#'transcendent' is a heckin' banger of a word and frodo is such a good character for it and this was so much fun to do

I love the new idea of ask game !
I really like the word "transcendent" a lot (and Frodo is really my favorite characters so if you could do something with that it would be great)
Good luck !
Transcendent
He was no normal hobbit, see He had this elvish quality That always seemed to walk a step beyond
A part of him that seemed above The simple life he’d come to love And for the world of great adventure longed
It could be seen when he'd exceed In word or thought or noble deed In courage, kindness, wisdom; pure and right
The moments sleeping he would lie And those who loved him would descry The faintest but most undeniable light
What was it, friend, that he became In Orodruin’s horrid flame When he grasped the Ring and named it for his own?
What was it, friend, that he’d become When the Quest was said and done That found no rest or healing in his home?
You may call it cruelest fate But perhaps the journey merely waked A seed that since his making had been sown
An anxiousness, a great desire For something greater than the Shire A longing for what he had never known
What thrill! when elvish ship surpassed And left the ocean clear as glass And steered for effervescent evermore
What joy! none else could e’er compare His wand’ring soul completed there When he set foot upon that distant shore
(And all the things he’d ever dreamed Found what they were meant to be In Eressea, in Elvenhome, in Valinor)
WORD ASK GAME!
