I love how you work with Lothirel's emotions! I think that you do an awesome job of really capturing everything that she's feeling, and her torn feelings. It's coming together really well! Elfhelm...I knew something was going to happen between them! And now you have left us with a cliffhanger. The loss of Lothirel's child and how she is coping with the loss is very...different. Her despair and depression are very acute in your words. I can't wait till you update!

i have never lost anyone very close to me when i was old enough to realize anything about death, so i can't really describe loss as much as an almost-mother like lothiriel here. just a question: will lothiriel name her stillborn child?

anyway, that's it. thanks for a really moving chapter.

Poor Lothiriel! Poor Eomer! Poor Elfhelm!

What a complicated set of characters! I love it! Lothiriel's depression, and subsequent neglect of her husband is heartbreaking. I'm glad that she now realizes that she must share her burden with her husband, even though he may not understand what has happened.

I feel so sorry for Elfhelm. His true love is so close to him, yet so far away...poor fellow. I hope he finds someone that can return his feelings, one day.

Wondeful update! I can't wait to read more.

Oops, forgot to review. Of course I've read it days ago.

Although I hope every time when I see you've posted that it becomes better for them and it doesn't, it's much more realistic the way you desribe it. When bad and terrible things happen it takes a lot of time to cope with them, and you don't just wake up some days later and everything is well again. I hope you will make it better for them some time, but until then we have to wait.

So though reading the last chapters made me really sad, I'll of course read on!

Greetings, nienor

Where are the new chapters? Roll Eyes smiley face

I had feared that you had abandoned the story. But then I was clever enough to read your last AN and realized you probably were on holiday and now are busy with real life.

So I just hope you'll go on when you have more time again. I have the story alert running, so I won't miss it.

Have a nice summer, nienor Hello smiley face

Wow!!!

I just found this! Absolutely wonderful. I'm only on chapter 5... so DON"T give it away, but it looks as if you are setting up a lovely threesome... a sort of Arthur/Gwynevear/Galahad type thing.

I'll be back...

I came across this story yesterday in one of my many perusals of the site for more E/L stories and I can truthfully say that yours is probably one of the most creative, realistic, and well done stories of this genre that I've read. Every chapter had my heart leap into my throat; when I realized that there would soon be a very ugly confrontation between our favorite couple, I almost didn't want to read it, that's how powerfully this story has affected me. Many of us fangirls love to dream of true love between them and the theme that love can surpass all odds, and very rarely do we as readers (or writers!) find a story that gives such a refreshing and unique scenario as this one does. We don't like to think of the possibility of discord and discomfort in Meduseld and the fact that you aimed at this head on with no qualms is admirable and shows how fearless a writer you are. When I finished 'Ghosts of Meduseld' and looked to see when you had last updated, I have to be honest and admit that I was very disappointed. You have a gift for writing and a creative, refreshing outlook on our favorite couple and I'd hate to see this story join the pile of abandoned fanlit. This story has great potential and is a wonderful read already; I know that if you reapply yourself to it, you will be happy with your final product. I know your readers certainly will be! So, to sum up, your story is phenomenal and extremely creative and I really hope you find the motivation (this review? :O) to continue writing because I know that I would certainly appreciate it and I know a lot of others on this site would too. So, happy writing and wonderful job!

Oh wow. This is amazing! One of the BEST E/L fics I've ever come across. Why haven't you updated in ages??? It would be a shame for this fic to be abandoned.... I'd be totally sad if that happened.
