My god. Gorgeous, Citrine. Gorgeous.

Author Reply: Thanks for the review!
As can probably be guessed, I was deeply obsessed with The Silmarillion when I was writing this, (and I even had a nightmare or two where I was running through the streets of Nargothrond, trying to warn the populous-but I don't speak Elvish, of course, even in my dreams, and they always ended badly. Very badly.)I also sort of 'scored' it to the tune of the Two Towers movie soundtrack, and played it while I was writing. (Particularly 'Evenstar' while writing the first chapter, and 'Helm's Deep' during the last two chapters.) Anyway, I suppose I've rambled enough here for two or three thank you's, but thanks so much for giving it a look:)

This is nicely done. The characters are well evoked and the Sil stuff is clear and worked in with care. We'll see how the Black Hand does!

Author Reply: *Wince* Oooooh, umm, I really appreciate your kind review, but Turin (And Orodreth) will never have more than a cameo in this story, and no dialogue. Tolkien has already written their story, about ten thousand times better than any attempt of mine could be. I felt like no one would give a darn about a story starring OC's, so I just threw in a few mentions. My apologies to you, or anyone else, I may have misled.
