Summary
NO LONGER ON HIATUS; CH16 OUT SOON
In which the Fellowship has a much bigger quest to worry about. The group has broken up, but one prison break, one magic ritual, and several prophecies later, they're off to destroy the Ring of Melkor and break the siege of Minas Tirith. The problem is, they're not exactly what the city was hoping for.
Pippin is presently reconsidering his life choices. Being kidnapped by the Uruk-hai, for example, was not part of the plan. Neither was becoming the vahka 'en heledh and trying not to dial Melkor every other minute. And falling in love with the princess of Long Cleeve may have been the biggest deviation of all. But Pippin rarely has a plan to deviate from, so it must be fate.
Aragorn is trying not to fall apart. He's pretty sure he's going to be the worst king ever, and not just because of the prophecies that say he'll likely bring about the fall of Middle-earth. Oh, and he has to destroy another all-powerful ring with a couple of hobbits, one of whom has a direct hotline to Mordor. What could possibly go wrong?
AU where Merry and Pippin don't escape from the Orcs, Diamond comes into the story a bit early...and Boromir doesn't stay dead for long.
