    Whoa. Woa...I.. I ...err... Speachless.
    Thinking... thinking now. Okay. Well done! That cannot have been an easy scene to write! You're right. I am surprised at Gimli, bless his gnobbly Dwarven heart! His last words to Legolas... dang near broke my heart! And Boromir, finally figuring it all out. Good for him.
    But I'm gonna kick Aragorn's ass! That boy needs a good beating!

    I've another question.

    So, Aragorn is the main master while Boromir and Gimli is like assistant or substitute. So, how long can they prolong Legolas's life before he need Aragorn's essence again? Can B & G prolong Legolas's life as long as they want without Aragorn's essence? Say, if Aragorn die in battle, can Legolas not go back to Rivendell at all but continue to survive off the substitute master's essence?

    Hi, I've a few questions I want to ask regarding the story.

    1) U said in the previous chapter that there are 4 people in Rivendell than can save Legolas if Aragorn happened to die in battle. Who are the 4 people. I know Elrond and Glorfindel are 2 of them. Who are the other 2? I seem to get the impression from the chapters near the beginning that Erestor and the Twins also have the ability to relieve Legolas's suffering, but this will be 5 people already.

    2) What is the status/bond of these 4 people to Legolas? Are their bond/status the same type as Boromir, Gimli, Halbarad and Onogdir, the extended connection? If it's different from the bonds of B, G, H and O, what is the difference between their bond with Legolas and Aragorn's bond with Legolas?

    3) Is the extended bond temporary or permenant? Can Aragorn remove the bond later? Does Halbarad and Onogdir still have the power to relieve Legolas's suffering and extend his life?

    Comment:

    The earlier chapters move a bit too slow for me, but the pace pick up in the later chapters. I think your story is very well thought out. Unlike some other similar type fanfic who give some lame, illogical reason on why Legolas is being abused, u actually make the efford to create a believable backstory with great attention to details. The only other victim-legolas fanfic I've read that did this is Feud.

    The part I like the most in this particular chapter is Gimli's development. I like his compassion towards Legolas and his promise to Legolas that he won't take him again unless it's really necessary or Legolas truly wants it. I hope Legolas end up with Gimli, become friends and lovers and go travelling together like in the book (of course, in the book, they are only friends :p).

    I hate to nitpick (well, actually, I *love* to nitpick), but on a second reading, I do have a question.

    Why would Aragorn be dragging along either of the harbal spell components on this quest? He would never use an aphrodisiac, and it seems like he also wasn't planning on extending the spell. (Or was he? And if so, with whom, and when? He certainly seemed unhappy enough with Boromir about it.)

    If these were just generic herbs combined in a special way, I suppose I would understand; Aragorn would be dragging them along anyway, for healing purposes. But the herbs seemed to be awfully specific, especially the poison one. Why carry around the extra weight if you don't need it?

    Wow.

    And....wow.

    First of all, I was pleased that the extension of the spell was, indeed, logically done. Kudos there.

    I was amazed at the bit about how Aragorn would be bound to desire Legolas' fear, pain, submission, and so on. That was a *very* logical explanation for Aragorn's sadism - and you got to blame it on Elrond, too! More kudos for explaining OOC Aragorn. (Of course, it looks like things are going to be even worse from here on in, in that regard. What in Middle Earth was Aragorn *thinking* of?! How can he possibly justify that?! *wants to swat him*)

    You surprised me a bit with Boromir, and even more so with Gimli. Your gang-rape warning sounded very dire, but neither of them fell on Legolas like a ravening Warg. I was especially worried about Gimli (because he had been so outright *nasty*) and was imagining all sorts of hideous things, so I am rather bemused that it all went rather differently than I expected.

    Finally, before the chapter was posted, I was thinking about how Legolas should logically respond - both before and after the ordeal. I have to say that I think that you hit it right on. Shame and humiliation beforehand, despairing heartbroken weeping afterward. It really should not (and did not) matter that he was already sexually enslaved and abused for 80 years - to have to go through it all over again, for an adan who thought of him only as a toy, and a dwarf who (or so he perceived) only wanted to hurt and humilate him, really would have been Just Too Much.

    And it was gratifying that Aragorn was tender with him about it.

    Well done.

    Wow, its very interesting. Keep up the good work - it's stories like this that one really wants to know the end but never wants to run out of story to read - does that make sense or is it just me?

    Well worth the wait!
    Poor Legolas. I wouldn't particularly like the idea of Gimli lording over me, either. But I can see a gentler side to your Boromir. I think he'll be at least a bit considerate. Ooooooooh! Can't wait!

    What a difficult chapter this was for Legolas, with even worse to come!

    Gandalf must have been blind, or else deliberately obtuse, not to recognize that Legolas must have been bound to Aragorn by the spell. It was annoying that he did not confirm Legolas' royalty, especially in light of Boromir's disdain for Legolas as a *whore*. But at least he tried to argue Boromir out of his proposal.

    Boromir and Gimli - grrrrrr. To some extent Boromir is understandable - there's his pride, and his previous salacious interest in Legolas, and he *does* have a point about extending the spell. Gimli though (and what a disagreeable dwarf he has been!) is getting more loathsome by the moment. I can't help but think that Legolas is correct to fear him. What a horror it is going to be to have to submit to him! And what an awful thing, that the spell prevents Legolas from dying of shame or grief.

    Good on the hobbits, though. I was worried for a moment there about Merry and Pippin, but was glad to see that they would welcome Legolas in a *friendly* romp, but not in a coerced sharing.

    I am curious as to exactly how Aragorn is going to go about "extending" the spell. It has to be something different from the first application of the spell, otherwise it would seem that you would effectively end up with the victim bound simultaneously and orthogonally to every master - and *needing* to be taken by *every* master to satisfy the spells. So there has to be some some subtle tweaking of the spell to fool it into accepting another as an equivalent... perhaps it is done by the mingling of seed (of the old master and the new)? (Not that it is immediately relevant, but that makes me wonder how this spell works when the "master" is a woman. IMO, it is almost a sure bet that a corrupted Galadriel would be a dominatrix Galadriel. Bad as Legolas' lot is, his brother(s) - presumably in Lorien - could have it a whole lot worse.)

    No, this upcoming scene is going to be horrible for Legolas, no doubt about it. Not that the days following are going to be much better - at least until Boromir and Gimli have some reason to learn a little respect and compassion. In the meantime, I can see them arguing over whose "turn" it is, or, in the high emotions immediately after a battle, both demanding to take Legolas! It is going to be awful. Elrond would be pleased.

    I cannot believe Aragorn is giving in like that to Boromir; that's awful! I feel so bad for Legolas!!
    Wonderfully written scene between the Fellowship and Aragorn. Mithrandir isn't letting him off the
    hook, which is nice to see. I can't wait to see what happens next!!

    I had being waiting for this chapter and the upcoming one so impatiently!

    I hope that the fellowship will support Legolas and i think that Gandalf will be a great assesst in that respect.

    Anyway i was wondering and i thought what if the fellowship agree that Legolas needs to be with someone to fullfill the needs of the spell but do not let Estel touch him due to his abusive nature. Could Boromir sleeping with Legolas satisfiy the spell while he could be gentle with Legolas?

    Anyway that is my theory on why legolas is paired with others in the summary.
