It is so so so great to see another chapter, and *takes a deep breath* what a chapter it was! Oh my!

Well, the scene in Rivendell made me shiver. I found this scene thrilling, especially when Sauron poured the miruvor on the desk. It was a very poignant, significant moment, when the Dark Lord claimed rule over the former elven home. And I felt so sad reading about Cirdan and the Grey Havens Sad smiley face You've brightened the mood of the chapter by portraying a private moment Laureanna and Elrohir shared, and it was really good to see the light in the darkness around them.

Excellent read! I hope to see more soon, and thank you for updating!

What a stubborn little so and so that Elrohir is! I think it is so romantic that she loved him at first sight and still loves him in spite of his pig-headedness. I hope she can straighten out the situation, poor girl! This is such an excellent story! More please, mom!

I'm so glad you're still updating this story. I ditched out of work early so I could finish reading this newest chapter. I love how everything balances out between the background exposition from Valinor, and the current happenings in Middle-Earth. I can't wait to see the upcoming battles through Laureanna's eyes, and I'm looking forward to Elrohir figuring out that he already knows all he needs to know without knowing what he thinks he needs to know (if that makes any sense at all...)

Thank you for another splendid chapter. It was touching, funny and thrilling.

I loved the flashback with the arrival of the Twins in Aman, and especially their meeting with Glorfindel and Laureanna. Oh, and Rumil too Smile smiley face Then, the current events - poor Laureanna, she had to be so careful not to reveal too much and still to sound believable.

I'm looking forward to seeing the next part. Thank you again Smile smiley face

Finally I found some time to catch up! Two complete different chapters, but both filled with tension. The impending and last battle on Middle Earth if Sauron wins, the memories of Galadriel as she flees the Grey Havens compared to Alqualonde... those are beautiful parallels. Sauron's evil and happiness that he finally got the chance to destroy Rivendell was just superb. The other chapter feels all about earning love and trust, this combined with the character of Elrohir that you write in this story, it just feels that you are happy to be on his side, with his temper and mistrust. Perhaps he just learnt the bad character traits of his mentor Glorfindel during his childhood Wink smiley face Now come on girl! Bring on the battle to kick some Corsairs ass!

I think my previous reviews of this incredibly well done story were at AFF.
You have created a complicated, believable scenario that works on every level. My compliments. You have treated the Elves with care and respect. Thank you for such an intriguing, suspenseful saga.

I am soooo behind on reviewing. Razz smiley face I love what you've done with all the complexities of this story, while still managing to keep the characters real and engaging. The combination makes it intensely personal; something more than a simple tale of "what if?"

Also you know how I feel about the twins. Wink smiley face Even in the heat of battle - yummy...
