| Ooo, this is fascinating! I can't wait for more. So Ecthelion had the palantir locked away? Smart man. Of course, I did always get the impression that he was wiser than his son. I bet Ecthelion would have ADORED Faramir.... Keep up the good work! cheers, Chibi-Kaz | |

| French Pony, this is superb. Denethor had found the Palantir locked away and has begun to use it. What awful visions, and he does not know which son is which in them,thank goodness. I wonder if Ecthelion knew of it and that was why is was under lock and key? Look forward the the next. Eokat. | |

| Oh, how sweet. Too bad Denethor goes mad later. Please keep writing. | |

| This is a super start. I enjoyed reading your characterizations of the Family. It all started so innocently, but as we know the worse is yet to come. I think I will enjoy this story as much as your last one. Eokat. | |

| The characterizations in this were very well done. Denethor is hard to catch, because he was undeniably flawed and when he took to using the palantir, it damaged him, I think (although not like PJ showed. That was a travesty). But he's well done here, a good father to Boromir and well enough intentioned. And Boromir is a very convincing 5 year old. | |

| "...my epic battles with the monsters which dwell beneath his bed" Teeheehee! My only gripe about this is that you have drawn your portrait of the loving, happy first family of Gondor almost too well - making the thought of the sequel more than thirty years down the line even more painful! That is however an eminently forgivable 'error' on your part. I do look forward to where you're going to take this, as you seem to be able to write Denethor with a certain amount of sympathy - an unusual trait! I thought your comment about King Lear was telling - and it bodes well, as I've always thought the two were similar. | |
