Wherever the Prompt Might Lead  by Larner 8 Review(s)
Linda HoylandReviewed Chapter: 22 on 12/30/2008
You capture the hardships at sea very vividly here.

Author Reply: Oh, I'm so glad you think so, Linda! Thank you!

Queen GaladrielReviewed Chapter: 22 on 12/23/2008
Ah! But what happened?

Author Reply: Maybe I'll write the continuation of this story one day--I just haven't done so as yet is all.

Thanks for wanting more!

Ooh, I like this very much ... could be a good start to a bigger story. And a good way to get all those many words in!

Author Reply: Yes, it indeed could be a starter for a much greater story. I'm not certain what ship it is, whether it's Isengar's or someone else's. But it was one image that struck me at the time!

I feel so sorry for the sailors. Storms at sea are never fun.

~ Indy

Author Reply: No fun, perhaps, but in this case perhaps necessary for survival! What appears another hardship yet will drive them to a safe haven!

That sounds like a desperate situation. And to have to endure a storm to be brought back will be hard on these sailors, indeed. Particularly as they don't know Ossë's intent.

Author Reply: Oh, you're so right, Kitty. The storm particularly would be hard on them all--but in this case they need it.

Thank you so, Kitty!

Tough love, indeed! May the storm drive them to safe harbour.

Bottle of peaches! Perhaps Cookie is a long lost relation of Sam's...

Author Reply: I giggled when I included that, remembering the solar calculator and poor Legolas inflicted with dogwood and then cattails! Heh! But with such a list many of these stories are taking place aboard ships now--doesn't give a lot of scope! Heh!

hm,a benevolant(sp) Osse, unusual, he is usually such a pill of a Mair! They only ones to temper his enthusiasims(sp) are Ulmo and his mate Unien!
Nearly there,
Keep them coming,
Lynda
p.s. I can't spell this morning!)

Author Reply: Osse isn't usually known as a particularly kind or benevolent Maia, it's true. But I'm developing a soft spot for him, I find!

Yes--two more! Thank heavens!

Oh dear. That *is* hard. Poor sailors.

Author Reply: Oh, I so agree, Dreamflower. Thanks for the feedback.
