Elvenhome  by Soledad 3 Review(s)

Very thoughtful, and typical that that she feels the need to bathe frequently. Now, to learn what Meril did during the Kinslaying.

Author Reply: Yes, I thought that would be typical, after what she's gone through - in either interpretation.

Meril's past will remain hidden for a while yet, but will be revealed eventually.

Poor Meril, it looks like something dreadful has happened to her and that she has seen many dreadful things. The song sounds wonderful, it would have been nice to be there.

Author Reply: She's seen a lot indeed. The First Age wasn't a nice one for those living in Beleriand. It all will be revealed... eventually.

Have I told you how much I love this story? I love your writing style in this particular story (I love your other ones too)…

"washing herself by every chance seemed to become a sheer irresistible urge since last year" great detail that show how she feels, sometimes we forget that she was a captive of orcs, even if Tolkien didn't specified what kind torture she suffered, I assume that the orcs did more than a beating to her.


Author Reply: Thank you. :)
Yeah, that's what I assume, too. But I've left it to the imagination to any readers with intention. Sometimes it's better to say less, don't you think?

Author Reply: Sorry - to the imagination of *my* readers was what I meant. Still too sleepy, it seems. *g*
