Samwise Gamgee's Page
Note: Fourth in a thirteen-part series. Elanor is one of Sam's many daughters.
I've read Merry and Pippins' pages, and so, I guess I know where to start. One day, a year or two ago, Merry Brandybuck came to Master Frodo's garden, where I was working. He told me about the conspiracy that he and Pippin Took had formed up. No one has explained 'the conspiracy' in great detail, but it was basically finding about Mr. Frodo's (and once Mr. Biblo's) Ring, and us joining him to the dark lands in the end. Anyway, he told me, and I wanted no part. Betray Mr. Frodo…never! I felt so terrible when Mr. Frodo found out about it…I didn't want to admit that I had any part in the matter all together!
The others may have said this, but I am very interested in elves! Which is the reason I loved Lothlórien! I'm very fond of the gift that Lady Galadriel gave me. If only those wretched Nagzul wouldn't have followed us, we would have been able to stay longer.
Gollum was always following us, too, that sneaky, un-trustable, slimy creature. I don't know why Mr. Frodo ever trusted him. He nearly destroyed us all in the end. Him and his 'Precious'. He was a nutter, and no mistake. Mr. Frodo is right; I never trusted him and I don't feel sorry for him.
I'm glad to be home with Rose. Mr. Frodo is mayor, and Merry and Pippin are back in their homes on the other side of the Shire. Who knows where Gandalf is…and Elanor is newly arrived.
