Fluent in Sindarin and Quenya? Hmm... Looks like I have work to do.. ;)
Anyways, a great chapter - better than the last ones I'd say. Very good describing of the chaos (I think people have a tendency to tell what they saw in the movie - and that makes it too organized) when the Sea-beast attacks.
And no, I wouldn't say it's Mary-Sue.. Firstly, she didn't get into the battle. Secondly, she is an independant individual (try saying that fast three times in a row..). Thirdly, she isn't latching on to every member of the fellowship. Fourthly, she didn't get hurt by the creature. So no, not Mary-sue.. Unless "Mary-sue" means "original character".. *glares at those running around with that belief*
Also, as another reviewer mened,ned, then Asca is too damned "screwed up" to be a Mary-Sue... There you have it. Bring us a little more trauma, and I'll personally eat the first person who screams "MARY SUE!!" *bares her dragon-sized fangs*

Mary-Sue is when the female OC is GOD. Asca aint GOD, she's too screwed up ^__^ jk, I love her already. How are you fluent in any el lan languages?? Are you one of those people?? You know, who are people? *shifty eyes* Sorry, sugar-high. Um, yeah. Translations apreciated! Cause now, I GET it... not that I didn't before, but that's not the point. The point is I have no point. *re-reads what she just typed* o_____O Um, yeah, definite sugar-high. I will wander off now, to wait impatiently for the next chapter.

I sympathize with , ca, cause my dad used to drag me into caves all the time. I hate the dark, getting dirty, cold, tight spaces (which there always are), and heights (again, there's always a ton). Not to mention the creepy noises... ugh. Hate. Gimmie a killer mountain any day!

Shoes!!!!!! Finally!!! |^__^| Even if her pop culture references, confuse them, they certainly amuse us. Legolas is such a cutie. But I don't want him to fade... |T_T| Whoa, Our Leggie is one fast mover... Wasn't expecting it to progress quite that fast. I wonder what she will do when she realizes just what it means for an elf to fall in love with a mortal? I don't know what I'd do if I was stuck in Moria with them, I'd be freaking out. As I always say, I'm not afraid of the dark, rather, I'm afraid of what's in it. |^_^| A personal saying of mine. Anyways, your so lucky to know elvish, I want to learn but I don't know how to go about it. Take your time responding, I know how it is to be swamped, I will be as well soon. Good Chappie. I can only imagine what will happen next when the orcs and troll attacks, not to mention the Balrog. Well, I'll be eagerly awaiting your next update.

As usual, a wonderful chapter. However, I think you should let Asca have a few good memories from her own world.. Something good that she could tell about - and not just songs, but actual memories...

Another awesome chapter. Y'know I never really thought of the elves fading from grief like suicide, but, in a fashion it kind of is. Interesting... Well, we'll be in Moria soon, and Asca has her elf-sized pillow back. |^_~| Can't wait for the next chapter. And it really would be nice if you translated the elvish you use. I know words like mellon-nin, but am unsure of whole sentences. Well, that's it for now. Keep up the hard work.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet... yeah, elf smoochies cure all ^______^ If it's not too much trouble, could you be so kind as to provide translations of the elvish somewhere? I have an idea of what they'ryingying, but I'd rather be sure. Anywho, keep writing! At this point, I don't care if it's a Mary-Sue, I like her too much...
