Really enjoying this now it's got into its stride. You've created some lovely, 'telling' phrases - like 'And straw men do not scream' and 'The tang of blood and bowel' (both in Chapter 4 I think) which are very strong indeed. I am looking forward to reading more, although I fear her passion for Faramir is doomed!
(Why are there not more romantic Faramir stories? He's one of my faves, but in my opinion, too few writers exploit his possibilities!)
Anyway - congrats and please write more!

An interesting story. I like seeing LOTR action from a different perspective, however with OFC there is always the problem of trying to not make them too strong, too heroic, too beautiful etc.

The name Eored buggs me. I don't think that a Rohirrim mother would name her son Eored. Check The Encyclopedia of Arda http://www.glyphweb.com/arda/ : "An éored was the main military division of the Rohirrim, normally consisting of one hundred and twenty Riders. "

I'm glad to see that you've added another chapter. Too often stories are abandoned. Is our heroine going to wake up and notice Dior in the next chapter or will she remain oblivious awhile longer?

Really like what you have done with this. Your characters are a rare blend of canon and movie verse as well as au and you make it all work well. I like seeing the development of characters that really would be considered supporting ones elsewhere but you give them life and depth seldom achieved. Am looking forward to more chapters. Soon I hope.
