The sound of hooves and clashing swords echoed in this one. Very well written and evocative! Thanks for sharing.  |

Had to take a peek at this when I spotted it was about the Rohirrim!
A nice drabble, very evocative of the pride and culture of the people of Rohan. Well done, am glad to see you are posting stories so soon LadyofRohan!  |

Very sharp imagery. The statement is valid and strongly delivered. If there is anything to be said about this, it would be that the word "and" is used over-abundantly. Also, the line:
"But they were Rohirrim. And a valliant death is better than a life not lived." would benefit from a difference in punctuation.
"But they were Rohirrim, and a valiant death is better than a life not lived."
Also, "...before steel; steel of sword..." should have a comma more than a semi-colon.
And, again in the last line: "They are Rohirrim. And while they draw breath they will fight."
I think a semi-colon here: "They are Rohirrim; and while they draw breath, they will fight."
Just my opinions, mind you. Otherwise, this is everything everyone else has said, and more.
Thank you for sharing. I was happy to find this on the featured story. Too many good fics go unread, I must read every one that is posted.  |
