Oh Ottis, this is just beautiful. This short story of yours is so rich of beautiful descriptions that makes me feel that as a reader, as if I am just a few metres away from what is happening. For example:
He looked back once to see his footprints in the rain-soft earth. They marched in an orderly line behind him. He could not see hers at all.
The dialogue between Galadriel and little Sam is a treat to read. Thanks for sharing this with us Ottis! |

I like your portrayal of Galadriel and Sam Your descriptions and the use of language are splendid, and very atmospheric.
Very well written short story. It certainly deserves five stars. Thank you for sharing.

| This is lovely, Ottis. But why is it AU? Is there anything in canon that says it could not have happened? So much about it is interesting - Galadriel's way of talking that is at once motherly and aloof, your descriptions of Sam's feverish perspective, the fullness of the story. I'm glad you posted it. |

YAY! This is wonderful Ottis. You did it, you kept everyone in the same place within the space time continuum. Yay you! LOL
That said, you know I thought even then that this is touching and now, even more so. Marvelous job, hon, and yay to you for your new author MPA nomination!
