Elf Academy 3: The Enemy Within  by Fiondil 14 Review(s)

I find myself wondering whether the local television newscasters were warned to be selective about how they referred to the wedding, perhaps the tv stations owners were a bit worried about a national news service picking up the item? I know that when I lived in North Carolina, the main news often picked up snippets of local news. I would be willing to bet that the fact that there were visiting dignitaries from Valinor would cause a bit of alarm and despondency in the White House? It will be interesting to see how you deal with the increasing public profiles the Elves are beginning to get and how a wider audience and authorities would deal with the idea.

Author Reply: I suspect that the Maiar watching over Wiseman are making sure that the national news services are not picking up local items. Besides, Wiseman is so far off the map that no one really knows it exists except the locals. At any rate, as Vorondur points out, the station editor obviously decided to treat the affair as any wedding would have been. Thanks for reviewing, Shemyaza. I appreciate it very much.

oh thank God it was only a news report, here was me worrying my week away thinking someone had gotten another bright idea with some highly explosive materials. Silly silly. Looks like Turgon is enjoying another sulk. I hope he shakes it before they all shove off, it would be a shame for him to have missed out during such a lovely "vacation" as this

Author Reply: Sometimes not all cliffhangers are bad, just suspenseful. *grin* Anyway, Turgon and Glorfindel will have their little talk soon enough and that should help. Thanks for reviewing, Sarah. I appreciate it.

Another charming chapter. You did a great job filling us in on the important conversations of daily life. I am glad to know that Zack was at the wedding. I agree with Ron that the wedding reporting was well done, but "interesting." Thanks

Author Reply: Hi UTfrog. I'm glad you found the chapter charming and the reporting on the wedding "interesting". And of course, Zach was at the wedding. He wouldn't have missed it for the world. :) Thanks for reviewing. I appreciate it.

"This is better than my brother's palantiri!" Well, that is high praise for mortal technology ;) Will, Arafinwë be rousting out his loremasters to reproduce the wonders of the Aftercomers that he saw on his brief visit on a small, backwater town?

I see that the problems between Glorfindel and Turgon have yet to be resolved. Will be interesting to see how that goes.

Great chapter!

Author Reply: Hi Rebecca. We'll have to see what Arafinwë decides with regards to adapting mortal technology, but that won't be until Elf Academy 4. Glorfindel and Turgon will have 'the talk' soon enough, I promise. I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter. Thanks for letting me know. I appreciate it.
