Nice to know that there a few losses and they're beginning to rebuild again.
And thank goodness for Merimac, I was so worried for him.

Author Reply: I was worried for Merimac, too. He's a solid and dependable fellow, and I'm glad not to have to say goodbye to him as of yet.

Thanks so much for reading and taking the time to share your thoughts!

Yay!! Merimac lives!

This was a cute little chapter - glad everyone is feeling well enough to enjoy being doted on by their fiancées! And it’s wonderful to see all the Hobbits of the area come together to rebuild. ❤️

Author Reply: Yay! I really like Merimac. He's such an interesting character; spy, guerrilla fighter, engineer (the term I use for delvers of tunnels and mines and smials), mentor, and more. I was sad that JRRT included his death date in the Family Trees, even though it saved my bacon as I was writing one of my stories that he appeared in. (I almost wrote myself into a corner, actually. Maybe my brain had noted that death date before I even began writing that story? I can't account for it.)

You've mentioned a couple of the reasons in my long list of why I love hobbits...

Thanks for reading and stopping to share your thoughts! (I'll be returning to your young Estel story in a day or two; I had to get over the elder Dorhaur's death. You've made him so real to me!)
