An Act of Desperation  by Shieldmaiden of Rohan 1 Review(s)
Raksha The DemonReviewed Chapter: 2 on 3/1/2005
Good job on the flashback to Theodred's teaching little Eowyn to fight. It felt very real.

And the ending caught Eowyn's desolation very well; she's the only one left, left behind with a failing King in a dark, doom-ridden Hall. Brrr! Where's Beowulf when you need him? I can see why Aragorn is going to really seem like the answer to her prayers and the brightest Knight-In-Shining-Armor a sorrowful young woman could imagine - no way will she see the man behind the hero.

Author Reply: I couldn't resist the flashback... poor Theodred got completely shafted in LotR. (I think I've been around Galenmir too long in Fandom.)

Good. That means the setup is working. :D

Just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate your faithful, well-thought out reviews. :)
