I take it his son was Eol, who took Aredhel to wife. I hope Aracano doesn't find the rest of this council too boring! Author Reply: Who know, who knows... *mysterious smile* | |

Hi Soledad:I am throughly enjoying this story.To read about Celebrain when she sailed is great.Thank you can't wait for the next chapter.LOL Galathil Author Reply: Celebrían is a seriously underwritten character. And even if she does show up, she's portrayed as a bloodless wallflower, which I can't understand. She is the daughter of Celebrorn and Galadriel, how could she *possibly* be a weakling? Alone the fact that she survived what had happened to her in the Orcs' den shows incredible strength, IMO. I'm glad you like the story, thanks for taking the time to review. | |

A most interesting chapter, Soledad. I'm with Aracáno, I want to hear more of the old tales. I noticed that you spell Gimilî as Gimli a couple of times (and that's how the name appears in BOLT2, but I couldn't find Endero and you never did say just who he was, unless you're reserving that for another chapter. Arafinwë was so cool when he diplomatically over-rode Aranwë's imperious dismissal of the Sinda. I really liked that. Those Noldor are too uppity for their own good. *grin* Author Reply: Hi Fiondil, I'm glad you like the new chapter. Gimilî and Gimli are basically the "older" and more "modern" version of the same name in my imagination, so they are basically interchangeable. I use the "modern" version sometimes when other, less conservative Elves address the ancient one - save for the cases when I simply cannot type. *g* More old tales will be told eventually, I promise. As for Endero, his identity is saved for another tale, unless the characters force me to reveal it earlier. And yes, the Noldor are too haughty sometimes. Even Aranwë, who ought to know better, having lived in Gondolin and all that. Thanks for the support. It's greatly appreciated. | |

You're making me want to read the Book of Lost Tales again... What a fascinating new character in Gimilî! I'm with Aracáno - I want to hear more stories about the ancient times from him. I hope we'll get to hear some more from Gilfanon, at least? And it was really nice seeing things from Aracáno's pov too - you really captured the frustration he must feel at being nearly ignored in favour of his brothers by most. I also really enjoyed guessing which character you (or Gimilî, rather) were talking about with the old names! I'm looking forward to the next chapter! :) Author Reply: Hello and welcome back! I'm glad you're warming up to Aracáno - I've really grown fond of the poor, simple Elf in a family full of legendary heroes. It must be hard on him. I promise that there will be another visit to Gilfanon's house and lots of old tales will be told. But first Celebrían must visit her old friends in town. Old names are fun, aren't they? It's good that some of them got rejected, but picking them up again is entertaining. Thanks for taking the time to review. It makes my day every time, and I cherish your comments. :) | |
