This conspiracy to darken the reputation of the Khan's sons is interesting. I am glad that Tahir laid it bare, and that Elessar has found a means to limit the boy's treachery. Sending him north into Arnor should widen the young man's horizons immensely.

I'll leave my review for this chapter here, since I left my thoughts for the first chapter on your LJ. :) Very nice ending! I really like the way you've worked out the politics of Harad... I'm with Aragorn in that it makes my head spin. I like how Aragorn neatly sidestepped the boy's attempt to anger him enough to kill him, and his decision to send him north was wise. Very good short story, and thank you for the dedication!

Yes, true reason to be concerned, seeing the worship of Sauron rising again. I would like to know what has inspired this son to do as he has, though. There has to be something he thinks to gain.

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.It would be very alarming to see new signs of Sauron worship.

As I told you before I always like the way you portray Aragorn as a healer, and this story was no exception. I'm also very glad that here you you chose to show us his wiseness here as a king and a political leader.
