| This must have been really hard for Finrod to keep a conversation with Celeborn about romance, especially since it probably reminded him of Amarie, his own love, who did not follow him into Exile... It is good that you gave Celeborn someone to talk to over his problems with Nerwen. It's even better that it is Finrod because Tolkien mentioned somewhere that of all her brothers Finrod was/is her favourite. This has to be one of my fav chapters in the story. Namarie! | |

| I am speechless over this one. Galadriel's reaction and the prejudices of the Noldor/Sindar are perfectly depicted. What a tense chapter. Poor Celeborn! | |

| Here is just what makes your stories so darn good. :) This detail is amazing! I manage to scrape up enough to put on a page, but I really don't know the first thing about fishing (much less cooking it afterward), weaving, swordplay, or the many singular attributes of different kinds of wood! Did you know all this already, or did you do a bit of research first? I wish we had better libraries around here. Your metaphors are brilliant, by the way. But poor Celeborn doesn't seem to be given yet the regard he deserves as one of those who came "near to match the Calaquendi of the Blessed Realm." (PS, I'm really starting to wonder about this, since we both independently gave Eldarion's son the same name, AND gave Celeborn and Thranduil the same particular eyes. And it is not as though dark evergreen was a popular color in Tolkien. More than coincidence, perhaps? ^_^ Or is it just that Providence has a sense of humor?) | |
