| My Oaths I Will Keep by Encaitariel | 2 Review(s) |

| The whole story has been written with gentleness and empathy. I rejoice that Finrod remained faithful also to Gildor's own father, and that Gildor was in the end able to go to the Undying Lands and find his peace, and be reunited with the one who served as his foster father as well as, it is to be hoped, his true father as well. How proud both were of him, and with reason, of course. | |

| I have read this tale in full and found it to be written beautifully. Gildor is my absolute favorite Elf in all of Midle Earth and I love the way you have portrayed him. Finrod is elegant and regal. He is my favorite Elven King. Lindan is truly a character that is a highlight of this story. Anyway, I guess I really like this and it is a 'keeper'. :D Hugs, Neilia Author Reply: Hello, Neilia, Sorry for getting back to you so late. Thank you very much for leaving a review, and for your praise. Lindan is a character which I really enjoy writing for, so I am glad that you liked him. And I agree with you on Finrod. While this particular story is within my "Gildor as foster-son of Finrod" continuity, and is indeed centered around him, the story was built around Finrod. I wanted him to be the heart of it, seeing as it is his last appearance in this continuity (at least for a very long, long time). The scene in the Great Hall was the first thing I wrote, and everything built off of that. So, thanks, again, very much for the review, and for the "keeping". ;) -Encaitariel | |
