Perceptive comment! I have a daughter whose "passion" at the moment is Phantom of the Opera. Every time I get in the car, she pops the CD into the player. The songs have become embedded in my head.

I had no intention of mimicking the sound track. However, after I reread the post, I realized what I had done. The allusion somehow seemed appropriate. This is also a "night" story with broken spirits of shadow.

It's interesting how we bring our own associations to Middle-earth, and they somehow come peeping through, whether in an interpretaion of the books or when crafting an RPG.
