| What a wonderful story this has been! I will miss it, and think it would have been a fascinating addendum to the "real" story. Author Reply: Thank you! That is a nice thought - to have this story tucked away in the Appendices somewhere. After all, Aragorn and Arwen got their little extra bit, so why not Frodo? | |

| Great concluding chapter (and an epilogue to look forward to!). I like the fact that Frodo can pass his healing on to another. That seems right. Author Reply: It seemed right to me too, and completely in character for Frodo, I think. And it is that contrast - between the depressed and completely self-absorbed Frodo, and the healing, outward-looking, more "normal" (but with new understanding) Frodo that I wanted to also highlight. | |

| I am glad that Frodo chose Merry - not entirely sure I could articulate why, but it seemed fitting. Perhaps it is because Merry had been injured by Shadow physically as well. I think it is fun that Sam was miffed at Aragorn, but I like that Frodo told him to let it go. That is a good sign that he has. Very nice. Glad Frodo went and spoke to the injured captain. Helping others is extremely good therapy. Glad for an epilogue, and then I do hope you will write something else. Author Reply: I was rather fond of the miffed Sam, myself. But he's too honest a hobbit to completely gloss over Frodo's faults... I'm working on that epilogue, but it's being very stubborn at the moment. Grr. | |
