This is a very touching story with a surprise ending. I love the fact that Haldir was married! And, that he needed to be comforted by his wife... although, I think she needed comforting, too. But, still I liked the fact that this strong warrior that was out encouraging all of his men had someone to come home to. Very nicely done. Thanks for sharing. |

| This is very nicely done. I like the theme of his hands throughout and switching to her hands at the end. |

| I agreee with the other two posts. Yes, it is so good to see something like that and a married Haldir instead of the the regular, already boring stuff. Great! Hope to see more from your quill! |

| Liked the underling tenderness of both the warrior and the healer. Nice touch on the last bit, warrior and wife. |

Very subtly and beautifully written I really love the way in which the healer described Haldir as a brother, warrior, commander, and a husband. This was a touching, gently told tale. Thank you for sharing  |

| Ow Ellie, yet again such a fine work coming from your quill. I like the flow in this short work: it reads gently, has a good pace and a beautiful build up. You can sense that both hold up an appearance to the outside world that they can keep it together to those who depend on him: Haldir being the commander with a wink (LOL shooting in the target of his brother), your original character dispensing hope and serenity. But when they mingle their fear, you can see how they strengthen each other. I love it how you bring it to full circle. Simply beautiful! |

This is definitely a well done, thought out story. I like the flow - the paragraphs connect seamlessly - and, as Sulriel said, the theme of his hands throughout the piece.
Thank you for sharing this. |
