This is a very good story! Well written (despite a few little errors I'm sure a quick sweep will correct), and well told! I'm not actually familiar with the history that surrounds this, except in the vaguest terms (must get back to my Silm), but your plot logic seems sound, and you handle the characters nicely. I particularly like your descriptions of Galadriel. Is it actually complete? The end is a little abrupt... Could be just me though  Lovely! Gonna read more of you, I hope |

You have an admirable command of the Silmarillion (!) and a great instinct for the appropriate cadence of dialogue. I also enjoyed the strong visual quality of your descriptions. "...so detailed that only the alabaster color revealed it as marble..." "...expected to see the chest rise and fall..." I could clearly see the marble of Amarie.
A beautifully textured, nostalgic piece. |

I'm very glad to see this story here. It is well thought out and very believable.
It's very good to see a fill-in-the-blanks that keeps everyone in character. It's a rare gem to find.

| This is an excellent story and I was glad to see someone pursue a line of reasoning for something I'd wondered about myself many times. How did Elendil from Numenor get a sword made by Telchar the Dwarf in the First Age? You gave a very plausible and well thought out answer for that. Fantastic knowledge of the Silm. I look forward to seeing more work from you. |

Lovely completion! We now know where it came from, how it got here and where it is going. Very nice!
Now go and write more! Anything you want, but more!  |

Another great story! Like Andreth, I always wondered how Elendil got his sword. Obviously incorporating Finrod and Galadriel into ANY story is a winner for me! I know I'm grasping for more story here, but what about Galadriel hearing the tale of Elendil's fall? Seeing the shards of Narsil lying in honor in Imladris? Or Aragorn with the Fellowship in Lothlorien, bearing the sword?  ops:
I'm glad I found this piece, and I eagerly aniticpate your next piece of work!
