Gently Inward

peering into the nightly abyss a surprise the guest awaiting gently she reeled him inward down, down putting his blistered wings to her smoldering ire

Well, the question is how does 'gently' work here? -- Is it an adverb referring to the verb 'reeled? -- or is an adverb referring to the verb 'awaiting?' B/c if it's the latter, then maybe she wasn't so gentle! :) gw

Sounds sinister Gershon, with a hint of Poe. Tom
