| Unfortunately, Denethor wasn't "shy" enough in this case. I wonder how many times he looked into it before the Enemy realized and began manipulating which images it would be allowed to present? Author Reply: True:o I think from what I remeber reading Sauron didn't realise it until quite quite some time later that Denethor was using the palantir. Thanks:) | |

| A finely-drawn portrait of Denethor, who Tolkien said "listened to counsel, and then followed his own mind." His confidence in his ability to use this dangerous tool is so like Boromir's confidence that his will can master the Ring. Though Denethor ruled in more desperate times than his forefathers had had to face, and perhaps that is his only excuse. Lovely drabble! Author Reply: Thank you:) I'm delighted you liked the drabble, and that Denethor works. Yes, I guess he was more desperate than his forefathers and certainly very confident and assured in his ability. | |

| Alas,so begins Denethor's downfall.You capture the moment well. Author Reply: Thank you:) I'm glad to hear it works. Yes, the poor man thought he was helping and while it might have helped inititally it certainly also caused the downfall! | |
