| Realistic and plausible, without being too graphic. I liked Legolas' gentleness, and the way he and Gimli worked together to ease Boromir's breathing. | |

| The first arrow removed--now to the others. And poor Faramir--forbidden to assist in the search! Author Reply: Poor Faramir, indeed! I considered letting him go, actually, when I first was writing this -- but that would have changed things so much later on, I can't even begin to think of what would have happened. ;-) | |

| I love poor Boromir's bravado.... no - not too bad - yeah right! I'm dying here - the pain is incredible : ) Oh dear - when the poor man cried, Help me... I thought I'd die... would take a lot to make this Man from Gondor cry for help. It's fun to see Legolas and Gimli just running about obeying Aragorn's orders - at last, Boromir's wounding seems to have 'jolted' the Northerner into leadership! I did wonder about the stick... The fixing of the patch and the aftermath - waiting to see if it worked - was harrowing... for me as well as for Boromir and his friends! Oh my! I loved the arrow quote - mirroring dear Pippin's to Denethor! and the crook of Aragorn's eyebrow as he surveyed the damage Boromir had done... not enough indeed! Well written! I loved Denethor's knowledge of the Horn and all it's different sounds. Oh and poor Faramir - of course he would plan to join the search! GREAT chapter again. Cannot wait for the next installment - I feel like I'm watching the Perils of Pauline or some such - sitting on the edge of my seat. Waiting, always waiting. Author Reply: I think only Aragorn could get Boromir to actually admit he was in pain, because of course, one can't really fool the healer. I think this healing of Boromir really did get Aragorn back on the path of taking leadership; he saw here he was the only one who could make a difference, which applies in other ways as well. Once he realized that, he would see all the possibilities and be free to move forward at last. Thank you for your good review, and even more, for following my tale! | |
