This is just lovely! Not only do you continue with the beautiful archaic style of yours that I love, but you've succeeded in creating in Tamin one of those old-fashioned child-heroes who are filled with goodness and enthusiasm--I'm much reminded of Hodgson-Burnett--and yet there is just enough scamp in him to keep him from being cloying. And Bandy, well, Bandy continues to delight me. I loved the way he and Legolas were struggling towards finding more equal forms of address--it's not an easy thing to just make a change like that! And I'm quite taken with the little white horse. What a personality! | |

This story is so refreshing! I'm in awe at the amount of knowledge that you display. This chapter was an absolute pleasure. The imagery and descriptions of Legolas's domain were beautiful and clear. I very much enjoyed watching Tamin with his horse. The wordiness is not overdone or stale but is vibrant and full of activity, smells, and sounds. I cannot wait to see how you develop your plot. Eagerly looking forward to the next chapter. Author Reply: Thank you, Emily! I'm glad you enjoy the way I'm writing this story. It gets cumbersome at times, but then I just re-read Ivanhoe and it all comes flooding back! | |

Aw, Elrohir has left the building...too bad. Tamin and his adorableness completely make up for it. Another cute chapter. Haha Legolas was so concerned about Tamin and Aravel/Isilme :P I love it, can't wait for more! Author Reply: Thank you, Becky! Yes, Tamin is almost too sweet, isn't he? | |

It is great to have a new story from you. I’m enjoying every chapter and Tamin is delightful. I hope that you are back with the romantic story that you promise us last time (please, please!). I see that Durfinwen is not there, she is away in Thranduil’s court? Hm... I just hope that she is not in the party that goes missing. Well, it will be romantic to have a Knight rescuing a maiden in distress...I know, I’m creating my own fanfic… Keep writing and good job. Thanks, Fantasia Author Reply: Thank you, Fantasia ... well, if you're "creating your own fanfic," why not write it? That's what I do! | |

I love Tamin :) What a cutie and now he has Isilme. I cannot wait to read more Author Reply: Thank you, Candiss! I love Tamin too ... his dialog is almost ... almost as fun to write as Bandobras! | |

I thoroughly enjoyed this chapter, and all the horsey information! So subtle yet you have the elves working with the horses in the way that speaks their language, and I just love that! Tamin is such a great character. I so love Bandobras, too, but Tamin is just... *grabs elfling and hugs him* DELIGHTFUL! *grin* Loved the white horse being compared to Araval. LOL! And Tamin's crush on Andunie and Durfinwen is adorable. I will continue to pester you that Durfinwen would make a fabulous Lady of Dol Galenehtar. *grin* We haven't even seen her yet in this story, have we? And Legolas' practical take on love. Well, he's come a long way and seems to have lost some of his cynicism and holds great wisdom on the matter now, for all he wants nothing to do with it. I look forward to seeing more of Tamin and Isilme bond. The little white horse reminds me so much of a Norwegian we had in our barn once. So easy going and oh, his trot was horrid! But his canter was beautiful and he just glided over the ground. Bandobras just made this chapter for me. I am enjoying seeing him all grown up. His lines are classic as always, but in a much more mature manner, as should be expected. I hope Fastred and Leodwyn eventually work through their differences so they can at least be friends once more. Young love...sighs. Such stupidity. LOL! I hope Tamin learns a lot by watching his friends attempts. Thanks for another wonderful chapter. As always, I look forward to more! | |
