| An endearing glimpse of Aragorn the unwilling statesman. :) Sacrifices must be made by all. "And Gimli is still choking on his beer." Haha! A great story overall ~ *They're calling me for dinner!* Author Reply: Coriel, Thank you for wading through to the end and taking the time to review. Acceptance and contentment- it is good to know that they could all find that in the end. Helen | |

| This was a moving picture of people after the adventures are over and daily life has to be lived with all its duties. Rewards and joys too, of course, but also a sense of loss for what they all had before they went through the fire together. I've always thought that LOTR had a melancholy tone to it overall, that there wasn't really a happy ending as we usually think of one. This tale caught that mixture of sadness and satisfaction nicely. Well done. Author Reply: Thank you, Yes, just about everbody had to lose something or someone in the struggle for victory. I feel quite lost now that this story has come to an end! Many thanks. Helen | |
