You know I love the old Wizard, after all. He's seen so much and so many, and how he must have come to honor these who saw to the end of the Ring Itself. And I loved the prompt because of the ties it has to the seasons. It's a full year now since the Ring was at last identified, and to have it come full circle to a spring such as few could have dreamt could return out of the mists of memory must have awed even him.

Thanks so, Linda!
