Re: The Lord of the Rings
Chapter 3: Men’s Child
It isn’t easy to surprise Eustace Scrubb. After all, he’d met a talking mouse and survived the meeting. He also turned into a dragon once upon a time, and yes, he was changed back since then, but he’d learnt to treat reality with certain dose of skepticism.
Walking through the door of the bookstore isn’t unexpected and unusual for him, but ending up in a dark and snowy forest is a completely different matter. Especially that the forest doesn’t ‘feel’ familiar.
Narnia is running through his veins because he has visited that world frequently enough to know when he crosses the line between realities. This place is NOT Narnia.
That alone is reason to worry, because he was actually expecting to end up there, considering the visitor the friends of Narnia had a few days ago. Obviously, it’s not happening. On the other hand, knowing that he would get the answers eventually, he keeps walking in the darkness. A few minutes later, he spots dim light from between the trees. He approaches slowly, but he hardly has any choice if he wants to know what is happening.
There is a man sitting by fire, gazing at him with a frown.
“Good... evening?” Eustace says, looking around. They appear to be alone.
“And who are you, Men’s child?” the man asks, but obviously isn’t surprised to see him.
Men’s child?
“Eustace... I’m Eustace Scrubb. What... who are you?” Eustace takes a step closer. The question is valid, for no human could have such bright and glowing hair.
The stranger gets up. “I’m Glorfindel, Lord of the House of the Golden Flower of Gondolin. Are you the one who is supposed to help me kill the dragon and save the world?”
Eustace smiles. Well, there is a reason why he is called Eustace the Un-Dragoned!

Re: The Lord of the Rings
Now that's an unexpected turn for this story. If it's still the same story?

Re: The Lord of the Rings
Yes, it is! It’s a fix-it story for the Hobbit/LOTR and canon ending for The Last Battle. In the following story Peter is 22, Susan 21, Edmund 19; Lucy is 17 and Eustace 16.
Both universes are mostly based on their respective movie versions, unless book versions were more suitable for the plot, with slight changes in VOTDT. Narnia timeline and events are canon compliant and the Hobbit is AU with LOTR and SIL elements included.

Wow! this is really an interesting idea! I love it! I especially enjoyed the first chapter, I guess I never really thought about the morality of the rings either. I always assumed that Aslan gave them the idea or that the house was unoccupied.
