*claps* Bravo!!
I absolutely love the Legolas/Alex saga you have so intricately weaved. It's taken me a few days but I think I have managed to catch up and I am so delighted with this story? Oh please tell me that there is more on the way? I need another wonderful story! You have to finish this saga because there's still the threat of Lastharos to deal with AND Morgoth...Not to mention how attached I've become to the eastern elves.
I have to admit that I love how you weave the characters together. They all seem so original in their behaviour and conduct. Legolas and Alex's relationship is wonderful but sometimes I wonder if 'mortal' love could be so pure that she could want no other elf than Legolas. The idea seems a bit far-fetched to me but it works wonderfully in your story and is extremely believable.
On a side note, Orophin's unrequited love is just heart-wrenching. I wish there was some way he could be with Alex, even though I want her to remain with Legolas, I can't help but love Orophin more and more. Seldom has a story portrayed him as you have in this amazing epic and I admire your originality!
I would be grateful to know if there will be a follow up.

It would be easy to just respond with a "ditto for me" as I agree with everything said by MissMoomin. I find it hard to believe that there aren't more reviews of your work. Of course, I have to take some of the blame for that myself; I've just discovered and read through all of the Alexandra/Legolas stories as I was thoroughly hooked. Like the Energizer Bunny I kept going and going until I was done.
I hope that you haven't been discouraged by the lack of responses and that your muse still has a few stories to go before their tale is completed. I would love to see Lastharos find himself in The Halls of Waiting. And poor Orophin needs to find that special one that is meant for him; he has seen the strength of Legolas' and Alexandra's bond and he needs one for himself. I hate to see his heartbreak-it seems obvious to all of the elves except those involved. |

I have to agree with both the previous reviews. I love this saga! It just keeps getting better and better! Please please please continue writing this story! I have to find out if they get Lastharos and Morgoth...Not to mention I to have become attached to the eastern elves.  The way you have created this story is just so amazing I couldn't stop reading! I've neglected other things because I just couldn't stop reading! haha I hope you continue to write this story! The 3 of us are anxiously waiting for more hahaha  |

| I'm confused, if Helcarin is the son of Glorfindel and Erestor wouldn't that make this MPreg. Sorry, as someone who finds that kind of thing offensive, I come on open scrolls archive to get away from that stuff. Please inform me if I have misunderstood! |
