Ok, I have owed you a review on this for soooo long. This is a wonderful story. I love Amrun in it. She is a really strong character but at the same time, she is faced with so many really incredible challenges, not the least of which in the recent chapters, trying to adapt to being the new Queen of Rohan. I think you do a really realistic job of showing that she is not going to just marry and live happily ever after in such a situation--it just wouldn't be realistic. It's too much of a radical change to expect everything to be smooth. Especially considering that people are going to have questions about Thengel. I think you have really shown the difficulties Amrun was bound to experience in a really poignant way.

And the hot, steamy sex doesn't hurt either. I mean--this last chapter started with two solid pages of hot, steamy lovin'. What more can I ask for.

Love the story and love the characters and I'm sorry for being such a lousy reviewer. Very Happy smiley face

Being a great Thranduil lover, I naturally had to read this. But I was absolutely delighted with it. I would like any of these drabbles on their own--the image of Legolas with his first horse to the image of King Thranduil vs Dad Thranduil sending Legolas to Rivendell. Those are wonderful moments. But combining them into a series had a real impact. This was outstanding!

I am so happy to see this! It made my day! Welcome back and I hope things are going well for you--some of your stories are the reason I started writing LotR fanfic so I am very glad to see you back and well! What a wonderful chapter to come back with too! I am so looking forward to the continuation of this.

Oh Nancy, this is just tragic--I don't remember that quote about Denethor after his wife's death and the idea that you took from it--that he looked in order to see past the circles of the world to her--is the saddest thing. This brough a tear to my eyes. Well done and a great addiction for Denethor.

All of us who know the love of a faithful beast will be touched by this story. It definitely brought tears to my eyes--beautiful Arod, Legolas and Aragorn in this. Wonderful.

This is outstanding! The dialogue between Merry and the lass was witty and very hobbit-y and the...romance was really well done and very steamy. I really loved it!

Very tragic indeed, Space. You captured the terror of the victims and the violent passion of the sons very well. I also have always liked the image in that letter--this was a great vignette to build around it.

Sorry I have been so far behind in reviewing. My watched stories got deleted and I keep forgetting to check for updates amongst the thousands of other things I'm trying and failing to keep up with...

I loved the introduction Colin and the 'stranger.' I will try to be patient to find out who he is. There were a number of things in this chapter that he said or that others said that piqued my curiousity. I know I've said this several times but it is true so... you do a really good job with the pacing and the mystery in this story. Love it. Smile smiley face

Oh I loved seeing Legolas's homecoming! And I like seeing a purely happy moment for once, rather than one mixed with the sea longing. Thanks.

This was really well written. Little Boromir has a lot of personality here--I like the end where his smile gets bigger when Aragorn speaks to him. And all Aragorn's contemplations here are very meloncholy. I especially liked, "The hand that rests so peacefully against your mother's breast will all too soon grasp a sword." And Aragorn's thoughts about his mother and her sacrifice. Well done.
