Happy reading everyone!
