| Chapter 22 just showed up in my box, and I realized I had not read anything past sixteen, yet. So nice to give Faranir some pleasant memories of his mother. Tolkien himself said that Denethor had loved Findiulas, so they must have been happy at first. You are building such lovely tension with hints that other things than the growing shadow led to her death. Even though this has taken two years to grow, keep going! It is still very good. | |

| So the mirror has been broken, as directed.I was also amused by Bergil insisting to come. i am sure he has heard Pippin's story already. And, "employment opportunities"? He should like working for the King! As everyone else, i will say, Please, do continue! | |

| Very wise of Faramir to love Eowyn for the whole of who she is! Her feistiness is a definite advantage ... most of the time. But what a place to leave the story! What happens now? Come on - more! Soon! | |

| Oh, this was great! I loved everyone's determination to be "in on" this task! I was especially tickled by Bergil and the way he stood up to the King. I can imagine him afterwards, telling himself "I can't believe I said that to the King". I wonder, did Pippin tell him of what he'd said to Elrond, or did Bergil come up with that little phrase all on his own. And it was a good thing Eowyn insisted on her sword! Now, More! More! *pretty pleeaase*makes pitiful puppy dog face* | |

| Poor Alatariel. She didn't stand much chance against the wicked wiles of her father and Seregon. Picturing her ghost trapped in the mirror world with lots of scary spectres is horrible, though. She needs to be released - and it seems as if we've got the party to do it. What kind of servants could watch her die slowly and then go in to retrieve the body! (Scared ones, probably.) I think she would have died of thirst before hunger took her though. Now to the solution! | |

| Just found this story today and I love it. You've really thought about it a lot, it's got so many details. I find it absolutly intrigueing. Keep writing please. | |

| Wow! You've certainly explained a lot in this chapter, while still leaving a good deal of mystery yet to go! Poor Alatarial, what a horrid fate! I found myself sniffling, and at the same time furious with her father for being so cruel. But if they can finish the destruction of the mirrors then she will, at last be free! (And has it *really* been two years? are you sure? It doesn't seem that long...) | |

| hey, an update! read this story at the very beginning at the year when I finally stepped into the techy world by actually getting a computer! I started reading LOTR fanfic immediately & this was one of the first ones: needless to say, it was well worth the wait for a new chapter, for the intrigue still comes across as completely fresh. Love this story.... ^_^ | |

| I'm with Arwen! You had indeed better tell us! Sooner rather than later. Things seem to be unravelling rather well - I hope there are no hiccups ahead. Aragorn and Arwen could definitely do with getting rid of their predecessors' ghosts before setting up housekeeping in the Royal Apartments. They don't want their offspring running around a la Pippin and Merry, being affected by magic mirrors. Bad as it was, Alatariel had a preferable fate to being placed in the care of that nasty Seregon. Death is one thing - corruption is another, and it sounds as if Seregon was about as corrupt as a Nazgul. Looking forward to discovering more. Author Reply: Something I'm rather embarressed about is the fact that this chapter was ready to go a week ago, and then suddenly I had a score of papers to write for school and I forgot to post it. Luckily, I have an idea what will be happening next and I'm looking forward to writing it soon! Death would be preferable to Seregon, who definitely was as corrupt as a Nazgul. More is coming soon, I hope! | |

| Welcome back. isn't it frustrating how "real life" gets in the way if time with our favorite stories? Best of luck to you with your schoolwork, and i hope your health is better. This being a lot of dialogue does not make it any less an exciting chapter that unfolds secrets and moves the story along. I will be anxiously waiting for you to decide what comes next! Author Reply: Real life can be such a bum sometimes. I guess it's just a part of "growing up". I think I know what's going to come next-at least I've got a vague idea-but finding the time to sit down and write it will be a challenge. But it will hopefully be up soon! | |
