Ah, lovely story Skande, albeit sad.  I keep saying this, but I adore your imagery; the way you write is very fluid, and I can just see what's happening, without that overwhelming amount of unnecessary detail. Good work with the battle; battle scenes are tough to write without describing it in twenty pages and boring people to tears. I loved the "cold, detatched warror's haze" line. Way too accurate. Good work with the mental exchange between Aragorn and Legolas. I usually want to shoot people who work solely movie-verse in fanfic, but in this case, the story works so well that I can't say anything. It fills in nicely, and the short, simple, fairly original take on that came off well - I know far too many people who are way too obsessed with Legolas to kill him off. Really interesting - and effective - with the almost excluded aspect of Legolas and Aragorn at the end, as the rest of the army celebrates, and they are left alone. Only thing I could offer would be to put an AU warning, as well as one for character death, somewhere in your rating, simply because people might not be expecting it. Lot less hassle if you do it that way and warn all these people prior to the junk after.  As usual, nice work - your stories are so nice to review, since I almost never have to nitpick too much! ~ Elwen |
