Summary : Galadriel prepares a gift for Sam. (Written for a quotation prompt by Mitta Xinindlu in a SWG challenge.)

‘I have made my choice and will depart. But I will not maintain only that which bears me fruit,’ said Galadriel.

She knelt down in her orchard, so soon to be abandoned, at the foot of the oldest tree, and with a small shovel she scooped a little earth into the box of grey wood she had prepared, earth soft and fine as dust, and into the middle she gently pressed a tiny mallorn nut.

‘It will be a gift, in hope. For the small gardener, when he returns to rebuild. For, after all, we each have our own Lorien.’

That’s wonderful gift and gap filler and I would imagine Galadriel to leave this for Sam and for future of the shire :)

It was such a thoughtful gift — exactly right for Sam.

we each have our own Lorien is a lovely sentiment, and very true!
