Marta this is an extraordinary, sensitive, complex and beautifully thought out piece of work. It is shocking to think of a hobbit contemplating his own death, let alone those of his friends and loved ones, but at the same time perfectly reasonable thanks to the strength of your writing.
I think my favorite part was the simple and Oh-so-hobbit-like "Why did things have to change?" Perfect. |

| Really great, LBJ, and it all comes down to that last line. I love it when a drabble, or anything for that matter, makes that strong, punchy, provocative statement. If you'd started with it, I would have read on most intrigued by the seeming conflict and strong language to see what you meant, but to have it at the end - after the development of the situation which leads to that statement's truth, just makes the end that much more powerful. Very, very, satisfying. |

I did enjoy it. Took me a minute to really catch on, but then the second read was only that much more enjoyable, Pellenor fields suddenly sounded like the perfect name for a suburban subdivision!  |

| That's such an interesting idea! That all of Meduseld, in a way, would be waiting to hear the cry of a new child in the house. Really brings home both the normal and extraordinary tension and joy of the event inevitably both public and private, as is any birth. |

| Nice, Vilwarin. Very interesting parallel you've made here. I like the idea of a decisive Aragorn - although I realize this could apply to any of the Chieftains. |

| This is interesting, that Theodred's death was intentional rather than just a casualty. I like the image of Saruman looking over Eomer cradling Theodred. Make's E seem very vulnerable and Saruman so menacing! |
