I liked the characters of the children and parents. Their antics and activities could well be typical of Rohirrim folk – the sub-created world they inhabited seemed logical. I noticed the names too. The writer took care with them, and made good distinctions between Rohan and Gondor. The story held my interest to the end of the first chapter, indicating good story telling abilities. I have two suggestions and a philosophical comment. If Ellawyn is getting riding lessons, please tell us non-riders the details that would convince us. I always appreciate researched details in a story. The story seems to ramble – is there anything that is not essential to the story that could be streamlined? I would so love a story about girls whose futures are not automatically subject to rigid roles. I saw some flashes of this in chapter one and would like to see this theme developed in a believable way. After all, Rohan had shield maidens, and Tolkien said almost nothing about them. Thus writers are free to imagine a culture that allows nontraditional roles, if they like. Hoping to see it, anyway. Best regards – Chathol-linn

A nice introduction, though it does ramble a bit. The characters are introduced and presented well.

Looking at how long it's been since the previous reviews, and the lack of further chapters, I do hope that you haven't given up on this story, it has a lot of potential...

Glad to see you back.

From your new chapeter, I very much sense a change in the family dynamic on the horizon. Very interesting...
I think the formatting is screwing around though, it's appearing in half page width and some of the style changes are not working at all.

Please keep persevering, the WB will pass.
