Out of All Knowledge  by Budgielover 131 Review(s)

I admit you scared me a bit there - a little external heart massage - I truly feared that if Frodo had passed he would pass into the wraith world and truly be beyond their reach.

How awful this was for them all, for all the hobbits and the elves and everyone there. And they are not done yet :( I thought Merry's thoughts as he tried to compose a letter to his parents was touching - what can one say? What should one say? And then sometimes you decide it it best to wait until the end to see if anything can be said at all....

Budgielover, you are just great!

I am shameful that I have not reviewed your stories before, but now I will.

I love your carachterizations of the hobbits. I especially love Merry, but I think he will collapse soon always looking out for Pip and staying strong and helping out. I love that he offerd to monitor Frodo`s pulse. I think it is good for Frodo to feel a hobbit`s touch among all these elves, even if he is unconsious.

Please update soon!

Poor, little guys! been through so much and they still don't have any peace of mind! I hope Elrond finds that shard soon! Terrible! I loved it, though you do such a wonderful jobing writing everyone, really it is wonderful! I'm looking forward to more, thank you!

I am very much enjoying this story. Tolkien leaves a critical gap, and one that you know had to be filled with deep emotion for everyone involved. Looking forward to the next chapter.

Oh, how can you leave it like this? You must update quickly, quickly , you hear?

This is very well done, and I'm enjoying every word. It's just hard to wait on such a cliffhanger!

Well, I don't believe you kill him because he has to save Middle Earth. This is dramatic nonetheless. I have to say that, hopeless elf girl that I am, I am particularly charmed by the small glimpes of the sons of Elrond helping their father and being amused by the tone in which the hobbits speak to him.

How can you do two stories at once like this? It would drive me crazy.

Author Reply: Hi Daw. Thanks for the review. I'm answering questions today, and hope you don't mind that this response is a bit late. (Okay, okay ... very late.) As to how I can keep two stories running at once - I don't really know. I just seem to have no trouble switching my mindset back and forth. For that time I'm working on that story, no other exists. I usually have two stories running and one preparing to start ("Riding the Nightmare" in which I just finished chapter seven and am waiting for my beta-reader to start sending them back but I want to wrap up on of my others first) and at least one short story. I am so single-minded focused on Middle-earth and what's happening when I'm there that I think the smoke alarm could go off and I wouldn't notice...

Thanks for following my stories. I'm always so honored when you say you like my work!

How awful and trying these days must have been! Despite knowing of their success, it is still terribly difficult to read of the suffering of Frodo and the agony of those who had to watch him, helplessly.

What? Why didn't Elrond listen to Merry when he tried to warn him about the irregular pulse? You can't leave us hanging! Starts chanting: "Update, update...!" Well, you get the idea. And really I'm the first reviewer for this chapter. Cool!
