but to be with others who can see it? Or have been there?
if Faery is in the Shire as well as Gondor.. then its the ability (and
willingness) to see Faery.
perhaps that why Eomer called for them.. his eyes were also opened to fairy
and needed his friends with him in the end who understood. I would imagine the
halfling who saved his Sister from death must seem like Faery to him.
The hobbits are interesting in this light, they are surprising sights to most
men in the tale, stuff of old tales and ledgends, but at the same time the
mundane. They seem to embody that border between the mundane and
Faery.
