Very poignant and beautifully written. I think you showed Elrond's pain, reluctance, sadness and hope really well. Thank you for this short glimpse at him Smile smiley face

How is it that I haven't reviewed this yet! Am fallin down on my game here. This piece is beautiful, Al. It's beautiful writing, and it's beautiful subject matter. Elrond as a father always gets me right in the ticker. With all the mini tragedies in the LoTR/Silm epic, I think what happened to him -- and none of it was ever because of something he did wrong -- was the most poignant. First his mentor, then his wife, then his daughter... all that's left now are his sons, and somehow I imagine they weren't particularly kind, either. Thank you for giving him voice. This really reads like a voice-over, sharing his secret fears and grief.
