    Jen, I still need to borrow Hexwood from you. Last time it was in my house, I only got to read about three chapters, and that isn't nearly enough to get a feel for what the book is about. Next time you come over, think you could bring it with you? Pretty please??

              "Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
              Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
              Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
              One for the Dark Lord on it's dark throne
              In the Land of Mordor where the shadows lie.
              One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
              One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
              In the land of Mordor where the shadows lie."
              All that is gold does not glitter,
              Not all those who wander are lost;
              The old that is strong does not wither,
              Deep rootsare not reached by the frost.
              From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
              A light from the shadows shall spring;
              Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
              The crownless again shall be king.
              Comradely, Diego

              Blow wind, come wrath; at least I will die with the harness off my back.

                  What I had written isn't the first line on the 46th page but I thought it may be cool to write what I writed.
                  The 1st line on the 46th age is:
                  The lesser rings were only essays in the craft before it was full-grown, and to the Elven-smiths they were but trifles- yet still to my mind dangerous for mortals.

                  "Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
                  Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
                  Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
                  One for the Dark Lord on it's dark throne
                  In the Land of Mordor where the shadows lie.
                  One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
                  One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

                    Not sure what the first line on the 46th page is. But the first line on the last page is So they went off together. Real descriptive, huh?
