| The Cursed Queen of Angmar by khazar-khum | 1 Review(s) |

| I am begining to have a sneaking suspicion that Ariashal dies a terrible death....that she doesn't make it to old age, doesn't die with the Witch-King at her side, peaceful. She is his achilles heel - a way for Sauron to hurt him. These two chapters were intense and horrifying, even in the retelling, and I dread to think of what could be in store. If I were Ariashal, I would be afraid to leave the castle. Nice building of suspense... Author Reply: Ariashal has one thing going for her: she has so far managed to manipulate me into making this way longer than I had planned! Sauron is still weak, which also helps her cause. This last section really worried me; I didn't want to make it into pure horror. I am a firm believer that your imagination is worse than reality. But no one should be under the illusion that Sauron is a nice guy, and no one should believe that he treats his captives with anything even remotely resembling compassion. | |
