Stalker? I should be so lucky!
The next 2 are still being beta-ed. And then I will have to run them by admin here, as I think there may be some issues with some dialog. I don't think there's a problem, but Nazgul Dan is concerned, so I will do what he wants.
I am pleased that you like this--that's the sort of thing that keeps me going. RL, OTOH, well--let's not go there. Let's just say I'd send my stepsister to the Orcs, except the Orcs are innocent. |

| Hmm. I am supposed to be working tonight. But I got a nifty note in my email saying that you had updated, so I wandered over for my witch-king fix. And was not disappointed. These last two chapters were kind of short and filled with mostly background information... I can only imagine that you're leading up to a major arc. And can't wait. |

Thanks! Now, the issue of Chapter Length is really Nazgul Dan's fault. He said that the last two had to be split. I said No, but he insists, and anyone with size 16 shoes always gets his way!  |

Like I said, it's all Nazgul Dan's fault that they weren't all one chapter. I'm going to make him read this, so he will believe me. Right now he's recovering from a migrain, but he'll eventually be up to it.  |

| This chapter was a nice addition to the story. I especially enjoyed the interaction between Ariashal, the king, and the royal children. He is so patient with them, even when they're being snarky. And the little princess's blue boots were a nice touch. Your reasoning behind the elves' failure to act against Sauron was also impressive. I can see the gears whirring in Gil-Galad's head, and of course he would choose to wait and see, rather than trust and act. Elves, after all, have infinite patience. And not a lot of trust. Very nice bit. Thanks for updating! |

Thanks, Viv.
As for the kids, he knows all too well just how precious time is with them. His first son was taken away, his second family was lost when he claimed the ring, and other children were killed.
Besides, when they get too rowdy he can always have their nurses take them.  |

| His first son, eh? See, now you've made me curious. I bet you have a whole stack of backstory on this guy. Any chance, after you finish this tale, you might write scenes/snippets/ficlets about witch-king: the early years? |
