| I see that Hughes again ate my review before it got posted. This does NOT sound like our Elrond at all. Is he now seeking out the Ring for his own purposes? Okay, now to figure out what is really going on! Author Reply: Elrond is probably going to kill if he finds out about this story. *winces at thought* | |

| I do not think that it is ELrond that Estel is dealing with.. In view of the fact that the person in question seems to be looking for a palantir ... and possibly a ring.. Hummm I have my suspisions.. I am thinking that it may be a shapeshifter of some sort.. and there are very few beings in Middle earth that can do that.. I wonder how long it will be before Estel realizes that it may not be his Ada????? yes very interesting.. (grin) Author Reply: *returns grin* I won't tell you if you're right--it'll give the entire plot away! -Calenlass | |

| Ooh, the thot plickens! _Corma_ is the Quenya word for "ring" and by the laws of linguistic consonant shifts as they apply to Eldarin languages, the Sindarin form would probably be *_corf_. Allowing for soft mutation of the word after the definite article, the title of the book would then be "I Gorf Min Pennas". Admittedly, *_corf_ is unattested, but most Tolkien linguistic scholars would probably allow it as neo-Sindarin. Author Reply: Thank you very much. When I get a chance I'll correct that... -Calenlass | |
