This is great. I liked the use of language and just the description of Sauron's lieutenant's transformation.

Ooo, I liked this a lot! I agree with Picara; the way you descibe him is brilliant. It´s amazing how easy it was for me to 'see' him even though it was such a short piece.
Also, it´s good to be reminded of the fact that he once was just a man.

Very good job, indeed! Smile smiley face

Ditto. I liked his fall from a man to Sauron's servant. Great job.

Wow, this is impressive. I really love when the tragedy of the downfall is conveyed so poetically. It makes it so much harder to hate characters like Annatar, Khamul, Maeglin, etc, when they are assigned a bit of the humanity (or godhood, etc.) that they once held. Adds a whole new element to any story to realize that there but for the grace of Eru... Haunting, tragic and lovely.

Great drabble. The last line was particulary impactful. It hard to think of the Nazgul as once great kings but they were.
