Interrupted Journeys: Part One--New Journeys · Thu Aug 12, 2004 4:06 am

Reply to Aewithen: Thank you for the wonderful review. It is amazing how much more fun it is to write when you get a little feedback. I definitely agree with you about contractions. I am a contraction fiend but it doesn't sound right in Thranduil's mouth. I try to remember to do a search and replace but I miss a few still. Anyway--just so you know, this story is entirely written and it is truthfully very long. I update a little at a time every time I get internet access (i.e. when no one at work is standing over my shoulder!). Some parts may be more interesting to readers than others because it covers a lot of territory. The first few chapters are Thranduil adapting to being a new king and hopefully new husband--that will not be perfectly smooth. Then we'll see his decision to move his people north. Then he and Lindomiel have Legolas. There follows a lot of the events in Legolas and Thranduil's life together. It will go all the way to Legolas' return to Eryn Lasgalen after the war and then to his departure to Valinor. Like I said, some parts will be more interesting to people than others depending on what they like--romance, drama, some angst...whatever. But I try to stick to cannon (all the event reference Tolkien's Tale of Years) and just explore people's relationships because to me the fascinating thing in LotR is the wonderful fellowship (not to steal vocabulary from Tolkien but that is what it is). I hope there continue to be parts you like. Thanks again for reviewing!

I love this view of Elrond. It's great. I look forward to updates.

This is great! I don't know too much about menegroth since I only read the silmarilion once and that was a while ago but from what remember you're throwing in a lot of cannon which I really like. I think its neat to see little details worked into larger backstories. I like the charactierization and I think the tension is very much what it would have been between a sidarin lord and a noldorin lady. Looking forward to more updates.

Grima is a slime but you almost have me feeling sorry for him here. How sad (i.e. pathetic) are these lives. This is really a very well done story. It is impressive to see this topic done so well.

Legolas ar Yende Beriorgano · Sat Jan 31, 2004 7:32 am

I agree with Tourniquette. When I read the chapter with the marriage proposal, I thought, "the plot thickens--it can't be so easy.' I thought to see Legolas's father blow up and that is all. Now that I read the last postings, I am nearly in a state of panic for our dear characters. I haven't re-read it yet, but I think I remember that Legolas does take part in the Cauldron ceremony in Unrepentant, Unforgiven. He can't do that unless something drastic happens. I really hope this will be an AU for the original story. We all really love these characters

Legolas ar Yende Beriorgano · Fri Jan 23, 2004 7:30 pm

This is a great story. I am dying to see the final outcome. Please tell us how many chapters there are so we will know how much longer we must suffer Smile smiley face
