WOW! I've marked this story - it's amazing! . I loved the first chapter - plus due to the mistake (curtsey) and blushes, you don't make the elves seem "perfect", but humanize them! Please, please update soon!  |

Hello! Congratulations on giving the Silm fandom a chance! Its so very rare to get Silm fic!
Now here is some feedback to consider:
* Elrilya is not a correct Elven name. The letter 'a' is not a feminine ending.
* The speech is bordering on being too modern and this comes close to ruining the atmosphere you are trying to create.
* Formatting! Did you check this fic after uploading it? The sentances are all over the place.
* The inclusion of genuine Silm references ie place names etc is wonderful
* You have a nice grasp of language regarding description.
Overall, i would say this is shaping up great but that you should be very careful with Elril as she is starting to read more teenybopper from Earth than Aman. Also, ease up on her physical descriptions. The reader should be the one to see she is beautiful by how you writer her - not from you just stating it.
Keep going, this will be a rare and enjoyable piece when finished!  |

really wonderful! i would say that things could be explained a little more about the journey to the two trees and the feelings of idril and elriya of them, and also make the steal;ing of the silmarils, as well as the death of the trees a little more than a paragraph, since they are so vital to the story and the events that occur because of them.
but please keep going! i look forwards toreading more! |

Well, I've just finished all of your posted chapters, and I must say that this story is absolutely wonderful
I loved your latest chapter. After Glorfindel was saved from his unwanted companion at the feast, his interest in Elrilya seemed to increase. Oooooohhhh, I can't wait for your next update. This is really, really good.
So, keep up the great work and update soon,
Michelle....  |

Wow! Now that's what I call a fast update!
Another fantastic chapter! Now that Glorfindel, Idril, and Elrilya are finally home, it will be interesting to see how they interact with one another. Glorfindel seems to be taking his new, prestigious role in stride, so I guess that's a good sign.
I'll admit that I haven't read all of the Silmarillion, yet. It's really nice to read a great story about the earlier struggles and lives of the elves.
Wondeful job! Now, I know that you've just updated TWICE in one day...I think ...but yes, I'm going to be greedy and ask for you to update soon...again
Hey, you can't blame a gal for trying!

now that i've reviewed on fanfiction.net, i figured it was only fair to do the same here. i sense a growing relationship between elrilya and glorfindel in the next chapter...
