Interesting notion on following Amroth! With your characterization of him, his story almost begged to be told. While he may have been a bit of the 'playboy', I think he is certainly going to find Devoran well worth the development of his patience and trust. Looking forward to more on this couple and their story.

I have always had a soft spot for Amroth, and Duinhir going home without his son's has always pulled at my heart strings. So I just had to combine the two. Thanks a lot for reviewing.LBJ

What an excellent start - I am so looking forward to this story already.

This is a wonderful little story, I'll definitely be watching for updates. I love your characterization of Amroth and am delighted with the balance of fragile strength you've managed to portray in Devoran

Hi Sulriel, lovely you are reading. I am going for emotions in this one a bit. And a touch of Georgette Heyer. Hope you continue to enjoy.LBJ

Lovely - I can see the sea spray and hear the hoof-beats! I do hope that they get together again quickly.

As usual your character development is excellent. I always enjoy the way you make them very believable and involve them in situations appropriate to their world without making them characatures. Looking forward to their story.

Wonderful story - I can't wait to read more!

Amroth is perfect - Devoran doesn't have a chance, does she? Smile smiley face

Her recent family history is terribly sad. What did the bard sing? 'the tall bowmen, Derufin and Duilin' did not return to the meres of Morthond.

I have always been a bit fixated on Duinhir's story, I seemed awful for him to go home without his sons and I mused on how his wife would react. Great you are reading, and thanks for commenting.LBJ

I loved Tide of Destiny, and this one has me hooked as well. Love the character development, the descriptions, and am looking forward to more!

I enjoyed reading part one of this serie, and am very happy to see part two coming to life! You cast a nice input into the life of the otherwise relatively unknown characters. I like your portrayal of Amrothos. I'm eagerly waiting for more!

I admit to being partial to the Amroth I created, so I had to give him his own story.Thanks a lot for commenting.LBJ

>>“And now, Drummer, there is just you and me. But I will always remember the wonderful time I had with my Prince.”

You have me in tears.

in combination with this wonderful line: >>If she spoke about Amroth, he would seem real, not just a handsome hero who had passed through her dreams leaving her unsettled and wanting.

You so perfectly capture the depth of the pain and 'not-regret' in the emotion of a love touched on and lost before it could have a chance to be.

Another wonderful chapter and I'll be waiting even more anxiously for the next one.

Had you in tears! Then I achieved what I intended. Thanks for that, Sulriel. The poor girl has a bit of a hard time ahead,

Such a sad chapter - so beautifully captured; the joy of having been together, the sadness that they are not together, and the sorrow that she cannot see that they ever will be.

I am glad that there will be a place for her at court - and fear that she may well have to take the King up on the offer all too soon.

Well, she might. At least it is a way out for her if things get too difficult. Thanks very much for reviewing.LBJ
