Arafinwë certainly got an earful from the villagers. Loved the whole incident with the baker. That was too precious. And his guards. Poor ellyn having people disrespect them because they made the hard choice to remain behind to help protect the Queen while their fellows went off to fight, and most likely to die. It couldn't have been an easy decision on their part. I'm glad Arafinwë showed them that they were worthy and should not be ashamed of their decisions. And now Eärwen shows up out of the blue! This should be an interesting conversation. ;-) Author Reply: I am sure those villagers had quite a bit to tell him. I don't think he was ready to hear such things though before he went away to the war. He definitely returned a changed ellon. I really like the baker. She was fun. this excursion out to the villages raised Arafinwe in the esteem of his people and his guards and I know that neither group expected such a thing of their king. Yes, the conversation with Earwen will indeed be interesting... Thanks for reading and reviewing! I appreciate it very much! | |

A well needed visit to those who needed to know he DOES understand, and who need to know he lives his words and work. As for Earwen awaiting him in his sitting room--that IS a (hopefully) heartening surprise! Author Reply: He has a far greater understanding of his subjects now than he ever had before and he has a great empathy with them which it seemed he previously lacked. I think his experiences will make him a better king. As for Earwen being there, that certainly is a surprise for him! we will have to wait until next week to see what kind of a surprise it is for him. You know, I have wondered if he will clean up the mess he made or if he will make the servants do it. Author Reply: I got interrupted by the dogs needing to be let outside and forgot to thank you for reading and reviewing, so, thank you! | |
