| What a delightful story. Your writing style is exquisite, and your sense of the canon characters very true. Legolas and Gimli spoke like... well, Legolas and Gimli. There were a few deviations from canon, but I'm sure you know what they are and did them on purpose. Of course, I want to find Entville and walk in the trees there. What a glorious image. But the most impressive part of this story was the pace. Easy, soft, even during the battle scenes. Through the vast majority of the story, the whole tone was one of a fading world. At the end, the scenes in Valinor were almost too bright and giddy to read. JRR would like that difference, I think. So did I. |

| Dear Jen, I must confess that though you got me initially hooked with Forgotten allies, I am now absolutely enthralled by this story. It is wonderful. Thank you! |

| B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L! I love the pace. The romance developed quite nicely. I truly enjoyed how the friendship grew between Legolas and Elesia ...and without smut. Your story was my first experience of Valinor. I'm sad it had to end. Thank you for sharing your gift of writing. |

| WOW. I am truly impressed. Not many stories can make me feel heartache like your story did for some moments. From the description i thought it only to be action/adventure, but i was pleasently surprised with the realistic romance that came to life. Your writing is better than most published romance writers i know. I look forward to reading anything new you post since i have read and loved all of your stories. |

Absolutely gorgeous!!!!!!!! I actually got upset and had an expression of horror on my face when Elesia fell in the water, I was like, no! no! no! It can't end this way!!! Thankfully it didn't! So sweet!!!!
Ciao! |

*speechless for a moment*
not even ROTK made me feel that wonderful heartache of the softness of Elesia's mortality and the hardness of Legolas' immortality....it really steals your breath at the saddness and the sweet......the sweet feel of the story.
wonderful job.
