The Fire, Roaring


All the good beings of Middle-Earth were counting on him, to do the unthinkable, the unbiddable, the impossible. Frodo was physically exhausted, spiritually blind, but not morally bankrupt. The pain would not conquer; he would accomplish this last journey. Not a quest to find and return, but only a last task to perform.

At the end of all things, Frodo stood high above the Cracks of Doom, now determined to throw the golden trinket in. But he had not reckoned with the pain of longing for the power of the One Ring. It swept over him and he was lost.

wow I love what you wrote! It's just so true~ Frodo wanted to give the Ring up but he couldn't at the last minute but it was not he who had control at that particular moment but the Ring.
Very powerful drabble~
good job!
