Advent Calendar 2009 - 12: The Wheel of Fortune

Once more, today's prompt took a little bit of figuring out...



My, but his head hurt!

Bilbo grunted shoved at the damp rock beneath him, and then found the fingers of his other hand digging through loose, wet grit. He was about to push himself up to sit when those digging fingers found something else. Something small. Something smooth. Something round.

A ring.

Without a thought, he picked it up, wiped away the clinging dirt, and shoved it into his pocket. Time enough to see what he'd discovered when he was safe and warm and dry and had light. Right now, he needed to focus on not getting caught by goblins.

How wonderfully appropriate for this drabble to have Bilbo and the One Ring meet at last! And I could just see the whole scene from the movie as you wrote this!

You really have a gift of words and putting them all in the right order. Thank you for that!

Hugs,
