Fear No Darkness  by Thundera Tiger 2 Review(s)
TithenFeredirReviewed Chapter: 24 on 3/8/2005
A broken body and a mind devoid of all hope...and the purpose to turn Merry and Legolas into something similar to an orc. You create sonme real foreboding in that. It's good that the four groups have at last devised a plan of sorts, but the tension is still getting thicker all the time. I really liked the battle of wills between Thranduil and Celeborn...I imagine the air crackled around them! I'm hoping that you are going to write Mery and Legolas' healing after this is over! TF


Author Reply: I had great fun putting Celeborn and Thranduil...well, not at odds, but not entirely on the same side of the issue. They're very similar in many respects, but they're also worlds apart, so it's itneresting to see where they stand with one another. At least, I think so. Not all of that came out in the chapter, but it was fun to explore for me.

It's me again. Aren't I annoying? I've just thought up a great and happy ending to your fic. The Mouth of Sauron becomes wearied by the resistance of Merry and Legolas and of the advance of the rescue team. Decides to relinquish his grip on Legolas for a while, to concentrate on Merry, because Legolas seems far gone into the darkness and less likely to escape. He underestimates Legolas, who makes a dashing recovery, and manages to run into Orophin and Haldir, who stumbled onto another entrance to the Orc cavern during a brotherly argument. Together, the three elves find the main rescue mission and return to save Merry and cleanse him from the darkness. The Mouth of Sauron is killed by any one of the heroes and all is happy. See what a happy little world I live in? But after reading the end to this chapter I've decided that all will work out anyways. I'm glad Celeborn finally decided to share his information. Keep writing and updating! Oh and by the way- did you get all your information concerning the Black Númenorians out of the Silmarillion?
