It must be quite disconcerting for Frodo to be surrounded by so many step-children and step-grandchildren! He has as many as Sam, one way or another. And quite a lot of them are rather interested in the whole concept of becoming landish! I'm not surprised Raven is quite stressed - but time with her brother will do her good. And Findemaxa is growing - in maturity and talent! Author Reply: I bet they'll grow on him pretty quickly, however...and he might not want to let them go when their visit is over! I dare say their observations of "landish" folk who are very close and loving and happy is making an impression on them. A longgggg time ago I saw a very old movie in which an angel came to earth and helped a young couple who were very much in love, and ended up envying mortals himself. Although, no, he didn't become one, just ended up going back to heaven sooner than scheduled. Yes, I figured Raven might be suffering some aftershock after her revelations of the previous night, but yes, the time will do them both good and she will be immensely cheered and inspired knowing she helped her art teacher find her true calling. And that it's her own mother who'll be giving Findemaxa her makeover:D ~~~{~@ | |

What a wonderful visit! Your sea-folk are enchanting, and very credibly a *different* people from elves or hobbits or anyone else. Author Reply: Why, thank you Dearie! *blushing* I'm glad my sea-folk work for you. I suppose they are partly my own invention and partly deriving from folklore, in which they are often drawn to land-folk, usually fatally. It was a challenge not to make them seem like little elves or small humans, but rather a bit faery-like, a little dangerous, magical and somehow unique. Well, I guess Frodo has ended up with the most unusual family in hobbit history! lol ~~~{~@ | |

I rejoice to see Frodo as father and grandfather, and to such a brood! The twins do sound delightful, and I, too, would have difficulty not picking up and cherishing little Onyx. Author Reply: Onyx may come to like it soon...yes, who wouldn't want to pick up a child one foot tall?:D I'm betting Frodo will have a hard time letting the brood go back to the sea, as will I--might be a trifle dull around the place without them! I'm especially enjoying the twins also. Being a grandpa has got to suit Frodo to a T. Who'd have thought he would beat Sam to it? Thanks for the FB! ~~~{~@ | |
