The Downfall of the Lord of the Rings and What Happened After

by MagicalMysteryPhantom

The Lord of the Rings ends as Frodo leaves Middle Earth. Here is one theory of what happens on the ship.

Disclaimer: I do not own Lord of the Rings.

THE DOWNFALL

OF THE

LORD OF THE RINGS

AND WHAT

HAPPENED AFTER

Then Frodo kissed Merry and Pippin, and last of all Sam, and went aboard; and the sails were drawn up, and the wind blew, and slowly the ship slipped away down the long grey firth; and the light of the glass of Galadriel that Frodo bore glimmered and was lost. And the ship went out into the High Sea and passed on into the West.

THE NEXT DAY

Gandalf strokes his beard thoughtfully (which he does when he feels almost any emotion). "So. . . ." he says. "Who brought the food?"

"I think we're lost," Elrond says, looking at a map.

"THAR SHE BLOWS!" Bilbo yells, "THE WHITE WHALE!"

"I do believe a storm is coming." Galadriel declares, looking at the sky.

Gandalf looks at Frodo, still stroking his beard. "Frodo," he says, "Do you know how to fish?"

"No, Gandalf," he replies, "but shouldn't we worry about water first?"

"SOMEONE GIVE ME A HARPOON!" yells Bilbo.

"Why Frodo," Gandalf continues, "We are on the sea. Water is surrounding us." "Gandalf, it's full of salt! I am not drinking that!"

"Maybe we should not have left," says a random Elf to another. "I much prefer my old life to this chaos."

Screamed insults and the sound of Frodo being pushed overboard.
