   Summary

   STORY COMPLETE! “The Return of the King” alternate ending.

   Whilst disguised as orcs within Mount Doom’s foothills, Frodo and Sam were discovered and brought to Sauron. The Dark Lord reclaimed his Ring and imprisoned the Hobbits within the darkest cell of Barad-dûr. However, even reunited with his Ring, Sauron was not yet powerful enough to take a corporal form, and so . . . he took another one. One from a lineage he had long obsessed over, loathed, even feared, and whose form was as precious to the beings of Middle-earth as The Ring of Power was to Sauron.

   OR— Sauron imprisons Frodo and Sam, possesses Aragorn’s body, and Legolas risks everything — gives everything—- in an effort to save them.
