What a beautiful story you’ve given us so far Inglor. Like a delicate flower, it slowly unfolds itself to the reader. A love slowly starts to blossom, the court intrigue you present to us. I do like your Luthien: a strong elven woman, strong-willed and knows what she wants. I never actually paid close attention to the house of Finarfin and this story is such a treat to read because, somehow, more is going on at the surface then it shows. So, I am going to lean back in my chair and wait patiently for the next chapter to see where this is going. There are so many paths this story can take, so please Inglor, don’t let your readers wait too long!

Oh Alassante, just warn next time if your reader needs tissues. That conversation between Elladan and Elrohir, about Elladan pressing him to think of what would happen to him if Elrohir continued to be so reckless. *snif*

“You are right. It is a waste of time to lecture you. You are too stubborn to listen to anyone. If Glorfindel were here, perhaps he could beat some sense into you. Stop being so selfish. Naneth and Adar have lost too much to face losing you so stop trying to get yourself killed.” Angry tears filled Elladan’s eyes and Elrohir looked away to hide his own tears. “You are a fool but I…I need you. I cannot continue to live in this darkness without you by my side.” Crying or Very sad smiley face

But in current ME time... so many gems of dialogue. As Elliska and Binka said: the dialogue between Laureanna and Gimli LOL. But also the first meeting between Elrohir and Laureanna! Very enjoyable and sharp written, I just am so curious what will happen next and what Elrohir will do with that surge that passed through his feä. Thanks again Alassante, the next time I will make sure I have tissues nearby. Wink smiley face

I am simply amazed how you can change such a small thing and write a great story around it. Lillianna's fate is so incredibly bittersweet and she leaves so many behind.... Even so, you gave me a refreshing look at Boromir. To see him this caring and carefree was most certainly a treat to read!

Oh Alassante, what a incredibly great story to read. Often I felt so deeply for your Amrun and wanted to shake your Éomer out of that insanity, but it is so great to read them growing closer and with so much passion and love... yum! Also, besides the two being together Wink smiley face, I love the manner how you describe how Amrun tries to get adjusted to court life, it's servants and all the disadvantages that come along with living such a public life. Court gossip, servants walking into them, wee little Thengel running around.. I just adore him. And with the cliffhanger you leave us at the end of chapter 14... don't let us wait too long!

Bittersweet, that two elves would link their fates to a mortal woman. Not without a price it seems. Makes you wonder who gave Arwen the example of falling for Aragorn.

I love the titles Wink smiley face Ah yes, you take the reader through time and through a family tree, where all were forced to leave something behind they held so dear. Very sad.. but being an elf wasn't that easy. That is the feeling I get from it.

Oh wow... In such short chapters you write so beautifully why Finrod left his Amarië and how both felt about it. The last chapter is so rewarding, finally they talk to each other. This is just beautiful:

“You were always with me. In my darkest moment, you came to me and gave me strength.”

“Your father let me stay and I found some comfort. When what was mine, was not.”


Beautiful Inglor!

Ooo, wonderful! I love how you write Celeborn's motivation to remain behind with Elladan and Elrohir. Like Neniel said: that last line made me chuckle and leaves me wondering what he is looking forward to change over there. Very Happy smiley face
