Oh Lush, poor Glorfindel - fearsome as the Nazgul were, still, against a temperamental Slav... he'd be ordering twenty-cask crates of the wines of Dorwinion before too long, wouldn't he?

And the more I think about it - as good as it would have been for Frodo to "find someone" as they put it, she would have had to be a very resilient and even-tempered someone. He would have been very difficult to live with, just as a result of all that agony. It would be a remarkable hobbit-maid who could begin to understand what had happened to his mind - if your idea of the world turned upside down is Sharkey's Men closing the Green Dragon, how could you begin to comprehend Mount Doom?
