Earendil's cry is one that many have echoes through the ages. Dare we hope that rescue is coming?

Oh at last! Hooray for the sons of Elrond! May they find his swiftly.

Earendil's impatience with the Valar and with his son would seen very understandable at this point.





Author Reply: Hm-hm... We'll see how swiftly (and if at all) they find him...

I'm glad that you can understand Earendil - the clouds shielding his sight and the uncertainty were just too much...

Oh how I feel for Eärendil - he sounds so angry with his lot - and just now I don't blame him for raging at the Valar.

I do hope the twins get to Aragorn soon. Although I wouldn't be surprised if one of the Istari got there first...

Author Reply: I'm glad that you don't blame him, he might be a star and immortal, but in the heart, he is still a Man...

And we'll see who gets to Aragorn first ;)

I don't know but what I like this chapter best of all so far! Earendil's anguished prayers and then anger at the Valar are such believable reactions to what he's going through. The frustration at the clouds that refuse to part, and then the anger again at the lights of Rivendell that remind him briefly of the detachment of the Valar... that too makes sense that he would be angry with Elrond. Ah but then it's so good to see that when he looks closer, Rivendell... and Elrond... are *not* so detached after all, and that help is on the way in the form of Elladan and Elrohir. I loved that most of all.

Author Reply: Thank you very much! I'm glad that you find Earendil's reaction believable, the clouds (that he wished for a few days ago) and the uncertainty are almost driving him mad, poor Mariner!
