Geez, ok.

So, first things first, this will not ever be continued.

I mean, it's only one chapter, less than 500 words at that, I just want to make this clear.

I think I was 13 when I wrote this, I can tell by how condescending the Authors Note is, and so I'll give props to myself for doing anything at that age, but just for anyone who might have... hope(?), it's uhh, not here.

I get it though, despite reaction fics being a dime a dozen, there just don't seem to be any for Lotr, and I very clearly remember this desert amidst an ocean being my initial inspiration. I'm afraid I don't have any good recommendations, this story concept just hasn't been written as far as I can find, but I wish anyone who comes across this the best of luck in their fic search, and a very good morning. :)
