| Poor Turin; Labadal might well be right. The kid seems born to sorrow; and his destiny will be great but tragic. And that's not even thinking about the rest of the family. Sob. Good job. Author Reply: I know. Poor baby. It makes me wish that Labadal had been able to go with him when he was sent away-- perhaps having at least one loving person in his life might have helped. | |

| I don't remember your writing Silm stories before; but you should do it more often. This series is lovely and sad; and sheds some light on the evolution of poor Turin. That family almost seems doomed from the start. Author Reply: I never have. This is my very first one, and it is the only time I've had any urge to do so, but there is just something about Child Turin that captures my attention. That family almost seems doomed from the start. They do, don't they? Interesting that much of this part of the story is BEFORE Hurin is captured and cursed by the Enemy... | |

| Dear Dreamflower: This is an intriguing idea for a fic, and Labadal's "voice" in the first chapter sounds convincing to me. I look forward to the next chapter, and I eagerly await seeing what you will do with this. Sincerely, Darkover Author Reply: Thank you very much! My normal oeuvre is Third Age and hobbits. This is my first venture into the territory of the First Age, so it is encouraging to hear that I have the voice right. Every since I first read CoH, I'd been thoroughly taked by this particular section of the story, the only tiny bit of love and brightness in child Turin's life is this lowly servant. I had asked some people for stories about them before, but finally decided if I wanted any, I'd have to write some myself. | |
