single burst of writing". 6:3 "Mount Doom" was drafted in the same manuscript, directly without any preceding rough sketches; Christopher
Tolkien suggests that his father's "long thought" about the destruction of the Ring allowed him to write the chapter "more quickly and surely than almost any earlier chapter". The drafts 6:4 "The Field of Kormallen" (later "The Field of Cormallen") and 6:5 "The Steward and the King" (initially untitled, then "Faramir and Éowyn") similarly reached almost final form in a single stage. 6:6 "Many Partings" was first drafted in the same manuscript as the previous chapter, but in a "remarkably brief and spare" form, later extended by inserting new materials. This was followed by a fair copy and then in final form "in my father's most handsome script".
945:. Shippey comments that Tolkien "stuck determinedly to the increasingly inapposite name 'Trotter'" even when "the character had become fixed as the tall and long-legged Aragorn". He criticises the speech "But Trotter shall be the name of my house, if ever that be established, yet perhaps in the same high tongue it shall not sound so ill". Shippey writes that Tolkien was simply wrong here, observing that "trot" is "quite inconsonant with dignity when applied to a tall man" and stating that Tolkien "should have dropped the idea much earlier". He notes, too, that the speech defending an ill-sounding name survived into the final text, as Aragorn defends the name "Strider", making it the name of his royal line, the house of

The first draft of chapter 6:1 "The Tower of Kirith Ungol" reached the moment when Sam sees two orcs shot with arrows; it was close to its final form. The second draft adds Sam's temptation by the Ring. Tolkien drafted the orcs' capture of Frodo in 1944, which he described in a letter as "hav got the hero into such a fix that not even an author will be able to extricate him without labour and difficulty"; he did not work out his escape until 1947. Tolkien completed the chapter in a third draft.

In the earliest versions, the tower was round, rising in multiple tiers, and had three small horns on its top. Then it was to stand on a cloven hill, with a round arch supporting the weight of the tower. Finally in drawing 5, the tower was composed entirely of four tall narrow almost pyramidal horns, seemingly of bedrock not masonry, arranged to form a square, and rising straight from level ground.

At the same time,Tolkien was struggling with the narrative of Book 4, writing multiple versions of 4:2 "The Passage of the Marshes", which as he said in a letter were "a few pages for a lot of sweat." Groom comments that "the wanderings of Frodo and Sam mirror Tolkien's writing process: frustratingly slow progress, retracing steps and going around in circles, and pursued by an obscure malice from another, earlier story."

Initially Gandalf accompanied the hobbits to the gate to the Shire, and the story was very far from the chapter's final form. 6.9 "The Grey Havens" was first drafted in the same long manuscript as the previous two chapters. That text, as far as it went, survived largely unchanged, but several details were added, such as mentions of Fredegar Bolger, of Frodo's first illness, and of Merry and Pippin's fine clothing.
1213:"And in the centre... there stood ... a great cone of rock, two hundred feet in height... over the chasm was a mighty arch of masonry, and upon the arch a tower was founded, marvellously tall and strong.

He then broke off, not knowing where to take the story next: "and there as the beacons flared in
