What a wonderful start to a promising new story! I've always had a soft spot for Old Rory, one of the few names on the family tree that actually had a couple of lines to speak in canon. I think he would have been a splendid Master, and a loving father and grandfather. I don't care much for stories that show him as tyrannical or senile. I love the details you have put into the Master's study. That is one of the things that I love in your stories, the way you lovingly describe the rooms of Brandy Hall, whether Merry's room or Pippin's or now the Master's study. I could just *see* everything, and even almost smell the smells you describe. A very good start and I look forward to updates! Author Reply: Oh, thank you! I like exploring details, so I'm happy it worked I like Rory too, and I agree, I don't see him as that either. Ever since my first story have I wanted to describe the Master's study. My first story starts with Merry sitting in that window seat and even if this takes place 14 years later it is sort of tying those stories together. | |

Great beginning. I love the detail that you've put into the study. It's nice to have such a clear picture of the room and a feel for what goes on there. I also loved how you could feel the closeness between Merry and his father in this part. I have always loved Saradoc for some reason. I am looking forward to more. Author Reply: Thank you! :D I love Saradoc too and I think he is very much the reason why Merry is as he is. I have actually wanted to desrcibe the study since my very first story, which starts with Merry sitting in that window seat, lol. | |
