Merry and Pippin journey ever deeper into Fangorn Forest.
Merry: *rummages in his oversized pack* Now, where'd I put that...
Pippin: We don't have time for this Merry! We could be attacked at any second!
Merry: Uh-huh. So? I'm not afraid of some silly Ents or ugly Orcs.
Merry was never heard from again. Pippin survived, however, but could only recount fragments of the horror he had witnessed. He would rant and rave about a 'DM' and 'Crossing Him', and none could figure what he meant. In his sleep, Pippin would call out to a long-dead Merry, crying 'Not the Squirrels!'.
