not quite understood that he, Merry and the others would be in some of the
books, and that others would read about them and their deeds.

I've been thinking about this, and the more I think about it, the more
I think this drabble of mine would fit better in Ithilien drabbles. I
mentioned both Gondor and Ithilien as potential subcategories; I think
I mentioned Gondor first just because I thought of it first, not
realising that the staff would treat the first choice as the most
preferrable.

Do you mind if I move the drabble to BT: Post-Ring War / Ithilien
Drabble? It won't make either category inviable, and if no one objects
I'll move it this afternoon.
