Drummer  by Lady Bluejay 61 Review(s)

Great chapter! I'm glad there are people around Amrothros to tell him that he needs to give Devoran some time - both to grieve and to recover from her ordeal. Let alone just adjusting to such a lifestyle. It would be hard for anyone to just suddenly have all of your needs taken care of like that, and I can definitely see wanting to pay for her own wedding dress. Nicely done and I'm looking forward to the next installment.

Author Reply: Luckily Col was worth a lot so her wedding dress will be scrumptious! Thanks for reviewing.LBJ

I'm really enjoying this story, Devoran is a very well written character and after the ordeal she's been through it's nice to see that she has a good shot at being happy. Your writing of the House of Dol Amroth is as always excellent, the family and political relationships are very enjoyable, Amrothos in particular is a good like-able rogue.

However I must point out that the House of Dol Amroth is not 'royal' at all. The term royal would be exclusively reserved for Princes of the Royal blood namely children of the King, which Imrahil's line is not related to (although perhaps very distantly through marriage). They are a noble family which has been given a Princely title as a reward for services to Gondor, much like Faramir. They cannot be considered to be royal princes.

Author Reply: Glad you like my characters - I am getting rather fond of them. You are right about the -royal-, of course. It must be because there are so many princes dotted around Europe all related to some king or other. But I have changed it. Thanks for reviewing. LBJ

erm, is it safe to breathe yet?

Author Reply: I think you can breathe. But poor Devoran is a little overwhelmed by events.LBJ

YAY! They are finally together. :) I knew they would be, but it's nice to see them make it. Interesting little tidbit about the healer... I'd forgotten about her. I've enjoyed this very much and I'm glad that you're going to show us the wedding and everything! :)

Author Reply: I brought in the healer to link the stories - and that's all I saying. LBJ

Beautiful, just beautiful,I am floating on air! LOL! the only thing that would make me happier is if that old sod Alhael is made to give back her father's home to her. Hugs The Imp

Author Reply: Keep your fingers crossed for that one- it depends on Aragorn.LBJ

I feel a bit sad when I read that this will be over soon. I loved having the spotlight on Amroth. Will you be writing one about Erchi as well? Guleth and her son are a pleasant surprise. Will Lothiriel & Eomer discover their existence?

Author Reply: Erchi will get a mention in Part Three, but I am not giving anything else away. LBJ

Thank goodness Amroth arrived in time. Hope he and Devoran get to rekindle their relationship.

Oh poor Devoran. The dispensing of instant justice is right, I think, in these times and places, and the princes would have enough authority to do it - although perhaps with a little more of a hearing under normal circumstances.

I do hope that Drummer survives - he is a true hero!

Author Reply: I think instant justice in those circumstances were justified. As for Drummer, well - I am very fond of dogs. Thanks a lot for your review. LBJ

Just in time! those princes are priceless...a little bit shocking the way that they serve Justice, but it was they way to do it in old times, well it happens even now. Well, devoran is now reunited with Amroth, he is still so uncertain..poor Drummer...

Author Reply: I am sure they were justified. Poor Amroth indeed. Thanks a lot for your review LBJ

Now you know you are supposed to have a chapter ready after a cliffy like that...evilcliffhangerlady

Author Reply: I have to be allowed the odd cliffy - I don't do them often. Next chapter soon.

Thanks for reviewing. LBJ
