A new one from OSA :
Xenarwen: Poor Arinya, how she must suffer because of those vile accusations. I hope the whole of Rhudaur won't go Elf-hunting! Gimilbeth is finally away - now Cammeth brin can take a breath of air. As for Belzagar, I wish his dream turns true... Please update soon!

How about something like this:
Hi Xenarwen, and thanks for your comments - they're very encouraging and helpful! I write for Arinya, and I wanted to portray that terrible feeling when, out of the blue, you hear accusations that involve you in some way and that you know are wrong, and then watch other people pull away from you because they believe those accusations. And then how wonderful it is when someone stands up for you. Yes, Gimilbeth is leaving, and that will start some events both with her and with those left in Cameth Brin ... hope you enjoy them! -- Rian

Xenarwen:
Thank you, Rian!
Now ... these brigands - I confess I pity the poor wretches! Always listen to your inner voice - it keeps you safe! Isn't Agannalo creepy?! Orsc are also creepy but in another way, more down-to earth so to say. I think I would prefer to meet an orc any time over a nazgul. he-he. Brilliant chapter by the way, scary but we likes it, preciouss...

Title: Chapter 14. Encounters on the Road Reviewer: Formegil Signed
I really am enjoying your story, this far. I still like your characterization and the characters are very interesting for the most part and you have managed to get at least me to take an interest on them (for example, I somehow feel bad for Algeirr, a villain or not). The love-stricken Orc especially was an ingenious invention, it was so completely surprising. I wonder what you have in store for the future, with new characters and all.
To comment upon a little detail, Gere wouldn't have needed a false beard unless she was very young. Tolkien wrote that dwarf-women had beards and voices similar to the men (HoME, War of the Jewels). But well, it's not in the least way preventing me enjoying your story, and I don't think even the worst purist could reproach you.
Anyone wants to reply? Hmm... both Angmar and Serenoli are away...

OK, I have replied: Thank you, Formegil. I also felt sad killing off Algeirr - he was an attractive chap, despite his roughness and roguishness. The lovesick orc is a cutie, indeed, he is one of Angmar's unforgettable characters. Perhaps it was one of the orcs who had a corner in his soul where some traces of initial elvishness of his race yet remained... As for dwarf-women beards, your info is new to me. Thank you for it. I thought it was a grey area. Anyway, Gere is very young still - so she may grow a fine beard of her own later.

I'd like to find out how it ends, too! We just have too many people that can't seem to post anymore
