This may be the calm before the storm but it was a calm with big thunderclouds in the sky. The story about the prince was amusing. And I still feel badly about Bereth.

Author Reply: I'm glad you liked the story. It was mostly 'true' but they each had different recollections of what happened! Poor Bereth. There's more angst to come on his part, even though he's well out of it.

Jay - are you going to torture them all the way home? Bereth dead, Elrohir lost and injured; now Elladan too? Is this some new poison?

And can we trust you to leave poor Legolas alone? I thought not.... *grin* I can however they return to Imladris in all due haste and Glorfindel rides out to meet them. No one messes with the balrog-slayer.

Author Reply: There won't be *that* much torture on the way home (After they get home, that's a different matter ...) Lots of angst to come, but not much Glorfindel. Sorry :(

oh dear. :-(
I should have known something bad would happen just by the chapter title.

But before I wail about the bad, evil, worrying thing you've done to Elladan, I should talk about the good parts of the chapter. I hope that the outlaws our threesome killed were the same ones terrorizing Withypool. I like the people of that little village and want them to be left in peace. Yay that the extra horses got to stay with Dacy and her family! I liked the embellished bprince and princess story. Especially Elrohir's uncertainty (confusion??) as to whether or not "Princess" Arwen was beautiful. Just like a brother. LOL Loved Legolas' explanation as to why he felt he needed to protect her. Finally, Elrohir's reason as to why he didn't tell Dacy who the prince in the story was a gem. how could I shatter Dacy’s illusions? – that the wonderful prince in her story was just you, when you had just been fetching water from the well! "Just you" -- that still makes me laugh.

And now for that ending ..... *makes an angry face* >>:(

Here you go, setting us up for something bad still to happen to Elrohir ... and you turn the tables and partially paralyze Elladan! Bad author, bad, bad author! Bad ... mean ... wicked author. I wasn't expecting that.

I hope you can update soon. I wanna know what happens!

Author Reply: I'm really glad that everyone liked the bedtime story - I wasn't sure about including it, as this story is mostly angst, and this was just a bit of fun. As to what's going to happen to the twins, you'll have to wait and see ...
