I really enjoyed this, Rhyselle. Nice to see Ingwë a bit vulnerable. Lovely.

Author Reply: I'm late in responding as usual, but I wanted to thank you for letting me know you liked it. It's so easy to think of these characters as we see them in final form and forget that once they were naive and uncertain of their lives' paths.

Yes. I can see this.

An interesting look at an aspect of Elvish history few attempt to write about. Knowing the Ingwë of my own Elf, Interrupted stories, it's interesting to see him at an earlier, younger stage of his life and seeing the seeds of greatness that will make him the great king that he is begin to germinate. Good job, Rhyselle, and we look forward to seeing more of Ingwë and the other Elves as they make the Great Journey to Aman.

Author Reply: I'm very glad that you liked it. I was kind of surprised to find it in my head, but am grateful that the muse provided it. In regards to the Great Journey story, it appears to be growing like kudzu. Every time I work on my existing storyline set at the end of the Journey, I'm getting bombarded with mental images of what happened right before the elves set out and during the centuries long trip.

I oughtn't complain. It's better than writer's block! *Grin*

Absolutely brilliant I tell you *grin* I love Ingwe here, I do I do I do. I can't wait to see how more of the Great Journey comes to be!!! *hugs Rhyselle*

More?

Author Reply: I'm very glad you liked it. It's not often that I can actually have a drabble tell a story within itself about a character instead of being a mood piece, so I'm particularly pleased with this one.

Oh, the muse has more in mind, and I'm going to indulge her eventually, but I have to finish my talk for church tomorrow first... The topic is repentance and I'm sure that I'll get a lot of fic fodder from that too...
