Great chapter, Tarannon is out of prison like room, and can enjoy life, voices and the sky and such. I liked his confussion on who was in charge. | |

So the reparations are begun and well begun. Loved this one Clever Hobbit and looking forward to the rest of it before I re-read it in its entirety. | |

I have really enjoyed this story all the way through. It's a unique "what if" scenario that I found myself wondering about while watching ROTK a few times as well...:-) | |

And she has her first meeting with a Hobbit, and gets her dress wet with tears. A worthy healer indeed is Miriel. | |

I just discovered this story and am now eagerly waiting for the next installment. An original idea for a story--it never occurred to me to wonder about the fate of those hapless beacon guards in the movie. Tolkien's characters are well-written, and I like Tarannon and the other original characters (well, except for Castamir, but he met his just desserts). Good for the healers to treat an injured man regardless of his perceived crimes. (And, no, I don't think the military authorities would try to take him from the Houses by force; soldiers are too often in the care of the healers themselves to want to incur their ire!) But poor Tarannon trying to cut away his hand and the offending mark! I liked the scene with Gandalf a great deal--how the grass felt so blessed to Tarannon after a month in confinement, and how Gandalf offered an apology and an explanation for his oversight. Exciting and well-written story! More soon, please! Author Reply: I don't think *any* military authority would storm a hospital like that- imagine what angry doctors could do! :) Thanks very much for your review! | |

This is a good chapter. I don't think the Gandalf you have depicted here is "defeated", though I can understand how some would think that of movie-verse Gandalf sometimes. He is troubled, for he was unwittingly the cause of someone suffering an injustice--but he is compassionate as well. I like the way you showed Tarannon so eager for sight of the sky, and of having a window--very realistic. And Pippin was very well portrayed! Author Reply: Yeah, I knew "defeated" wasn't exactly what I was looking for... I just couldn't think of how to say it at the time. Thanks for reviewing! | |

I love this story so much! Your characterization is extremely good for the movie version Gandalf; so don't worry about that. Please update soon. I get just so exicted every time that you do! Author Reply: Thanks. I was rather worried about how he would turn out. I'm glad he's okay. I should update sometime next month, depending on how school treats me. :) | |

Poor Tarannon, none of this is his fault. Just hang in there, till Pippin can get ahold of Gandalf and Aragorn. | |

You've no idea how lovely it is to see an update of this! I really look forward to seeing the reactions of Aragorn and Gandalf when they discover what Denethor did so unjustly. And Faramir will be horrified! I do hope you update soon! | |
