Oh what a hoot! I laughed at the image of the Nagûls moping about on the ruins of Barad-dûr, and the way Khamûl just calls the others by number, and then continued laughing. A good idea he had,  to use the volcanic rock with its healthy skin properties.  What a concept, this Faire, with such diverse folk in attendance. 

I'm glad you're giving prompts for the Scavenger Hunt challenge otherwise I might not have seen this one. May I have a prompt please?

Thank you! I still remembering coming up with the idea, lines included, when I was trying to fall asleep that March. I then learned that it's impossible to laugh yourself to sleep. I'm glad it's still bringing laughter eleven years later.
