Child of the 7th Age is a guest of Tom Bombadil.

I think Galadriel narrating from the boat would bea good ending... Oh, yes, not just Legolas and Gimli going overseas but some indication ---maybe just a sentence--that Sam will come too someday.<P>Somone raised a good question about movie watchers understanding what it means to sail from Grey Havens. The whole thing about an immortal land, but one that does not bring immortality to mortals; the transition from the Dominion of Elves to the Dominion of Men--these are complicated themes. <P>How is he ever going to get this over, and still leave some sense of mystery. He may have to opt on the side of explanation, or mystery. It will be interesting to see.
