Frieren could pave the way for a LOTR epilogue story. Tolkien famously abandoned his own New Shadow sequel because “proved both sinister and depressing”. In a Frieren-like hypothetical story, even if the downfall of mankind from the heights of Aragorn’s Reunited Kingdom is inevitable in the grand scheme of things, we can explore the little details of early Fourth Age Middle-Earth from the eyes of an adventurous hobbit at a time when the War of the Ring is a collection of stories from the previous generation.

Alternatively, a Yuru Camp-like with a Silvan Elf protagonist could work.
