The foreshadowing in this is what makes it scary, because we know he will feel it again...but again it will be overcome. Author Reply: Yes, it will indeed be overcome. But it had to feel horrid at the time! | |

Scary! But another thing meant to happen. It would have been scarier if Merry hadn't taken that sniff and been able to warn the others. Namarie, God bless, Antane :) Author Reply: Oh, most certainly! And I think there was even more to it than that: after all, Merry will be the only person to ever help slay a Nazgul. (The others perished at the destruction of the Ring.) I think that this encounter may have been a factor. | |

So proper for Merry. This one expresses what happened to Merry so very well. Author Reply: When I started trying to think of scenes to dribble for this series, this one was the first that came to mind. I'm glad you think I caught it well. | |

The "what is hope?" line really hit me and immediately brought to mind Merry's future experiences with the Nine--"Are you going to bury me?" and such. Which is doubtless what you intended. Author Reply: Yes--you will notice I did work in a line from that part: "a mist of tears and weariness" always struck me as a phrase that so perfectly described his despair. I would have liked to use the "Are you going to bury me?" line as well, but wasa constrained by the dribble format. | |

This is an amazingly chilling piece, Dreamflower! MEWD! Author Reply: "Chilling" was exactly what I was aiming for. Thank you! | |
