It sounds so thrilling. Love the POV. :)

Author Reply: Thank you. Oooooh, those nasty wraithses.

Great to have a new story from you and what a clever plot idea!

Poor Aragorn to be the target of the Morgul spell.

Author Reply: Thank you, Linda. I've been trying to get this story off the ground for *ever* so long.

Hi ShireBound
Interesting premise, let's hope somebody in Imlardris knows what could have happened and is able to drive out the Nazgul who is hunkered down in Aragorns mind.

Huggs,
Lynda

Author Reply: Let's hope so! Thank you for reading, Lynda, and for brainstorming with me about this story.

Wow! That was a very clever, evil, idea. I can only imagine how much trouble this is likely to cause before the secret is revealed. This is a very exciting beginning indeed. I look forward to more.

Author Reply: Thank you so much. It's challenging to come up with new ideas after so many years. Glad you're enjoying it so far!

Ooh! How cool! A new Shirebound story, another AU! This one sounds both exciting and intriguing! I am looking forward to more!

Author Reply: Thank you, my friend. I'm excited too! It's been far too long since I started a new story. *excited bounces*

WOOT! I saw this while doing my usual Saturday SOA check and wow---I was shocked to see it and so pleasantly surprised!

I've been looking forward to this for a very long time, and it's wonderful to see it not only for the story itself, but well, it's just very exciting to have a new Shirebound story!

This really is a brilliant idea here. I love it when authors take small, seemingly insignificant statements out of the books and turn them into stories and "what might have beens." Because of course Glorfindel would not have given Aragorn such a warning unless there was, indeed, a danger.

This was a very chilling first chapter... just perfect. It certainly shows us how evil the wraiths were, and of course, a bit more of their sorcery---we don't see too much of that in the books and I'm positive the wraiths were capable of some very terrible, terrible things.

Oh, I'm so looking forward to more! You can't imagine.

Author Reply: Lily, you know how long I've been dying to start this story! I just have to take it slow and easy. I'm excited to finally post the beginning, and dive back into all the notes I've scribbled.

Bless the Professor for all the details he gave us to play with. I always thought he meant to get back to that hilt, but (thankfully) never did.

Yays and wheeees. :)

Oh yikes, major major yikes!!! What a great idea for a story and a great start to the story itself. Very chilling! So glad you're writing again. :)

Author Reply: I'm so glad, too! It's wonderful to be diving back into writing *finally*. Aragorn h/c, yay.

AndreaReviewed Chapter: 1 on 11/5/2011
Wow! What a beginning!

Of course we all know that someone will use the Black Speech (Gandalf) and that Elrond will be very angry about him doing so. But to think that it could be the "trigger" of Dark Magic! Oh my!

On the other hand ... this IS a Shirebound Story :-) (Or have you changed your attitude?)

Author Reply: Andrea, you KNOW this is a Shirebound Story. No fear on that count! :)

I'm glad you like this beginning. It's so wonderful to be writing again.

MirachReviewed Chapter: 1 on 11/5/2011
Oh my, and Gandalf is going to use the Black Speech at Elrond's council! This is a really intriguing start of a story, I'm looking forwards to the h/c!

Author Reply: Thank you so much. Quick, someone warn Gandalf to keep quiet with all that Black Speech!
