Hi Just to let you know that I much enjoyed this one - Eomer had all my sympathy, as the dialogue came across as somewhat manic at times! You spun it all out very cleverly and very well, without losing my interest along the way. The picture you present of (at least) three doughty warriors taking time out in the midst of a fierce battle to debate semantics was truly funny. I liked looking at A/L/G from Eomer's perspective and it seemed in true keeping with bookverse. Thank you. insignia

You're very welcome, and thank you for the review! I'm glad Eomer had your sympathy. I was trying to stay in a viewpoint that would represent what most of us would have felt when watching that debate, and Eomer volunteered for the task. It wasn't a big challenge to make him pragmatic (he was that already) so it seemed a natural fit. I'm very glad it worked out that way. Thank you for letting me know!
