| I can't believe I am actually feeling sorry for the Witch King. And he does have a point - elves are arrogant. | |

| I love what Ariashal did to her grotto - I am a gardener and love to landscape so I fully understand what she was doing, what it meant to her in recovering a memory and seeking to share it with her family. I must admit to both being at a loss and admiring her for wanting to meet the other Nazgul. I would not wish to meet them, but if I try to put myself in her shoes, I understand that because she loves her husband she wishes to know more of his life. I think of the fear they caused in others, but I have to remind myself these are different times than what we see at the end of the third age. The comments about Gil-Galad's reaction really made me think. Could they know the Witch-king was sincere? How do they know when he is under Sauron's control? I enjoy stories that make me think of both sides of a story. Thanks, very good and thought provoking again! Author Reply: Thank you again...I am a lousy gardener; I have a black thumb. I'm wanted for murder all over the plant kingdom! :-D Ariashal has met them once before--they were at the wedding. But this time, of course, the situation will be more personal. She does want to know as much about him as she can, and they are irretrievably bound up with him. Gil-Galad and the others assumed that their guest was not sincere. Besides, they have a lot to answer for over those rings--they *could* have destroyed them, after all. And they don't like reminders of their failings coming to visit. | |
