Journey's End  by Nilmandra 1 Review(s)
rgbjReviewed Chapter: 3 on 1/15/2004
The little prince was just worn to the nub and loved every second.
Elumeril feeling left out. She is in a large family lacking a mother and a new baby has taken her place. Too much emotional upheaval and changes. No one can fix this only time and love.
So nice to see good King Thranduil guide his family to solve a sibling's problem. He is a wonderful adar to encourage all of them to get involved without placing blame on anyone.
Legolas' first temper tantrum. Mark this day in red on the calendar. Adar having brought up six other elflings recognizes the burgeoning signs of temper and does such a good job of short circuiting it. He is a very strong elf and he uses that strength to help his younglings to be happy in their growing up years by setting good parameters for their behavior. They will be very good strong elves in their turn. And Tathiel can be relieved of the burden of Legolas' behavior. She has someone to depend on now, she is not alone.
Very nice chapter. It is nice to see all of them settling in without the huge problems they had in your first story. There has to be some tension and in family life you can't escape tension.
