Heh, heh ... very amusing, all the more so for having those grains of truth in there. You have to wonder why Elrond just let Isildur go ... could he have been a little effected by the ring?  |

This is extraordinary work. You've imbued each section with such depth of understanding! and given us here a remarkable vision that Tolkien did not - that of the whole of Middle Earth at once.
One thing I would have liked - I once knew more about the Hours than I do now ... is each hour dedicated to a different focus of worship? If so, and your vignettes reflect this, it would be nice to have a little note of explanation and, so, a greater understanding. |

Wow, Sul, I'm sorry that this really didn't come across for you. While the object of the story is Pippin, not Merry, the subject (and single speaker) is one of those people Tolkien describes in the passage sited as talking about him as he goes looking for Bergil. I'm somewhat mystified as to what I could have done differently to make this clearer, or to make the dialog hang together better ... do chats between neighbors always have beginnings, middles and ends?  |

| This is great stuff, and so richly expressed! I particularly liked the wonderfully complete vision your portrait of Grima gives us of Eowyn, and that what he loves about her is so intrisically Rohirric. It's so tempting to think of Grima as being alien to Rohan, but here you've clearly made him a product of that culture that prizes beauty, horses and land so highly. |

| "vanished in a blaze of hideous light while Faramir wandered in darkness" - I really liked this part especially. |

| Interesting proposition. I like the idea that Bill was a kid the others picked on; now I wonder where his eventual animosity toward Strider came from [sequel bunny ] |

| All in fun and perfectly executed!! Tennant's snobbery and provincialism were charming and utterly convincing, as was the pacing and your wonderfully elevated vocabulary. Excellent work! |
