Hookbill the Goomba · 10-05-2005, 11:36 PM

West farthing. The Shire was always, as Frodo (and indeed Bilbo) thought to be a place of comfort for them, as Frodo believed that he should always be comforted that the shire was safe behind. The West farthing was where Bag end was and was the last part of the shire before the sundering sea.

Hookbill the Goomba, if what you have in mind is Hill of Sorcery then that's what I meant when I said Hill of Black Magic, sorry for the loose translation. If not, keep going, I'm really running out of such places soon...
