Edmund is mentioned often but there are few of any background stories of him and Theodyn, so I appreciate this story so much. Thank you enjoyed it very much.

I love this picture of Eomer as sweet and small. I normally think of him as tough and very big, although he is also very young for the responsibility he winds up with, of course. But the sweet, small boy is in there somewhere too.

Author Reply: Thank you Daw, he is of course 'tough and very big', but he had a good grounding in having such loving parents.Eokat.

Ah, that is good, Eomer's bonding with Eowen , I mean. I like his oath that he gives his sister, since it runs through the LotR.
I don't think I've ever mentioned it, but I like the way that this is written, you know, using expresions and their manner of speech in the narration. It makes it fully Rohirric and adds a neat depth.
Glad to hear that there is to be a sequal. Four years into the future, isn't that when Eomund is slayn? (Ugh, I'm too lazy to look it up now.) That'll be sad, espeacially now that you've made Eomer's family so realistic for me.
Oh, well. I must go lay a trap for the Easter Bunny. Happy Easter to you!

Author Reply: Thank you Kitt. I am so glad you enjoyed this. But the sequel will only take Eomer up to eight years old. Eomund was slain when Eomer was eleven, so there may be another yet, once I get my muse for that one. I have already started on the next. Thanks again. Eokat.
