Sorry for the late review. I've been distracted by my Feanorian muses these days. Eowyn is my favorite female character in LOTR because she got to kick Nazgul butt! First off, I like how you paint your scenes--they are always so vivid and real to me--I especially liked your emphasis on gray and smoke, it sets up the dark mood of the piece very well. Using Eowyn's POV to tell the story makes it more interesting because I can only imagine what must have been going through her mind at that time. Her humility and courage is what struck me, especially with these lines: "<i>I am less than the first shy breath of spring on a winter day....I can bow and leave the stage...and lay my head on the pillow of the enemy's bones..."</i>

Don't worry about being late Smile smiley face I do appreciate your review very much and I understand the demanding muses thing, too Wink smiley face

Thanks a lot for your kind words. It was a tough challenge for me, and I'm very happy that I managed to portray Eowyn, a very popular character to give the short of it, well. Thank you Smile smiley face

Awww. This is a recent discovery and this is breathtaking! I enjoyed the focus on Celegorm here and despite his brashness and impetousness I managed to feel sorry for his eventual fate, along with his brothers. Very well-written. A piece that's nice to read and nice to receive as a gift.
