possible plagiarist!
I cannot believe there is a person posting chapter after chapter of a story somewhat shortened and rewritten but obviously is Quiseyes's story 'Saraband'. It's so obvious. I'm sure it's only due to the fact that Quis left the LotR scene so suddenly a few years back and yanking her stories off the web, that this melaminhaldir is able to pull it off. Where did they get Quis' story? Bizarre!
Excerpt from melaminhaldir story:
"There was a small package waiting for him when he arrived home in Auckland.
He unwrapped a small velvet pouch inside which was a sterling silver fish on a chain. The eye was a single sapphire.
On the back, engraved in tiny writing, were the words: You set me free. Love & gratitude always. EJW.
It wasn’t the sort of thing he’d normally wear, but he suspected it hadn’t been given to him with the intention that it be worn.
It was a symbolic gift, nothing more.
Just as well really. He’d feel like a bit of a fraud. After all, he couldn’t even free himself."

Hmmmmmmmmmm............. the only thing that would make this kosher is if this person is Quis.... I think we would know.
