On a side note: don't ever worry about my critique. I'm a perfectionist.
Why'd you think there are so many stars in the sky? I was making them and none of them came out quite like I wanted, and there they hang in the sky as a constant reminder to me of my failure to create the perfect brilliance. I'm even beginning to think I'm doomed to fail. Thankfully, neither the Moon, nor Sun, nor the Silmarils are perfect, so I'm not any worse than the others. I'm almost convinced now that Morgoth has made perfection permanently unachievable in this world. Although, one can always strive to better themselves and their art.
May the rain of imperfect failing stars cause thee no harm. |

I pity the foolish lady who wishes to go up against Vaire. At the very best, you'll end up with a very bad name passed on throughout the ages by the historians and storytellers.
As for Melkor - well, perhaps that is just as well, I do believe it is high time we forgave him and let him back into the world. He must have grown lonely in the darkness beyond the Edge of the World.
May light and darkness ever mingle,
for best is that which breaks convention
and none can understand it's reason nor conception.

*Pout* You're trying reverse psychology.... If you act like you're not mad, I won't take so much pleasure in being defiant....
Yes, I have kids too  _________________ -The Queen of Everything - so dubed by Aerin

Reverse psychology - is that what this is called now? Hmm, I do believe we never gave it a name - it is after all the oldest trick in the book. Still works like a charm though.
As for being angry? Why should I be angry? As long as you stay away from my warm cuddly pillow and bed-warmer you're unlikely to get me angry. And besides a freak accidentical meteor shower could always happen - and all'd be right with the world once more. Thankfully Manwe is nothing like Zeus and I'm quite sure he's remained faithful to me (not that he really has much of a choice... I could locate him by his cries of passion alone from the other end of the world ).

Nice to hear, but don't worry - kids are a handful even after the pasing of entire ages - they just always refuse to grow up. They behave all grown up around others, but it's really just a mask and when left alone with their Mothers, they revert to their true child-like behaviour once again.
May starshine and moonshine illuminate the nights and dispel the shadows of fear. |

And that is just getting a little too close to my own story.  |

Really? Is it already written?
Besides we're beings of light and goodness and we really can't help it, but believe in the inner goodness in everyone...
Let not the darkness bind you to its will. |

Yes - well 10 chapters are written. I'm not really one to promote my own story but it is here on Open Scrolls and is called 'Return to Middle Earth'. It's a sequel to 'Elrohir's Story.'
sorry about the shameless plug. |

Can't even get the name of my own story straight. It's a sequel to 'Elrohir's Tale.'
You see how bad I am at plugging my own stories.  |

Yap, you definitely are bad at plugging your stories.
Rule #1 is always include a clickable link like this Miriel361's tales link because otherwise reaching your stories requires to much work.
May starlight illuminate thy nights and bring peace and joy to your life. |

Rule #1? Whose rule? Yours? You're a big authority on this, are you? I mean, it's a good suggestion, yes, but to cite it as a rule is a bit much. Can you be less condescending? It would be most appreciated.

Too much work to go click on her name in the members' list? Wow. YOU ARE LAZY.

You always preach these lovely, thoughtful, peaceful 'wishes'... but your posts are like battery acid. Why not put the above in practice?
Again, my two pence...
