Sauron does tend to revel in the grief of others, doesn't he? I look forward to your return.

Author Reply: Thank you, I'm back now!

How proud he must have been of them, although he spent them freely enough, I deem.

Author Reply: I don't think he ever imagined that someone could defeat them.

Ah, two worthy women, each of whom was a great lady in her own right, each discerning in her own way, one with the wisdom of age and experience, one still rather callow in her own youth, but as determined as only a strong and somewhat desperate woman could be.

Author Reply: The women of Rohan are really admirable.

Oh, yes, Sauron WOULD latch onto that memory. I do rejoice he had Glorfindel and Elrond as mentors, though.

The most powerful lies are, after all, built upon at least a grain of truth, and Sauron was the master of the skill of building powerful lies.

Author Reply: And a twisted truth is even more powerful than a lie...

Love is a powerful ingredient to add to any cure. I rejoice that he is surrounded by it now as he recovers from his ordeal in the mountains.

Author Reply: Love is the best cure, indeed.

Oh, but dogs will eat the carcass as well, if that is all there is. Sauron doesn't know his animals as well as he thinks, apparently.

I rejoice that Aragorn will fight that image as well.

Author Reply: I don't know where that urban myth orignated, actually... I just remembered it when I wrote about queen Berúthiel.

Yes, that would be among ihs most precious of moments. A golden moment that brought him such joy but her such grief in the end--ere she herself accepted the Gift and joined him yet again.

Author Reply: One of the aces in his sleeve, so to say ;)

Ah--what a gift for the King who's been everywhere! Yes, it's questionable whether he would ever write it all down himself.

Author Reply: Probably not =)

Apparently reaping what he had sowed he found to be surprising. And it is heartening that she cursed him ere the end.

Author Reply: I guess that curse was fulfilled after all.
