The gardens are delightful! I'm so happy you gave Haldir his mallorn trees...I have always found his wistful remark in LOTR so touching. You do a nice job with Sam's "voice." Author Reply: Thank you! It's true that Haldir is barely involved in this tale, but I couldn't resist giving him his mallorns... I too have always found that passage to be one of the most wistful and beautiful in LOTR. I'm glad you like Sam's 'voice'. It is very fun to write. ;) And thank you again for your lovely comments! | |

Very sweet. I don't know that the Hobbits, limited as they were to the Isle of Elvenhome, could have come to the Elven Lorien, which I believe was on Aman proper, but I love the idea. Author Reply: Thank you for the lovely comment! I don't think Tolkien ever *exactly* said that the hobbits were limited to Tol Eressea, so I stretched it a bit, and sent them to Valinor itself. :) It just seemed to work, especially since Galadriel and Gandalf were originally from Aman proper, so I thought the ship could make only one stop rather than two. ;) Glad you like the idea! | |

Very lovely writing here. I can see it right before me, feels like I'm there. Can almost smell it! Looking forward to the next part! Armariel~~~{~@ Author Reply: Thank you! I had this lovely image of Irmo's gardens in my head, and it was very difficult to express it. I'm glad it came out well! | |
