I'll happily feed your muse.
I liked the "mechanism" of Aragorn's application of elven healing. Your descriptions of this rang very true for me, but I am admitting my own biases here. And this "...whirling like a fallen leaf into a vortex as black as Morgoth's heart." Wonderful! The lingering phantasm in Aragorn's memory is a good touch of foreshadowing, too.
I adore your Halbarad and Aragorn, and even in the midst of peril, the lightness of their banter and long friendship w/ one another are apparent. I'm thrilled to see Daeron redeemed, of course.
And Drauchir? What an excellent bad guy! Very inspired.
As always, your descriptions of the landscape make it a character in itself.

Hey, G.A. -
Great to see this updated again! You keep the tension and suspense up, and maintain (and develop!) the relationships among the characters.
As it turns out, I really like Daeron. Beleg / Drauchir is great, too, in a very scary and creepy way.
The healing scene is well-thought out and tense and a bit puzzling for us and for A.--excellent!
Also like this nod to the books:
"Well, you can laugh, but I can't. You are white as a ghost."
"A poor choice of words." Aragorn frowned. "Don't say such things."
Again, very good! Hope the Muse sticks around for more of the same!

I'll echo the previous comments - another great entry in The Sword of Elendil. I like how Aragon's confidence is tested in this chapter, and the opportunity you've created to develop him further. Awesome story!

Six more chapters?? Darn... I would hate to see this story end.
Long cliffhangers regardless, it always pleases me to see updates!
Hope Rodnor does not succumb to this phantom sorcery.

I can see, in this story, Aragorn developing into the sort of man who will become a great leader of Middle Earth. This is a wonderful story. I see RS's comment re six more chapters, while that sounds great I will hate to see this story end. Looking forward to more Aragorn / Arwen and Gandalf.
Keep up the great work. Can't wait for more. Am re reading my favorite bits while I wait.

A nasty wight, this one. I hope Aragorn got him out of there!
