Well this is certainly going to be interesting. With Essos being conquered by the Black Numenoreans, things are looking tense for the story, especially when Westeros gets word. Oogh, it's going to be even worse if Sauron is actually behind it all. I'm excited to see where you're placing Umbar out here will it be more eastwards towards the Sunset Sea and Asshai, or more south?
Also, what happened to Valandil and Jorah and the rest of the villagers? You never revealed their fate in the last Essos chapter. My best guess is their making speed towards Westeros to warn them, it's the most logical, but you can do whatever you want.

Not as epic as I thought it would be, but still epic enough! Now lets just hope he stays dead.

Damn. Such a powerful ending. But also, I didn't realize until this year you practically predicted the "Of the Ashes" title so long ago, and here we in 2019 with the Queen of Ashes. Goddamn, I salute.

Been 10 months or so and I'm still reading. Maybe longer, and this is probably my fifth time rereading. Anyways, I've got one question for you, one that I'm sure you've heard endlessly, so excuse me if I may ask one more time; why haven't you updated? This is, by far one of the greatest of GOT/Tolkien Fanfics I have ever read! It has so much potential! By the way you go, the rings have yet to be forged, and the free peoples have yet to band together against Sauron in the great war! Now, I don't know if this fic is dead, on hiatus or whatnot, but I have to give you my praise to continue. If you have writers block, I believe you can overcome it, if you don't feel like continuing, I understand. Just let us, the audience, the fans, the readers, know what happens. Thank you for reading this if you ever do.

this really needs an update.

There is no way Numenorians are coming to westeros and not becoming kings of the land even dragons would be worthless against them

Ha! I quite like how Valandil is now going by Thorongil, being one of the many names Aragorn went by. It suits him well.

I really don't like the Numenoreans being a part of the seven kingdoms. More than that, I loathe Elendil bowing to a man he call HIS king! The Numenoreans should have their own kingdom!

Idiocy! Malarkey! As much as I loathe Isildur for causing my downfall, I do not believe he would be beaten so easily, not with Narsil in hand!

Well that was obviously the Queen's doing.

Interesting story though I don't know where the eighth kingdom is. Obviously somehwere in the North, the only kingdom large enough to actually be two kingdoms, but where?

This is probably my favorite fanfic I've ever read to be honest. I really hope you come back and finish it.

Brilliant story - such a perfect blend. I really hope you come back to this someday.

I think I speak for all of us here, this story is one of a kind, and amazingly well written, I don't know what happend to it but if there is a distinct possibility you could continue it we all would be so happy

great but abndoned
