Again, very insightful, emotional, poignant and bittersweet piece of writing. I love the way you portrayed Huan and conveyed his thoughts. Indeed, a heartwrenching story. Thank you for sharing Very Happy smiley face

I can admit that I was thrilled when you told me that you would update this story. Yes, I've been waiting for another chapter and now, when it's posted, I am in awe once again.

This chapter is special, I feel, and it's quite a surprising one. You portrayed Orome beautifully and with gentleness. He feels responsible for both Celegorm and Huan, and he wants them to come back without the burden of grief, yet he knows it's a tough task to achieve.

I find this line particularly moving: Understanding is mine, yet again as his master; I will prepare him for his righteous part in the music now that his feä is no longer astray.

This was an excellent chapter. I cannot wait to see the next one.

Again, bravo, Rhaps!

This is amazing, Rhaps. I really admire your ability to capture a character's voice and write it consistently - having tried to write pieces in first person and having failed miserably, I appreciate the skill in this piece all the more - your language is beautiful, the emotions not overdone and not too little, it all just seeps through in a really effective way. Brilliant work!

It is good to see both Huan and Celegorm found redemption and were able, and willing, to forgive one another, with the help of the Valar and the task they were given to accomplish together.

You've brought this tale to a touching, hopeful end. Very well done Smile smiley face

Thank you.

You know, I will admit my ignorance but I'd not really given a lot of thought to the title until I read these last few chapters, but now it all has a lot more of a resonance for me, the way the belief and faith plays such a big part in it. Makes it really powerful, I now realise and I was really impressed. All in all it's a fantastic piece and very enjoyable, as well as moving, to read.
