"Pippin was also a friend of Frodo and agreed to join him to Rivendell. At the end he was permitted to join the Fellowship of the Ring together with Merry to make the total number of nine walkers. When the Fellowship broke up, Merry and Pippin were captured by orcs who wanted to bring them to Isengard. Thanks to Eomer and his men they escaped and went to Fangorn forest. There they met Treebeard and convinced the Ents to fight Saruman in Isengard. After the battle was won, Pippin went to Minas Tirith together with Gandalf. In Minas Tirith he was interrogated by Denethor about the death of Boromir. He then swore loyalty to Gondor and became a Guard of Minas Tirith. He followed the armies of Gondor to Mordor where he lost conscience during the final battle. After the War of the Ring he went back to the Shire but returned to Gondor. His grave is in Rath Dinen besides King Elessar and Merry.

Quote:
The old man laid the sword along his lap, and Pippin put his hand to the hilt, and slowly said after Denethor:
'Here do I swear fealty and service to Gondor, and to the Lord and Steward of the realm, to speak and to be silent, to do and to let be, to come and to go, in need or plenty, in peace or war, in living or dying, from this hour henceforth, until my lord release me, or death take me, or the world end. So say I, Peregrin son of Paladin, of the Shire of the Halflings.'
"Shall we continue to our next character: Gandalf ?"
