This chapter brought tears to my eyes. I'm sure that isn't a typical response, but then I am pretty sensitive to good stuff like this. The light rages on against the darkness "though the darkness comprehends it not." Beautiful! | |

Again... this is so beautiful and so moving... and better than anything I could ever write or will ever write in the future... If anyone should ask me of my favourite fanfiction ever... this is it. And will ever be. Author Reply: (blushing) Thank you, Cuthalion! But I will dispute that it's better than anything you could ever write - that, I don't believe. jo | |

wow, either you saved up a bunch to post at once or I've missed a few! well here goes, three chaps in one review... #1) What is it with Canohando and his need to remind Frodo of how easy it would be to kill him? #2) Forget Canohando, be afraid of Yarga! Be very afraid. #3) OMG. I knew there was reason to be afraid! Why did he do it? I mean, I know why, but, WHY?? Author Reply: LOLOL! #1) It's an Orc thing. #2) Very. Very. #3) See #1. It's what orcs do. jo | |

Oh. My. Have I mentioned how much I love Frodo? Well, it bears repeating -- I LOVE Frodo!! I really didn't think that it was possible for me to love him any more, but since reading your story, I have been proved wrong. One of the things I always admired about Frodo (as I think I've already told you) was his pity, and kindness toward Gollum -- and now that pity and kindness is extended toward even orcs! "Canohando! I will not let you die!" Wow.... I nearly got teary-eyed reading that part. And I realized how fond I had become of Canohando, and Lash, as well -- and when Radagast (whom I absolutely adore now!) explained to Frodo the reasoning behind Yarga's actions, I found that I pitied him as well. I am completely in awe of you, Jo. And totally hooked on this story. I can't wait for more! Author Reply: Hi Tathar! Good - because I love Frodo too, and the more I write about him, the more I love him. I'm glad you're getting fond of Canohando & Lash, because so am I - Frodo brings out the best in them, I guess! Glad you're still enjoying this. jo | |

You are such a word-smith, Jo. "bits of hopeful green" and "His lungs were filled with air and not water this night, only because this orc had braved the flood for him." This is a beautiful story. Author Reply: Thank you, shirebound! What a delight to have you pick one of my own favorite phrases to comment on - it's validating or something - jo | |
