I reread this story and noticed enormous burden that killing other Elves made in Thranduil. I can't help thinking what Noldor think about it. It was mentioned that they had hunted eyes almost like orcs. Did it harm their fea and they still must continue because of Oath?

Thranduil's transformation, doubts and reaction to killing of Elves is brilliantly written. What happened to survivors later? Were they found by other scouts?

Author Reply: Don't worry, I intend to finish this one, too! It's hardly started. Thanks for all your great reviews! :)

Love as Thranduil reacted when he killed the other Elf for the first time and emphasis that he just wanted to survive. Oropher was so sure they Wil not meet again but still he allowed him to stay behind. Dior had to be a great king to inspire such loyalty.

The beginning was so peaceful and suddenly the attack happened. It was amazing. I always wondered why scouts didn't warn Dior's people before the attack. Brilliantly described the suspense, confusion and fear. Love your idea of fight between Thranduil and Caranthir. I find interesting that Sindar's weapon was much worse than Noldor.

Shot through the eye. What an image... Poor Thranduil. Poor scout, even. Actually, this story is full of vivid imagery, and as usual your Thranduil is captivating. Have I mentioned that I'm glad you're writing again?

Author Reply: Thank you for this review! So sorry it took me TWO YEARS to say so, but real life ran me over right about that time, and I only just found it again!

Glad to see this continued. You portray the suffering, both of the Sindar in general and Thranduil over being forced to kill an elf, very well. I hope you continue this!
