Sundry Scrolls  by Raksha The Demon 5 Review(s)
Little DwarfReviewed Chapter: 3 on 6/29/2008
Very beautiful! So beautifully written (and... Tolkienesque, I would say!) pieces about Galadriel and Celeborn are rare to find! :)

Author Reply: I usually don't have much desire to write Galadriel; but I do find her marriage to Celeborn intriguing; and she was more interesting a character in the times before LOTR...

Thank you for reading and reviewing.

Ah! I loved Chapter 3. So many times, you see Galadriel depicted as a frigid bitch, or Celeborn as weak next to her. But this was simple and clever, and gave their marriage an entirely different spin. Loved it.

Author Reply: I would never think of Galadriel as frigid!

Oh, I'm glad you liked the drabble; I've never tackled Elven sexuality before; and I certainly was a bit wary in choosing that famous couple!

Thanx for reviewing, Chibi-Kaz!

She certainly did that. I think he may have spent the next couple of millennia wondering precisely where he went wrong.

Author Reply: Yes, well, Galadriel wasn't exactly 'the little woman' type. They seemed to regard each other fondly enough in FOTR, and have mutual respect; and Celeborn seemed to be quite happy with his Noldor warrior-princess. I still want to know why Celeborn didn't leave M-e with Galadriel...

Yes, indeed, they have managed to conquer one another.

Lovely images here.

Author Reply: Glad you liked the piece, Larner. I was a bit nervous about writing it - elven conjugal rites andGaladriel - I felt somewhat out of my league. Still, it was something of an irresistible challenge...

I would imagine Galadriel would take some conquering !It must have been truly a night to remember! This is naughty but nice and you capture the wedding night well.

Author Reply: Thanx for the review. It would take a very wise, and skilful bridegroom, to both tame and excite the mighty Nerwen-Artanis-Galadriel...
