A fascinating chapter. I liked the air of mystery.

Loved the incorporation of "The Last Ship" into the story. What is going to happen to Ivriniel now?

Author Reply: You'll have to wait and see. *g*
Actually, the wait won't be too long, as Chapter 5 has just come back from my wonderful beta. I'll try to post it tomorrow.

Hi Soledad,I am have to say very interested in this Lirillo. Since the chapter is titled Ulmo's Well, one has to believe that it was Ulmo him self,that spoke to our princess. (How many points do I get if I'm right.) Loving the story,can't wait for the next chapter.LOL Galathil


Author Reply: You can learn more about Lirillo in "The Vault of the Dead". He's not Ulmo himself, but the two used to be close. Telling more would be, well, telling. *g*
The next chapter will take a little longer, I'm afraid, as I'm busy researching Númenórean (and generally medieval) ships for it at the moment.

While trying to find out who Lirillo is, I stumbled over a lot of other stories from you I hadn't read and got sidetracked *g*. I still don't know, but I think I got the idea.
Now the pieces are set. It seems the search for Ivriniel will be a long one, since Denethor and Finduilas will not be wed for a good long time. Ivriniel might get more adventure than she bargained for, and she surely will have to use all the strength she possesses to get out of this. Maybe home will not be so boring after this experience...

Author Reply: Oh, Ivriniel will definitely have lots of adventure, but I'm sure she's up to it. *g*
And coming home will take longer than anyone would expect, I'm afraid.

Hmm... I may be mistaken, but it seems that more than one power is at work here. I doubt if Lirillo is in the pay of the Umbari. And if Finduilas marrying Denethor is depended on him finding her sister and we know they don't marry for another 6 years, that's a long time for him to be searching. *grin* Love Imrahil's remark at the end. Cheeky little blighter.

Author Reply: Yes, definitely more than one power at work. Lirillo and his brethren have their own ideas about the good of Middle-earth, and while they mind it well, their plan might not always match the other plans that are in the making.

Imrahil is cheeky indeed, but that's teenagers for you. As for Finduilas' marriage depending on Ivriniel's fate... we'll see. ;)
