in brief
This is more meant for my FF.net readers, but it won't hurt to post it here...
Just a quick meta-post, for anyone still reading.
HOA is my baby and I will see it through to the end.
That end is approaching. Believe it or not, I'm working towards something.
Updates: I'm sorry, I've been really busy and a little uninspired.
Minas Ithil: The one reviewer is correct, Faramir did not rule from Minas Ithil. But it is important to the plot, so please bear with me.
Slash: It is not my intention to use HOA as a gay-rights platform, nor do I intend to insinuate more and more slash themes. Chapter 10 was as bad as it will get, and likely it will be rare.
However, slash is a strong underlying theme. Think of it this way, it's a slash story with all the slashiness edited out.
I am sorry for any readers who are truly bothered by the idea of two men sharing a bed. It happens. Historically, it was very common. Within the context of this story, it is an accepted and unspoken truth that same-sex friends can be bedmates.
Never more than a kiss will be seen on screen. If you can't cope, I can't help you.
The story is set in a universe where Amrothos and Eomer are closer than friends. To pretend that's not so would violate the integrity of the continuity I am building.
To all my loyal readers who have stuck with me through the dry times and the gluts, the aimless chapters and the harrowing cliffhangers, I cannot express enough thanks. More than once, I've gone back to read these reviews to bolster my strength.
I am going to try and push through another couple chapters. I think we have 4 or 5 to go.
Stick with me. It will all be worth it.
