This was beautiful, especially the last chapter, even though it contains by far too many dead hobbits. I love how Pippin convinces Merry to go to Gondor... it is nice to see how their relationship changes through the three chapters, and Pippin becomes more and more the leader of the two. Greetings, Nienor Author Reply: Belated greetings, Nienor. I saw this just now, while checking something. Many thanks for your thoughtfulness in leaving a review for each story you read. | |

Ever onward. That is so poignant for some reason. *wipes eyes* Oh, this really got me crying: Estella's death, the seremony in Tookland, the end... I say, you and Larner just have an amazing nack for making simple things so poignant as to be heartbreaking, and saying so much in few words. God bless, Galadriel Author Reply: Ah yes, it even brings tears to my eyes, and that doesn't often happen, considering I know ahead all that is to happen. Thanks so much for brightening my day with your comments. Author Reply: Goodness I sounded so omniscient just now, but I really meant "since I know all that is to happen in the story I'm writing". They're always outlined ahead of time, as you may know. I couldn't write without knowing the outcome; it's too easy to hit a brick wall or lose myself amongst the plot threads... | |

One of the things that makes LOTR so much fun to play with is all the loose ends. But it also makes it sad, because nothing stops at the 'happy ever after'. Instead there is always the 'what if'. I hate picturing Merry and Pippin leaving their families and all their dead kin and going off to Rohan and Gondor to await their own deaths. And of course, that's not the end either, because there are no ends. Beautiful story. Need to go and find a tissue. | |
