Mum's the Word · 8 April 2005 · Chapter 1: Matters of Ignorance
Thank you, thank you, for sharing with us the "redeeming of Ilberic Brandybuck"! You've done a wonderful job with that aspect of the story, and the encounter with Toby provides not only a touch of humor but a good transition to the last lines. I've wondered since "Believe Me" what happened to that scoundrel. Your dialogue is well done, and you've treated the "simple country-folk" with such dignity. Thank you again, and blessings, Mum
