This is really good! I like the way you have the two different story lines, from the alternate future/past and Laureanna's present. Update soon, please!

This is such a beautifully written story. I had stopped reading fanfiction, but after I stumbled upon this one, I started again.

The prologue was so powerful that it made me sit on the egde of my seat.

I hope you continue writing this story until the very end.

I've been lurking on this website for the past 3 years and I've read a lot of stories in that time, but this is by far my favourite. I've been re-reading it as I wait longingly for an update. PLEEEASE, don't stop now!

YAY!!! Al, you're back Very Happy smiley face Very Happy smiley face Very Happy smiley face *dances happily* And what a chapter it was!

First, the flashback... Oh, my, poor Elladan. Can I adopt him? Wink smiley face I can imagine how he must feel when he endured that hunting trip with Elrond and Erestor (it must have been pretty boring to listen to them again, lol), and that constant interrogation from Glorfindel. And he must have been really angry having let Elrohir fool him once more. But, in the end, I'm glad to see the twins come to an agreement regarding Laureanna as she had stronger feelings for Elrohir. I couldn't help but smirk at the scene in the garden though. I wish I could have seen the look on Glorfindel's face when he caught Elladan holding Laureanna's hand waaaay too long than Glo could accept Wink smiley face Oh, joys of being an overprotective father... Wink smiley face

But then, the battle. It was a set of action-packed scenes. I know you mentioned that you weren't sure of this chapter because of the battle scenes, but I'm here to assure you that you did a great job depicting the horrors of the battle in this chapter. The fear and terror Laureanna felt, her need to defend herself were greatly completed with her overwhelming urge to constantly convince herself that Elhorif was unhurt and that he was going to survive. The moment she felt compassion toward the man she had to kill in self-defence was very moving. And I wondered when and how she was going to explain to the twins that she had never seen a battle before, as they suspected she wasn't telling them the truth. I guess they would have to wait a little longer as they were going to another battle. I love the ending scene Smile smiley face It was a most needed quiet point in the chapter full of action and raw emotions.

Keep up the awesome work, Al. Thank you tons for updating the story Very Happy smiley face

See! You did an excellent job with the action scene. I felt Laureanna's deep horror and imagine that all soldiers must go through that the first time they must take a life. How much worse would it be for an elf, and especially one born in Aman and wholly unused to suffering. You've captured all that so well. I'm thrilled to see this story continue.

Oh! What an amazing chapter this is Very Happy smiley face I think Laureanna will be furious when she gets to know what happened with her. Wink smiley face But first things first.

The flashback; I loooove it. Every time I read about how Glorfindel would react to seeing Elrohir and his daughter I smile. They are so in love yet they've danced around each other for ages, it seems. I suppose our good old Glo would be grumpy for a while but all in all he'd approve of their relationship. He's got no other choice Wink smiley face But hey, it already happened!

Now, I can clearly see why Laureanna so desperately wanted Elrohir to stay with her. You've done a great job conveying the feelings of uncertainty, helplesness and fear of what was to come. It's good that she has friends by her side, Legolas and Elladan, but I can't imagine what she must have felt, poor thing.

Huge thanks for updating! I'm looking forward to reading the next chap Very Happy smiley face
