    Summary

    After he held Vincent’s hand for support, and he was sitting upright again with some effort, he asked, “Do you think our saintly dead come to us to remind us of our tasks?”

    He seemed surprised, to have said it at all. But that happened often, when people spoke to Vincent; all his life, it had been so.

    “I think our saintly dead come to us to remind us of their love,” Vincent said. He cupped Lawrence’s hands in his, close, to try to lend them some of his warmth.

    Summary

    After years of traveling to Erebor to celebrate the New Year with his dwarven friends, Bilbo Baggins decides that the time has come to stay in the Shire. He has certain familial obligations that have gone unaddressed for too long. Specifically, an orphaned nephew who needs him. Much as he will miss the Durin's Day celebrations, and a certain dwarf in particular, his travels must end. Fortunately, that does not preclude others from traveling to visit him.
