Undyling Lands Part 2

[The Saucepan Man]

Wasn't that almost what I wrote a few posts above?

Yes, I had noticed that your thoughts were along the same lines, Gorthol.

Not so bad for Bilbo, who had already had a fair old innings, but quite sad, if true, for Frodo, Sam and Gimli. But then again, the wonder of the place probably made up for the shortened days. And perhaps, being timeless, time appeared (to mortals) to pass slower there.
