Well, finally, I had enough time to sit and read the next installment of The Key series (and sorry for being late with my review. RL has been damn busy, ehhh), and boy! I enjoyed those two chapters verrrrry much!
I smiled at the fact that Tindome was embarrassed having been a subject of some sort of discussion between Rumil and his brother. Gossipy elves! LOL! Not to mention that she was informed about that by the two Els -- that didn't help, did it...? . A very good job of providing the conversation between them; I really felt as if watching a tennis match.
You picked a few very interesting topics here, all those fascinating cultural differences, and I caught myself thinking just how I'd react or what I'd say ad vocem. I sort of felt sorry for Tindome, becuase she thought she'd learned a lot about the elves, and suddenly she found herself surprised. I guess it's part of being an -- let's say -- immigrant, and the immigrant among the immortal beings, no less!
Then, I also enjoyed the humor, a very strong advantage of your story. Still, the hints of sorrow and melancholy in the mentions of the battle of Helm's Deep, then of Galadriel, Gandalf and their trip to the West made me nod thoughtfully.
Thank you for continuing the series. I'm looking forward to the next part.
Cheers,
Binka |

So glad that you have found this and are enjoying it. There will continue to be a mixture of saddness and fun - and in typical elven fashion neither will be obvious to those outside the close group...
As usual I am well ahead on the writing compared with posting - but my internet connection tonight is very iffy, not good enough to post another chapter - I will probably do so tomorrow if the connection is any better! |

You've built the heavy atmosphere of this piece very well. Good job of adding a hint of creepiness to it. Well done Thank you for sharing. |

Yeah, I tried to build upon the creepiness Tolkien put into the Moria chapters. Of course this is nothing to what he did... oo, those chapters are freaky to read late at night.
Thanks for reading!  |

This was a really fantastic read. What a brave little girl you created. She was forced to face utter horror and still she managed to take care of her younger siblings, being a 10-year-old herself! You described the horrific events very well, to the point I could nearly hear the noise and smell the smoke -- a very vivid picture you painted with words here. The conclusion of the story gives hope and shows how strong this girl is despite her young age. Very, very well done! I'm now looking forward to having enough time to read the sequel.
Thank you so much for sharing  |

| This was great, Nancy. The thoughts of Imrahil and the ambiguity of power were most excellently captured. Bravo! |

| Thanks, Bink! Hard for me to imagine Imrahil couldn't have been tempted to better his brother-in-law, if only for his sister's sake, though so much more hung in the balance here. Glad you enjoyed this. |

If anyone asks me, I'd say that Stacy is pretty annoying, but she did her job, didn't she? Oh, and what an end!
Glad to see you have updated this story. Thanks. I'm looking forward to more. |
