Fickle Ferry, which had driven them across Lake Lachrymose
once again the alliteration makes it easier for children to remember but it also just sounds good. a storybook world without the cliche'd happy ending. plus, lake lachrymose "tearful or given to weeping", a lake made of tears or prone to causing them. freaking brilliant.
“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are 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.”
― The Fellowship of the Ring
