| Thank you, for what I think, is going to be another fantastic story. Thanks for having Celeborn speaking elvish and not english. It worked well for this chapter. Can't wait for the next update....Daniel |

Thanks, Daniel.
There truly is no reason for Celeborn to have learned English, is there? And he's perfectly capable of making himself understood in the situation that occurred. Meg is in for a very interesting time...
Thanks for the review, and I hope you enjoy the story. |

This is an intriguing beginning, Aerwen. Are these the only folks left in Rivendell, or are there other Elves? Or maybe the sons of Elrond?
I like what you're doing with Sindarin, putting the reader in the shoes of Meg in terms of not understanding the words, but picking up on the non-verbal cues, which you convey well.
Looking forward to seeing where you go with this....

Hi there!
No, I'm sorry to say, the sons of Elrond will not make an appearance; they've sailed. And the language barrier is one that I had lots of fun with. Thanks for the review, and I hope you enjoy the story. |

This is a wonderful start  I still need to catch up on this at the LC, but that won't stop me from re-reading here. Beautiful story! |

I love the way you describe Imladris. I could close my eyes and do a virtual tour in my mind.
How lucky can I get, a story with Galadrim. lol
Thanks for the update. Can't wait for the next chapter...Daniel |

Thanks for the review, Daniel!
I thought to draw out a floor plan for Imladris about half-way through this, I swear, because it was becoming very real to me. I still may do it, because I use Imladris as a setting in other stories, and it would be easier to write action if I knew where the characters were going, and from where.
Glad you're enjoying this. |

I really like how you portray Celeborn, who truly is The Wise here. And Radagast is also perceptive, as well as self-effacing, which is how I see him in canon, too.
Hmmmm.... no one waiting for her? That leaves the possibility that she could stay.... but is that her horse, or did she rent it from a stable? If so, might they send someone looking for her? If so, there could be more people like her brother flying around.....
Waiting with bated breath.... okay, semi-bated, since it will be a week.... to see where you take the story from here.... Well done!

LOL! Thanks, Barbara!
Yes, this scenario has a lot of possibilities. And I see Celeborn as a very calm and authoritative figure here. He's the last remaining bit of elven royalty in the world, after all.
I'm so glad you're enjoying this. |

| A very intriguing start. I like the character development and the description of Imladris. You are writing about a subject near and dear to my heart. I shall be watching for updates. |

Ahh - do I detect a hint of romance for Radagast? What a wonderful idea! But their 'otherness' is obviously becoming more and more clear to Meg - I wonder when she will begin to get a glimmer of just what she has stumbled in to?
This is becoming one of my 'must read' stories! |
