| 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 |

| 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? 
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 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 |
