Thank you for an enjoyable chapter.

Best story i have ever read. Great story. Plss write a sequel. I want to see them reincarnated with happy ending

Oh, that was lovely. Like other reviewers have pointed out, there were a few issues with character development and pacing, but the plot was a wholly intriguing concept that I think you pulled off nicely. Mo Ghille Mear is nice, but my ch61/exit music is so totally The Song of Hope (Duet) (ignoring Aragorn's tenor, though). Happy writing!

WOW! What an amazingly written first chapter. I can’t wait to get stuck into this story!

You called Durin During...

No...

Oh, I adored that book...

Bo... Bilbo... Mouse... Hobbit... Hole... Smial...

I want to be completely honest with you, I really like the concept of someone of the line of Durin being revived at a date far past the story lines of either the Hobbit or LotR. It gives the writer a ton of room to play in and makes me really surprised that I haven't seen any other fics inspired or based off of this one. It was very creative of you, good work. But unfortunately, while the concept is very enjoyable, I found the plot to be too slow and the characters lacking in depth.

I probably would have enjoyed this more if it had been paced better or at least had more events in it to keep readers intrigued (Or maybe I just enjoy lighter-hearted stories with more humor, so take this part with a grain of salt).

*SPOILER ALERT FOR ANY WHO HAVE NOT READ OR HAVE NOT FINISHED READING*

I was not surprised when Nannulf died a tragic death, only mildly disappointed. Being the sweet and innocent character who served as the sunshine in a dark world, it only made it too easy to guess that he was going to kick the bucket sooner or later. He was a very predictable character.

Rin was also predictable and in my opinion she was too much of a Mary-Sue. Not just because of her personality, but because of how she and Thorin interacted. Their relationship just didn't feel very authentic and didn't build very well.

But overall, "I've Seen Hell" was a decent fic, and I would like to see an epilogue of the aftermath of everything. I hope you write very many stories in the future and that you enjoy writing them.

Don't know if you still see these or not, but, ghosts of Cannae...

Thanks for a wonderful story that I will re-read. It's very interesting to see Middle Earth so far in the future, and I loved that you had Dwarves and Men work together to defeat the evil forces from the East. Oh, and you had a well written Thorin/OC plot too, which I greatly enjoyed as well.

This story started well and only got better! You have some skill, and I hope you continue to use it. I enjoyed this story very much, and the way you ended it was happy without being entirely unbelievable- a hard thing to do in a story such as this. Keep it up!

Hey there!

Well, that was an interesting journey! The end is perfect. No, not the end. The whole story is! Alone the idea was so different... so unique. I love how you pictured the Fifth Age. It felt real. It is a shame that your story have so 'few' favorites, because your story is a true gem. Like The Arkenstone itself. I'm glad you wrote it. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful story. But one question! Will you upload a tiny, tiny epilogue? I'm dying to know where Thorin and Rín are going. Or if the little red-haired girl was really Thorins and Ríns daughter?! (What he saw in the mirror-thingy) Please tell me, you write a epilogue. Even it is a little, tiny chapter. But I HAVE TO KNOW. That would be SO AWESOME. I want to see some peaceful scene after all that. Where Thorin and Rín are carefree. You know what I mean? But yeah, what bothers me the most is just: The little one was the daughter? You torture me with that D: I beg you. Mercy!

Wow! I don't think I've ever been so hooked from the 1st chapter. Your writing is awesome it's easy to read and if you know any lore from LOTR your first Chapter makes perfect sense I'm so excited to read more. Your character has barely been described or introduced and I already want to know more about her and what's going to happen. What a fabulous way to start a story!

Wow! I don't think I've ever been so hooked by a first chapter before! your writing is awesome your character has barely been introduced or described and I already want to know way more about her. I can't wait to read more of the story to see how she'll develop! what a way to start a new story! well done!
