My brother and I realized late last night we didn't have any drabbles ready to post... which led to a rather late writing up of this particular piece.
G.R.I.T. Commander
Sauron.
Rohan, Gondor, Isengard, the Shire—all of them invaded by Sauron.
Isengard. The mind of Saruman was overrun by the lidless eye; Isengard after.
Rohan. Attacked and probed by Saruman: Sauron in disguise.
Gondor. Always under attack from the Orcs of the single lidless eye—while Denethor battled Sauron.
The Shire. Invaded by spies and even Saruman in the early Fourth Age.
All had one thing in common: Freedom.
Each had that thing which Sauron could not have, so he tried to take it away.
He invaded to destroy hope, power, freedom.
He invaded because he feared their freedom.
