This is really quite lovely, Lin. I really enjoyed seeing the common-man perspective and the way you talked about despair - it seemed almost like clinical depression or some other sort of oppressive dark mood that makes the danger seem so insurmountable. I can well imagine someone in Minas Tirith getting that feeling, either from the Nazgul all around or the unnatural night or just from the general tone of the city at that point.
