| An excellent and shivery chapter! I loved the transition from the immediacy of Denethor's living hell to the story and legend of later years. The fire is far more comfortable in the hearth as a backdrop to a grandfather telling a scary story than it was on the pyre. Pippin's interaction with his little granddaughters is wonderful! Loved the bit about Denethor's desk with talons for feet that had fascinated Faramir as a child. And of course, the poignancy of Denethor's finally showing his love for Faramir at a time when Faramir cannot hear or see him is tragic; because we know that father and son will never have the opportunity to speak to each other again. | |

| I don't think i've ever reviewed this story, but I've read it form it's beginning & am glad to see the update. Thanks for writing the Hurin men so close to the character I see them as - good also to see Imrahil. And thanks for giving us the human side of Denethor. | |
