The Touch of Sight  by LAXgirl 6 Review(s)

I'm a horrible, horrible lurker.

I love this story. It's excellent, well written, and the chapters are long.

I'm terrible at reviewing.

I did recognize the name of the tavern, and I kept expecting someone to mention the first murder...but no one did. Oh well, at least we're finally getting to the part that has me checking daily for updates!

Just wanted to encourage you.

Author Reply: Aha! You're one of *them*. Forgiveness is given though since you have finally come out of hiding. ^_^ Tough I wrote in the tavern's name as an extra little tie in, I didn't want to make a huge point out of it. Only kind of a nod to the previous events and murders that have happened, but not as anything blatant that would be something of a "forewarning" of future events for our favorite elven prince. Anyway, thanks for the review and hope you like future chapters! Signing out -LAXgirl

Another good chapter. I'm so glad to see Legolas up and about again. He still has a long way to go, and his legs are still obviously very weak, but at least he can move around.

I have one criticism - you use 'common' when I think you mean Gimli to say 'come on' to Legolas.

Author Reply: Yes, Legolas' recovery is going to take awhile, but as you said, as least he's walking now. And thanks for pointing that out. I was going more for a slang kind of slur of the two words like "Com'on", or something to that extent... Anyway, thanks for the review! Signing out -LAXgirl

What a great way for ending the chapter... So the tavern their in now is the tavern where the first girl worked at?

I remembered!
I'm so glad to see Legolas up and about again!
Theomir is a real wee darling...is the new baby going to make an appearance at all?
You mean this wasn't the real plot? *looks confused* But I liked it ;)
Thank you for updating so frequently—how DO you do it?!?

Elerrína (who likes cute babies!)

Author Reply: Two brownie points for you too for remembering! And yes, you gotta love little Theomir. I kinda felt he needed at least one more cameo appearance. The new baby may or may not be showing up, but you're just going to have to wait for future chapters just like everybody else! ^_^ And in answer to your last question, I can update so fast is because I had all the chapters already written because I'm an author on fanfiction.net and decided to also post my writing here at storiesofarda. If you are interested, I have two other LOTR storie under my ff.net name (same as here, LAXgirl) that you can check out. Well, thanks for reading! Signing out -LAXgirl

I haven't actually read the last two chapters, but the rest have been rather interesting and I've enjoyed having something to break up the monotony of studying for horrible exams. Yikes, I should be doing that right now. Anyway, keep up the good work.

Author Reply: Exams? Studying? Yes, yes, I can understand completely. I just finished finals week and seriously fanfiction was the only thing that saved my sanity from the monotony of studying as you so elloquently put it! ^_^ Hope you get to read other chapters soon, and don't study too hard! lol Thanks for the review!

Yay! Legolas is mobile again! I am glad Gimli's cane came in useful.:) Umm, I have to confess though, the name of the Golden Goblet did sound familiar, but I am afraid I am getting the murder part of this story mixed up with another one...:/ I will have to go back and read chapter 3 again.:)Another great chapter! I can't wait for the next one!:)
Namarië,

Author Reply: The name of the Golden Goblet really isn't that important, but I thought it would be a nice tie in. Check chapter "Chronicle of Years" in the part with the first girl's murder if you want to find out. Thanks for reading and for the review! Signing out -LAXgirl
