| A very moving story. Morgoth had a way of twisting even the most noble and deeply held emotions to evil. Gorlim was unlucky enough to be in his path. |

| This is beautiful, Al. It isn't easy to write from the perspective of the omniscient Creator. You've captured the sorrow, the anger and the willingness to rekindle hope. Not easy things to convey in 300 words. |

Excellently done.
The refugees' POV is almost always forgotten in epic fantasy. It's good to see a story describing both their plight and their opinion of the heroes of the story.
Well done! |

The characterisation of Ioreth is spot on. The monologue is very natural and completely in character for her.
It's really good to see a fan fiction story discussing different types of love. So much fan fiction revolves around romance that it's occasionally seems that either no other type of love exists or is worthy of mention.
This story reminds us all that writing, like life itself, has much more depth and complexity. |

Two great insights. (Having a whip doesn't make you boss and the gold-digging female dragon.)
One hilarious but deeply disturbing recipe for dwarven S'mores.
How the heck did you cram all of that into 100 words?
I'm impressed! |

This is so poignant and so easy to picture. Aragorn is portrayed true to character, never forgetting that he is the guardian of the hardwon peace, not the owner.
It is easy to see him, in a rare, quiet moment, remembering Halbarad. Their earlier relationship, which gets no mention in the books, is wonderfully depicted. Aragorn and Halbarad did not need to share their openly their feelings or even need to talk at all; they simply accept each other. He would miss that camaraderie, especially as king.
And all of that came across in a few short paragraphs.
Well done! |

| This is a realistic depiction of Elrond's sons; what drives them and how they can never forgive or forget. It also shows how noble intentions and righteous anger, if carried too long, can be self-destructive. Well done. |

| The language in these drabbles is simply beautiful. I especially liked the image of the golden wedding bands. Not all of the rings in Tolkien's world were evil. |
