DRABBLE: Under the Deepening Shadows

Under the Deepening Shadows
by Serai
Alone in the dusk, Frodo leaned against an alder and lit his pipe. The lights from the Party Tree cast a gay tremulous glow, making flickering jewels of the dancing hobbits' shadows. Puffing thoughtfully, Frodo savored the taste of Old Toby, yet another flavor discovered anew after his rebirth into life. Reborn for a little while, to fulfill the last of his destiny - saving the Shire. Looking on Sam's joyous face, Pippin's flirting, Rosie's ringing laugh, Frodo knew he'd succeeded. He sighed. Now he could finally rest. A quiet footstep made him turn.
"Well done, cousin," Merry said, smiling.
