| I agree with Queen Galadriel, you shouldn't leave us hanging like this! :-) Can't wait to read Erithain's story! I love the pairing of Erithain and Freddy! Waiting patiently as a Took. :-) Idril Author Reply: Hope I haven't left you hanging for too long. Erithain's story is in the next chapter, just posted - phew! Gotta love little Freddy! Hope your tookish patience isn't too exhausted. | |

| Okay, I'm all caught up w/this amazing story. I adore little Freddy and his adoption of Erithain. The image of a dour Ranger w/a Hobbit faunt sharing his saddle...Too adorable!! Also so very happy to see shy and timid Blossom going out of her comfort zone. This trip really could be the making of her. Can't wait to see them all meeting Glorfindel and the Twins!! :o) Author Reply: Blossom will certainly not be the same hobbit when she returns but hopefully she will be changed in a positive way. I suspect Glorfindel will be overwhelming for everyone - unless he uses his own personal dimmer switch! Freddy is rather adorable, isn't he? At least he's amusing the poor Man. Glad you've caught up - I was wondering where you were. There are some names I always look for in the reviews, and you are one of them. | |

| This looks like it is going to be such a fun adventure! I'm so glad Nibs gets to go, and that Blossom's going with him--it will be fun to look at things through their eyes! And little "Fweddy" is just too cute! I can see that he *already* is using that famous Fallohide charm to wrap a certain Ranger around his little finger! Author Reply: I was just wondering where you were! Little Freddy is so cute it's unspeakable! He will be able to wrap everyone round his little finger, I think, even famous Elf-lords and Balrog-slayers. I'm looking forward to seeing the outside world through the eyes of Blossom and Nibs - should be interesting to explore. Glad yo have you aboard for the journey - hope you packed plenty of food. | |

| I'm looking forward to hearing Erithain's story. I'm so glad wee Freddy has befriended him :-) Author Reply: Erithain's tragic story will be revealed in the next chapter, and should open the eyes of hobbits like Nibs and Blosson as to the sacrifices made by the Rangers. Freddy just walk in and demanded that I write him into the tale. He does have a purpose though, befriending the Ranger. Glad you enjoyed and hope you join us on the road to Gondor. | |

| Not fair! Now you *and* Larner have me hanging off a cliff! I don't know if I'll survive this...*grins* I loved the conversation between Isumbrand and Erithain, and needless to say I'm *very* eager to hear Erithain's tale! God bless, Galadriel | |

| Glorfindel clearing out the Barrow-downs – that’s something I’d love to see! But you’re right – who else could do that, if not the legendary Balrog-slayer? Erithain is a nice guy, and I look forward to learn more about him – it seems he has quite a tragedy in his history. Well, I’m sure little Freddy will be very good for him – though the songs he is teaching him may be a bit questionable :-) Oh, and I love the trousers with bells. Great idea! Author Reply: Alas I cannot claim the bells as my idea, enchanting though they are. That marvellous writer of all things hobbity, Grey Wonderer, first wrote that idea into her stories and many of us have picked it up and run with it. Hopefully we will discover Erithain's tragic past in the next chapter. I can just picture Glorfindel clearing the barrows - definitely a sight worth seeing. | |

| The loss of his brother Halbarad, I must suppose? Yes, that would be something to leave him with a residue of grief and possibly a reluctance to visit the site of his grave. Author Reply: Even worse than that, I'm afraid, although no doubt that is part of it. We will learn Erithain's tragic history in the next chapter. | |

| I like seeing the positive outcomes in the north from the War, such as Glorfindel cleansing the barrows, and the reduction of evil in the Old Forest. "I have met Captain Peregrin - and he was certainly very.......amusing and cheerful." "And completely exhausting! When he was small they had to sew bells on his trousers to let them know when he was on the move, otherwise he might have crawled to Gondor! It worked very well - until he learned to remove the trousers!" *grins* | |
