The rules of this challenge were to write a story featuring hobbits, any
genre, length or rating, using a starting sentence provided by Marigold.
This time the same starter was assigned to 10 different authors, for the
fun of seeing how different each individual’s hobbity story is from
the others written from the same starter...
All stories that share the same starter are archived together. Stories with
mature content have been clearly marked.
