| Oh, wow! You just amaze me with this story. The conversations between Elrond and Iluvatar especially struck me here. Elrond¡¦s cry is that of any of us children of God when we think we can¡¦t bear any more, when we¡¦re almost indignant because we think we and those dearest to us have had enough suffering for one lifetime: ¡§Why? Why! I don¡¦t understand and it isn¡¦t fair!¡¨ I look forward to Elrond¡¦s observance of the rest of this journey, to the very finish, I hope. Pretty please? ƒº God bless, Galadriel Author Reply: Hantanyel, ammelda! I think I've had Help with this story, if you know what I mean. :) As far as continuing it to the end, your wish is granted, my lady. :) *bows* Namarie, God bless, Melinyel, Your humble servant, Antane :) | |

| I want him closer to Me, though that too will be his choice. Yes, every step of our way is by our own will but is used to God's good purpose. I love that this is as much about Elrond's journey of Faith as Frodo's. Author Reply: Hantanyel, my dear harrowcat! Since I've done a couple stories about Frodo finding faith, I thought it would be interesting to do one about someone who has had it so long but it can still be tested. I just watched the other day Lord of the Bean, one of the Veggie Tales that is a kid's animated series - do you have those across the pond? It doesn't follow the story too much, though it does have a sweet scene of Toto Baggypants and Randalf lifted right from the beginning of the Fellowship movie - You're late and the bursting out in laughter from the two. I love Toto and Grumpy (Gimli) but there's no Sam! Still it is still a very good story in its own right. After it's over, there's a quote from Ephesians 2:10 - "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." I thought of that when I read your review. Namarie, God bless, Antane :) | |

| And Frodo begins to consider the gift, and his heart is prepared to accept it. Author Reply: I wonder when he actually decided upon it? He is given time to wrap his heart and will around another sacrifice and find in time that it is truly a gift, a reward in measure to the sacrifices he had already made. Namarie, God bless, Antane :) | |
