Orangeblossom Bramble of Willowbottom: A History

The tiny village of Willowbottom seemed an unlikely location. Yet fate had other plans. In a secluded hobbit hole life was soon to begin.

It was spring--indeed, life seemed to come back to the village. Oriothon Bramble paced back and forth outside his entrance.

"You're about to dig a hole to Rivendell there." Peals of laughter came over the hill as Horthien Variel approached.

Oriothon walked over to his window and peered in. Bariathan, his beloved, screamed and writhed as pains went through her whole body.

"A tough one, I'm afraid." Oriothon sighed and shook his head, walking away from the window.

Just when the suspense couldn't get any worse, the nursemaid came out.

"Oriothon." Her voice came soft and gentle.

Oriothon was afraid to even hope. He turned around slowly.

What he saw brought tears to his eyes. In the nursemaid's arms--a tiny bundle, wrapped snugly in a small scrap of linen.

"It's a wee lass," she said, handing her to her father.

"Why, she's as pretty as an orangeblossom," Horthien cooed, as he peered at the tiny bundle.

"Orangeblossom," Oriothon whispered. "Yes, that would be the perfect name. Orangeblossom Bramble."

Are the hobbit names accurate? (Oriothon, Bariathan, Horthien Variel) Those were made up, but Orangeblossom Bramble comes from a hobbit name-generator I found (using my name).

Re: Orangeblossom Bramble of Willowbottom: A History

Orangeblossom grew up like a Hobbit lass should?fair of face and with sweetness of spirit. She grew close to many of the Hobbits who had admired her on that long-ago day?but her most faithful companions were Samwise Gamgee and Frodo Baggins.

Frodo and Sam, as he was called, often led Orangeblossom on choice nature trails, pointing out the various plants and trees.

Their laughter could be heard among the forests of the Shire as they fashioned "jewelry" and other apparel of the flowers about them.

Having returned from one of these outings, Frodo carried the tiny lass on his shoulder as they approached Oriothon's dwelling.

"How was your day?" Oriothon asked Orangeblossom, a smile crossing his lips.

"It was great." Orangeblossom?s laughter echoed across the canyon, much to the delight of those around her.

"Thank you," Oriothon took Frodo's hand. "Thank you so much for taking Orangeblossom under your wing."

"She's a jewel." Frodo reached up and helped Orangeblossom to the ground. "I can't imagine my life without this sweet lass."

"Sounds like you've won some hearts," Bariathan smiled upon her daughter. "And no finer hearts can I find than these two."

"Agreed," Oriothon replied, smiling at Sam and Frodo. "Feel free to take her out anytime."

And so they did. Laughter often echoed across the fields of the Shire. If one followed the sound of the laughter, one could find Orangeblossom lying among the flowers, with Sam and Frodo smiling lovingly upon her.
