Yes! I've been slowly uploading a story a day to SWG from my other accounts, and of the stories about the Bór I've written five in total, and have ideas and inspiration for more. The next one in the series does involve Kreka's family reaching the Isle of Balar, meeting some of the Host of the Valar on the way, and the fifth is a small piece of a much larger narrative about the overall War of Wrath.

Falling down , yes, this story made it clear to me, to which levels the two remaining Feanorians descended finally.

The thralls, not to be trusted, maybe half twisted into orcs, the men' s outlaws, the last followers.

But, sorry, I have some pity left to give, but I understand Kreka cannot allow herself this  luxury, being the leader of her folks.

Would like to cry over the lost of honour for both..

Desperation and the existence of a large number of outlaws wandering Beleriand gave me a possibly answer for who, aside from fanatically loyal servants, would still be following the Fëanorians after their repeated sacks of other elven (and mortal) settlements. Nobody decent would accept them, so they band together. The quote about how Morgoth considered the Oath and Kinslayers never a threat and always an aid to him, even if they didn't always realize it - blind or just too far fallen to admit how fallen and trapped by pride and Oath and terrible past choices- sums up my approach to them with pity (never sympathy) that mixes in with all the disgust. But yes, that Kreka and her people are better off for finally cutting their ties.

Hello, I am strucked by the answers to my little poor reviews! 

 

There are two reasons for me, to review, once, to honor the author of a ( in my opinion) good story, and, I am always curious about getting the right message.

 

Okay, on this platform there aren't REALLY much of my reviews, but I just started reading for about a year, and there are other communities and sides I am watching ( and reading).

 

But seldom received an answer so promptly, extensive and kind, if I get one at all!

 

I feel honoured...
