An Unexpected Journey

Layla Baggins was not a Hobbit, but the Shire was her home. Of sorts. Her birth parents had fled from something and she was found at the edge of Hobbiton alongside her late mother. She was taken in and raised as a Hobbit. Though she wouldn't admit it, she longed for more. She wanted to know who her family was and what else was out there. What will happen when she gets the chance to find out?
