| Snarky Legolas! Oh my! I don't remember seeing him this snappish before. But it's in italics, so it's from the book! I guess it stands to reason that a Wood Elf would see perching in a tree to sleep perfectly natural (while a Hobbit would not). Must be one of the reasons why the Wood Elves have such a bad reputation among other peoples for being snobbish. Along with their treatment of Bilbo's travelling companions on an earlier journey, to be sure. (And after reading this chapter, I had to go looking for what the New Company might be expected to find while retracing the Fellowship's journey. By the time Faramir Took was travelling with Pippin-lad Gamgee, it seems that Celeborn was already living in Rivendell (I knew that already) and the Golden Wood was abandoned or all but! I wonder if the flets would still be there 26 years after the Quest, or would they be quietly falling to ruin without the Lady's preserving magic...? My "Lothlorien" chapter is not terribly detailed in its present form, and I don't know yet if I'm going to take the easy way out (passing through quickly due to complications that pop up) or not.) Are any of the children afraid of heights? (We were watching a new British detective series tonight, and a suspect said to the detective something like "Don't tell me you're afraid of heights!" And the detective had a clever answer to the effect that nobody had yet proven to him that he shouldn't be afraid of heights!) You've done a skillful job of weaving together the book and film versions of the meeting with Galadriel. It feels seamless. I'm looking forward to reading more! Author Reply: Thanks! You know, I never thought of that! I'm not sure if Dreamflower has, either. I haven't decided if any of the children are afraid of heights. Who knows what kind of shape Lothlorien was in by the time Sam and Rosie's children were being born? No telling! | |
