I didn't know you were posting this here and it was completed until I saw the post on L&S. I love this story. Its a very 'real' take on the fantasy world. Plus any stories about children that aren't overly sappy and sweet - gets extra points with me. Its a hard them to do. The last chapter (that I hadn't read before) made me sniffle again. Can't wait to read the sequel - but I think I'll wait until you post it here instead of as you go on GofI. It almost drove me crazy waiting for the next chapters on this one lol

I absolutley loved this story. Rani is adorable as any child is and you feel for Ivoreth and all she has been through. I have wondered how old she is since you don't really get a feel for her age. Elladan seems is doing a great job as Adar, but Elrohir is still miffed at her for the stolen coins, hope he dosen't make her suffer to long.A great story, can't wait to hear the sequel.

A most enjoyable story. It was heartbreaking, but seemed very realistic. While I was saddened that Daven died, it did add to the overall affect of the story. Very nicely done and I hope there is a sequel someday!

I just saw this, and couldn't put it down until I read the whole thing. It was heart-wrenching, but then heart-warming.... I think both the little girls will feel safe in Rivendell, so it ends on a hopeful note.

I liked the grittiness of some of the seedier aspects of their life and of the characters in the story.... and the fact that Ivoreth can't quite let go of her need to be responsible for her little sister, even if it leads to theft....

Very nicely done!
