Poppie shivered and huddled close to her close to her grandma's leg. The other four children were sitting closer to each other than they had for a long time. "What was that big eye she dweamed about Gwamma?" asked Poppie, her little voice quivering with fear. Talitha scooped up the small hobbit and placed her on her lap. "Don't you remember that part of The Story?" Talitha asked her young grandchild as she planted a kiss on her little forehead.
"I know what it is!" Braidy yelled, "It's the Eye of Sauron!" At this, both boys jumped up and started running around the room. "Grr. I'm Sauron, give me the Ring Frodo Baggins!" Braidy exclaimed as he chased Ellod around the room. "I'll never give up The Precious!" Ellod shouted at his brother. "Then I will feed you to my NazgĂșl!"
"That is enough!!" Talitha roared, "The Dark Lord is not a game! He was very real, and very terrible!"
"We're sorry Gramma," Braidy quietly replied, a note of true repentance in his voice. They both came back to their seats in front of her rocker, looking very sheepish. "You are forgiven, but please don't play such games anymore. It is true history and is not to be taken lightly." Talitha realized that they were too young to know any better, but they had to learn sometime.
It had been late afternoon when the children came in, and now it was almost dark. "You had better run off home now before you're missed," Talitha said as she slid Poppie off her lap and back onto the floor. "Oh, let us stay the night with you please," whined Fraulette, "Mama said we could stay as long as you'd let is." Talitha laughed. "She was probably anxious to get rid of you little vermin. But you may stay for tonight." At this, all the children jumped up and down, clapping. Then they ran to their grandmother and gave her a great big hug. "I'll tell you some more of the story when you're ready to go to bed." They were all for going to bed that very instant, but Talitha reminded them of dinner and they quickly abandoned that idea. Talitha was the best cook in Hobbiton, and they weren't about to pass up an opportunity to enjoy her delicious food.
So they ate an extremely scrumptious dinner of corned bread, mashed potatoes, and other things that taunted their nostrils and taste buds. When they finished dinner, they spread quilts and pillows all over the floor in the living room. They settled down, and Talitha resumed her tale.
