Where was Frodo most at peace? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Huinesoron · Today, 11:37 AM

I'm working on a fanfic, and want to evoke the place Frodo found the most peace or rest after Weathertop. I was going to use the Shire, but that's wrong: Sam found peace in the restored Shire, but Frodo didn't, not really. I'm assuming Lorien or Rivendell, but I don't really know.

Before anyone starts: yes, the correct answer is Eressëa, but given that's where the scene actually takes place, I can't really evoke it within the scene. (If I have to I'll go back to BoLT and use some of the Kortirion description, but I'd prefer something specific to Frodo.)

Rivendell, before the Fellowship was assembled. He was with Bilbo, Sam, Merry, Pippin and Gandalf. He at least thought his task was over and that he could return to the Shire, leaving the matter of the Ring to the great ones. He had not yet suffered, other than the wound at Weathertop, and he was not yet dealing with the loss of the Ring.
