They are very pretty, but Haldir does not like them. Maybe one reason why she did it.

Very Happy smiley face

You are welcome on the thanks. Just a little viginette from my novel.

A very sad series. But, you have evoked the very feelings of those who cannot, or will not follow. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks. And, yes, that was the image I have. After the provincial life of Lórien, I would think that Imladris would seem almost urban. And, I am not sure he accompanied them to the Havens. I think he was probably home planning his "take-over". Naw, I know he was involved with Mirkwood (unless that is fanon. I am not sure where I heard that. I really have not finished ROTK.) Just another little twist in my mind. Glad you liked it.

I think the realization that the attackers were her own kind made this all the more horrifying. Of all the enemies that ran through her head, elves had to be the last she expected. And, their willingness to put children to the sword made them all the more warped. A very nice gap-filler. I sometimes wonder if Tolkien was just a poor writer that he left so many holes, or if he just tried to bite off more than he could chew. On the other hand, I have heard it speculated that he left so much out to encourage others to fill in the blanks. A deep question to ponder.
Thank you for sharing.

This is a very nice piece. I could have cried, but it has a happy ending, so I will not. Thank you for sharing.

What a great drabble Rous! You capture the weakness of men very well. I love the small twist of it, at first I think it is Isildur, but then like a small surprise it is a female's perspective! Thumb smiley face

I live to please. And, I cannot resist the little twists. Still holding out on the other riddle drabble. There has not been a category for it, yet.

Nice. And the hints of later. Succinct without sacrificing anything. Thank you for sharing.

"He he! Yeap, a woman would definitely know what to do! (although the fact that the ring was all pure gold and shiny does not bode very well for us!)"

Still, the fate of the world, the souls of men in the balance, I would like to think that a woman would weigh that against the allure of "pretty, shiny". At least the guilt of knowing that you were responsible for all the death and destruction to come would be likely to sway one.

Could Will Have Its Way · Mon Oct 10, 2005 5:03 am

A map into the deep recesses of madness. This is quite sad, that he risked the kingdom he was entrusted with for so futile a venture. I did find something that jarred me, though. In the line "Impotent was my power, futile my foresight, darkness my vision." I am not sure darkness is quite right. I see just dark as working better here. JMHO. On the surface it works either way, and it is your piece. Very good read. Thank you for sharing.

Alas, Poor Ufthak! · Sun Oct 09, 2005 7:09 am

This was just too funny. Very nicely done. Thank you for sharing.
