He'd grown up on Bilbo's tales of adventure. Of dragons and dwarves and gold and glory. He thought that was what he wanted too. The immortalization that accompanies a hero. He got his wish, but at what cost? Real-life was not like the fantasies of his youth. Through his despair he accepted that a simple happily ever after doesn't exist, and the hero doesn't return unscathed. Being called the Mad Baggins of Bag End was not a title of praise, but a striking reminder of his inability to ever return to the bright, blue-eyed hobbit he once was; respected and accepted by his peers. He wonders-not for the first time-if Bilbo knew this too, and if the stories he filled Frodo's young head with were purposefully absent of all that is dark and dismal. Death and destruction replaced by hope and victory. Meant to inspire, yet shield him from the true tragedy that accompanies a hero. If he can even call himself one.

Estateillio
"I have many names, oh great dragon. I am Lithir, the many faced, though one face I have only, and I am Esta, the first, yet many came before me, I am the Fierce, the Swift, the Free, I am a wanderer, veiled, yet a princess at court, and I am mortal and immortal both." "And dwarf-friend, as well, for I smell their scent upon you. Tell me, many-named, have you come to slay me?", Smaug growled denunciatorily [...]. She gripped the handle of her dagger while spinning around with wide eyes, as if she was afraid and found herself face to face with Smaug and with a swift movement she aimed for the eyes to incapacitate him, for the blade was not long enough to go deep. And Smaug reared and bled and in his anger spit fire at his attacker and Estateillio quickly jumped aside and drew her bow. The arrow would have hit his other eye had he not moved so much, but when she extended her hand, his head was jerked around as the dagger [...] was yanked from injured flesh and returned to its master's hand. [《◇》] How do you live, when you have lost so many? How do you live, when the scars never cease to hurt? Which path do you take, when you seek for vengeance? What sacrifices are you willing to make?

Of Dwarves and Men {Boromir/LOTR}
"Now I lay me down to sleep I pray the lords my soul to keep See me safely through the night And wake me with the morning light" ...and though that morning light is but a ghost on the Eastern horizon, it is one onto which we cling. In this dark age of begotten Ringwraiths, rogue orcs, and Sauron's rise, it is a hope that we will live to see another day. But as direction goes, it is not so much a morning light, nor an Eastern one, but that of infinitesimal flames roving across the lands yet funneling in the Northeast. These are the flames of Phoenicians, cause of Sauron's original downfall and back for our final battle. This is a story of a return to light within the very heart of Gondor's son. The tragic death to counter Durin's, only withheld by a tear of heavenly descent. And though his ways are ones of great fault, he is yet to be the most deserving of all humanity...a true light in the darkness. Let us then begin the tale of dwarves and men.
