The Hunting Trip  by Ithilien 15 Review(s)
NightwingReviewed Chapter: 40 on 8/27/2003
You started out this chapter with Faramir staring at the water, watching the swirls and eddies, and I just knew a pair of dark heads were going to come bobbing along. A couple of half-drowned little rats they are, too, poor things. But Aragorn and Arwen are nothing if not resiliant, so I'm sure we'll be moving quickly into the big rescue very soon. (Did you see what happened to Viggo during the "drowning Aragorn" scene in TTT?)

So, who is that kind-faced old woman Framir saw as he was being treated by Kattica for his injuries? DO NOT tell me it was Bregus in her earler days, when she was once nice and caring. I hate her and am determined to cling to this mindset. I want justice for what she has done to Legolas, who chose to punch her rather than kill her when he had the chance. I also want justice for the poor slaughtered Elves in your first chapter. I have not forgotten about them. Vaporize the old bat.

You have promised to return our dear characters to full health... I remember this, so it seems to me you cannot possibly be finishing within the next few chapters. It'll take a least ten more just to get Legolas back on his feet after everything that has been done to him. Serious hopitalization needed here. I am really looking forward to his reunion with Gimli. I'll have the kleenex ready.

Now I must start with the attempt to figure out how to get my story over here. Hell, I don't even know what kind of browser I have. Lord have mercy... I think Nilmandra may not want me until I take my computer class next month. I'm going to plague the life out of her. "OK, now I push what button?"

Yeahhhh, you updated!! I am so glad that Arwen and Aragorn are finally out of that cave.
Am I close in guessing that the waterfall may play a role in the plan to rescue everyone in the protected place?? Or at least a way for our heros to get in unnoticed?
I like the fact that Faramir and Gimli are not going to rely on the force of the soldiers to rescue their friends, that would be so boring and anticlimatic. They are going to have to be creative and that is going to be exciting!!!
I am really loving this story but I'm going to be bummed when its over! I guess you will just have to think up another story to keep me coming back!

Yeah! Progress is being made. Aragorn and Arwen are out and the others seems to be joining forces. They are not too hopeful, but they are working together and A&A will be bound to be helpful if they have not suffered closed head injuries during their little swim.

*wipes sweat off of forehead* They are alive! That was a tough ride Arwen and Aragorn have suffered, but at least the greater part of Our Favourite Heroes (TM) are united again.

Faramir's brief reflections on the phenomena of the Marius Suenor was just priceless. Took me a sentence or two to get the hint;-)

The chapter left me pondering ways to overcome the protection of the Protected Place. As far as I understand the whole situation, one of the elements has to be cut off. Will they dam the river that leads to Henneth Annün? I mean, they seemed to have ended up just in the right place to do just that.

As for you attempt at blackmail: that is so EVIL! Fortunately, my next chapter is already written, just needs a final bit of tweaking, so it should be ready to post within the next few days (that would make for less than two months time between updates for me!). And I intend to post my story here as well, so no need to bother with the Evil Empire at ff.net. That said, you better write that next chapter ...
