I love the story of Arwen and Aragorn. To me, their story is one of the most beautiful things Tolkien ever wrote. Thank you so much for writting this. It is very well-written, excellent wording, and it stays true to the romance between Arwen and Aragorn with a few things added in that only enhance the story. Good job!

You don't need the lyrics--it works beautifully without them. And you are right--this is a real tearjerker. Smile smiley face

*Unashamed sobbing* Even when I read this in the Appendix of the Return of the King it brought tears to my ears. And Tolkien had written it much more impersonally. The magnitude of love, and feeling and sacrifice...*More sobbing* I was surprised that you didn't take from Tolkien's original script, but it was moving just the same. Wonderful, excellent work...Does anyone have a tissue?

How touching, but without being fussy! That's a narrow line to tread, and you've done it nicely. I skipped the lyrics (I usually do in songfics), and then went back and read them after I was done reading the story. The song seems to fit nicely, but I didn't need it to enjoy the story. Very nice fic! Thanks for letting me read.

Wow.

that was below the belt. way below.

Simple and impossible sweet. I commend both the idea and the excecution. your insight on Aragorn's final farewells also were very real. I can all but see young Eldarion trying to look like a tough man as his ada is saying goodbye to life.

Oh hell. need a handkie.
