    Summary

    Bilbo is sailing to the Undying Lands but wary of letting go of the guilt that has been with him for many decade. His most sincerest wish is to go back and change what was done. Before reaching the lands of peace and healing, he dies aboard the ship and finds that his wish is being granted, not because he is the one to wish it but because this is the dwarves last chance to escape a fate of eternal waiting. He finds that not only is he going to be sent back to his younger body, but so is the entire Company of Thorin Oakenshield. Time is a fickle thing and not all the members have their memories returned to them at the same time. The journey on becomes interesting as the dwarves slowly remember and fight for themselves and their kin, yet new hurdles are thrown at them when they realize that more people remember than expected...

    Summary

    “Are you absolutely sure you saw a halfling?” Thorin demanded.

    Kili paused as he looked at his uncle. For the first time, he almost thought he saw some hope in those dark blue eyes. His smile softened, he knew how important this was to his family, and to his people. Finding a hobbit was the only redemption for the dwarrow of Erebor, especially for the line of Durin.

    He took his uncle's calloused hand and said, “I swear it uncle. At least one hobbit still lives.”

    _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Of all the tales in Arda, there was none so tragic as the history of hobbits.

    Bilbo lived a peaceful life hiding in the Shire. It was quiet, safe, and a little bit lonely. Though loneliness was a small price to pay if it meant keeping his existence a secret. After all, getting captured by the savage dwarves of Erebor meant certain death. At least that's what the stories his mother used to tell him warned.

    Never trust a dwarf.

    Summary

    The hobbit's eyes grow wide in realization. In terror. But his panic is not directed at the fall or even the iron grip holding him aloft over the battlements. He feels his organs twist within him, changing.

    Yavanna did not leave her hobbits defenseless, but the Price is high, and Bilbo's debt has come due.
