I finally saw the movie this past week. Jury's still out - for me at least.

This is an interesting crossover. Not sure if or how you could develop it further. Still the visual of that magnificent tent, the golden eyes from within, the centaur assessing, and Legolas kneeling in understanding - nice.

Loved this- deeply moving and beautiful. (Havent seen the movie- love th books too much -but I said that about LOTR!) That moment of understadning is what makes it.

I saw Narnia last week and enjoyed it very much. If I remember there is a forum thread about crossovers. It seems to me it would be a natural crossover because of the number of similarities and contrasts. Can you just see the Dwarfs thinking that Fawns are odd? Wink smiley face

- sorry for the bit of rambling. - what I especially love about this is the connection to the eyes, which is an element that Tolkien used repeatedly. I can't really think of anything more captivating and regal than the depths of a lion's golden eyes and Legolas would certainly recognize Aslan through that connection.

I don't usually read crossovers because they're so often butcher-pasted, with the elements twisted and forced together - but what you've done here shines through with an understanding of both stories, a picking up of the matching threads and bringing them together.

Thank you for another delightful bit of writing. (and Happy Writing throughout the New Year!)

You've brought together my two favourite characters from the films -- Legolas and Oreius! And (as everyone else has said) Legolas' moment of recognition makes this a tiny masterpiece!

Impressive, very impressive. I loved the combination of Narnia and LOTR. Also loved the imagery. Well done!
