Awwwww. The poor thing. I like to believe that some of the Oliphaunts survived, or there were more back in their homelands. They didn't have a choice. It makes sense that the great animals were taken from mothers in infancy to be trained, before they grew too large to train, to be taught to obey the puny humans. Well written. | |

A sad ending for a mighty and majestic beast. | |

Poor creature. It is bad enough that Men seek to kill each other but worse still when they involve animals. This was very moving - the thought of the mumak dying so far away from the land of her birth, and having a shroud spun by the spiders. A sad fate for a poor innocent. | |

Moving, indeed. Animals have always been part of the lives of men. And as often as not unappreciated and mistreated. Well done! | |

Animals are, without a doubt, among the most tragic casualties of war. Your portrait of this poor Mumak is as moving as the one Sam imagines for the slain Haradrim in Ithilien. | |
