My Sword Trembles - Book Three - 'My Sword' Series  by Agape4Gondor 3 Review(s)

I rejoice she recognizes that she was saved from enslavement. She thinks Saruman is bad? He's nothin' compared to the Eye! Fortunate indeed! And if Gandalf is never late and arrives precisely when he means to, he also tends to arrive precisely when he is needed! I suspect Eru has a good deal to do with that....

Author Reply: She definitely is smart enough to know exactly what the Eye wants... but will she stay away? If something else happens to Faramir, now that she has it, will she use it to save him?

'Bout time Gandalf showed up!

Uh-oh; does Mithrandir want Indis to risk her sanity by continuing to use the Sauron-linked Stone, or does he want to know if she is wise enough to leave it alone, or use it very sparingly? Danger all around.

Looking forward to more. I'd like to see some Faramir/Mithrandir scenes; surely they will forge a good relationship in this AU...

Author Reply: I truly don't think Mithrandir condones Indis' actions, buy cannot stop her from using a tool given by the Elves.

Ah - stop listening to my muse - Faramir will be along shortly and, thankfully, Mithrandir is still about. Though he is one to disappear without a word...

The thought of Indis falling victim to the power of the Palantir sends chills through me. Thank goodness her strength enabled her to resist it. Mithrandir’s arrival was well timed. Too bad he can’t lock that horrible stone somewhere forever. I, too, wonder if she will use it again. I hope this scary lesson will help her to resist.

Author Reply: You never know, Tari. Sometimes the needs of the many... Perhaps if she felt Faramir were in danger... she very well might have looked, if she'd found it earlier, when Faramir was lost in Ithilien....
