Medea, this is excellent. I love your use of language in this - so authentic. Great to see the young Eomund - and I am falling for your Thengel King.

Working with Eomund was quite fun, and I learned some things that I didn't know before! And I'm glad you like Thengel. Now I need to get my butt in gear and work on that story. Thank you!

Just a line to say how much I enjoyed this - and good to see a Shieldmaiden being allowed to fight!

Yes, things would have gone very badly if Saexburga hadn't been there. Thanks very much!

Wow, those verbs are excellent. They really move the action scenes and set the stage at the beginning. I swear it felt muddy and icky here in my kitchen when I was reading. Smile smiley face Also, Saexbruga! Is she canon or an original? She's mighty! Finally:

"He didn’t need more broken blades! Just one good sword, for the love of Eru, just one!"

bwahahas! Great slinky in-joke there.

I'm glad you liked my verbs. LOL! Saexburga is an original character, but the name belongs to Gwynnyd. She once mentioned that I didn't use any blood-thirsty names. Wink smiley face Thanks for reviewing, Viv!
