this was an excellent tie-in to the whole idea of the sealonging, how it works, & how Legolas was able to fight it. Fantastic story!

terrific! I loved this insight into how the onset of sea-longing could have been. And great job coming up with that word for it - i was fooled into thinking it was canon! I liked how Gimli interacted with Legolas, even covering for him - if poorly. "He fell off his horse!" LOL I loved Legolas's indignation at that. And then...
"Should I have said you fell out of a tree?" the dwarf answered. [LOL too much!]
"You should have said nothing."
"But you were doing that so well yourself." [Gimli's on a roll!]
LOL!!!!!!!!!

Terrific, I have to say again. I'm very pleased with the little I've read of your work, and I've also seen much praise for it by other authors, so I'm looking forward to goign through all your stories!

You certainly have an affinity with the elves, and your portrayal of Legolas' first experience of sea-longing is beautifully crafted. You write with incredible passion adn understanding of the characters, and your work is a joy to read.

Great gap filler, Ithilien. I enjoyed every bit of it.
