This is a very interesting premise, which personally I haven't seen tackled before, so I am very interested to see how Denethor gets on with the king, especially given their relationship whilst Aragorn / Thorongil fought for Ecthelion. As for this chapter specifically, I enjoyed the slightly archaic flavour to the language (carven instead of carved, for example) and the fact that you kept not only the dialogue in this style but also the descriptions. The two elements of the story compliment each other very well that way. And I agree, after reading your essay on Denethor, (which was excellent), I was looking forward to seeing your fics  |

| A very promising beginning! I think you made Denethor's choice very convincing. I particularly liked his suddenly appearing just old and tired, and Gandalf saying he had been meddling for a long time. I couldn't remember if those moments had their antecedants in book or movie but I certainly saw them anew in your story. Will look forward to more. |
