| Aragorn going off at two in the morning, supposingly "saving a brother and sister?" Ahhhhhhhhhhh where is he? And Faramir's dream about Aragorn calling out to him for help is true, I think, or rather, I'm having a really certain feeling about it. The thought bond has made him something like an empath...that sort of thing. And though I really want to read ahead on your other website, I lack the time. Alas, time passes by too quickly. Thankfully, I read the other prologue on the other site, and so I am sure that this time Aragorn's plead for help is probably the fever. His fever starts NOW. This will also be where the suspense starts, or as my English teacher likes to call it, the "climatic moment". Suspense is in the air...I can smell it. =| -Lady Saruman Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. Yes, Aragorn and Faramir are empathic with each other so Faramir's dream is significant.I have taken your suggestion and afded the prologue here too.His fever is not the flu type virus sweeping Gondor.I hope you will get a slightly more polished version by reading on this site. | |

| Where is he? What did you do to him? You mean, cruel, author you! :) Poor Faramir for not knowing where he is and of course poor Aragorn for whatever is happening to him. I felt bad that Aragorn was running himself down so much that now he has no strength to fight off whatever has happened to him. Of course, now Faramir is going to feel guilty... sigh. Maybe he is just lost in the city? :) Nicely done! Author Reply: Yes,I am very cruel to my poor characters I fear and this story is a real roller coaster! You are right that Aragorn has no strength to fight and poor Faramir is is for a very rough time.Many thanks for your much appreciated review. | |

| Aragorn has taken his eye off the ball here. Bad move, even if understandable. It enabled the Lords of Misrule to get their hands on him when his attention was elsewhere. And Faramir is suffering from phantom pain that I feel might have something to do with foreshadowing. It's going to get worse before it gets better! I'm only glad I've read ahead! Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I am honoured you are reading this again if you read it before and hope this version will be a little more polished. I think poor Aragorn believed Gondor was relatively safe after so manyyears hiding from Sauron on his travels.Not that that he could easily he harmed if he were not so drained from prolonged healing.It certainly will get much worse ! | |

| Faramir really should have appointed some Rangers to shadow Aragorn on those trips to and from the Houses of Healing, since Aragorn wouldn't allow guards. Aragorn's not returning after all that time seems very, very ominous, not to mention Faramir's feeling pain for no reason. Note To Faramir: Invent Secret Service for Aragorn. Note To Aragorn: A collar with cat bells wouldn't hurt, big guy. Note To healers at Houses of Healing: Should've given the King drugged wine to give him a nice long sleep nap in a private room nstead of allowing him to go off alone and tired at two in the morning. Note To Gondor: Trouble Ahead! Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I just love your lists,they always make me laugh while being full of sound advice for our heroes.I think FAramir might well take your advice, a good idea for a future story,maybe ?Or perhaps one of my cats should lend him a bell? | |
