Oh, boy. Now they are really in trouble. You are the queen of cliffhangers. Luckily, there are already more chapters out. I love the way how you paint the atmosphere in the story. It has me on the edge of my seat.

I hope that the Captain follows them. At least Faramir is faithful to the charge given him. And we know both managed to survive the ordeal.

Oh my! Good stuff indeed. I hope the Captain made it. Don't think he did, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed until proven wrong. And Boromir? Hope it's him, because he'll se that Faramir and Mablung have the help they need to survive this.

Very exciting. I hope it's not long before the next part arrives!

You had me reading quickly, trying to see how this would all come out! Neither Faramir nor Mablung is in good shape here.

Ooh! The plot thickens, and so do the perils surrounding our heroes. Faramir's in trouble, the Captain's in trouble, Mablung's in trouble - are we having fun yet? Well, as a reader, I certainly am.

Excellent conveyance of the hunting, Faramir and the Captain's dogged courage in the dark, quiet night with death on their heels. And a little dunking in the Anduin to refresh the youngsters - NOT!

Oiolairė was also, the tree, in Numenor, from which were cut the "bough of return" that was laid upon the prow of a ship to sail from Numenor to Middle-earth for luck, by a woman usually the kin of the ship's captain (see Unfinished Tales). It's a great name for a rural village, though from your note, it doesn't survive for very much longer...
