"Last one through's a Tark!" And they just committed that last little offense that confirms that they are all dead meat! Heh! Love this one. "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature"--or to cut any more trees or branches within Fangorn. Naughty, naughty! Heh! Author Reply: This was the first of these ficlets and probably the most fun to write. Poor orcs! | |

"just trees"? Ah, yes, certainly, certainly... Author Reply: Yes, I do think this was a missed opportunity in the movies. Show: Theoden riding through Rohan to get to Minas Tirith. Cut to Orcs charging across the Wold to intercept them. Dramatic music as it looks like the orcs will 'cut them off at the pass'. Release of tension as lead orc gets tapped on the shoulder by irate Treebeard... Perhaps it will be there in the extended-extended edition. | |

Like, who would ever worry about a nice quiet forest. Trees are good for nothing but firewood anyhow. Very good characterisation of the soon-to-be-dead Orcs. Author Reply: Raksha, Yes, its quite worrying how much i enjoy writing orc dialogue..... | |
