Nine-Fingered Frodo

"Master!" cried Sam, and fell upon
his knees. In all that ruin of the world for the moment he felt only
joy, great joy. The burden was gone. His master had been saved; he was
himself again, he was free. And then Sam caught sight of the maimed and
bleeding hand.
"Your poor hand!" he said. "And I
have nothing to bind it with, or comfort it. I would have spared him a
whole hand of mine rather. But he's gone now beyond recall, gone for
ever."
"Yes," said Frodo. "But do you
remember Gandalf's words: Even Gollum may have something yet to do? But
for him, Sam, I could not have destroyed the Ring. The Quest would have
been in vain, even at the bitter end. So let us forgive him! For the
Quest is achieved, and now all is over. I am glad you are here with me.
Here at the end of all things, Sam."
