OH THANK YOU!!!! I was so sad when Ecthelion went away and I thought I would never see som of my fave stories ever again, this being one of them! But it's HERE!!!! I'm so glad! I hope you update with newer chapters soon!!!

Author Reply: LOL! Suilad Unurith! Yes, I was also so very sad that Ecthelion was removed, but I agreed with Maggie's decision and respect it. I run two gaming fiction fansites and it is a great deal of work (of which took away my LOTR writing time). I also owe her a great deal - allowing me to post there when I could.

And yes, I am working on newer chapters. Hope you continue to enjoy.

oh, wow! This story rocks!! (are you basing a lot of the previous friendship betwwen aragorn & legolas on Cassia & Siobhan's Mellon Chronicles? I think i cought a few references, but i'm not sure . . . ) your writing is wonderful, the little outakes-scenes that we never hear much of (the fellowship's interactions during their journey - Ie, Boromir & legolas conversation) are wonderful. I love this story! Keep it up, and post soon, please??

Author Reply: For the first question, yes, I am. Being a huge fan of the Mellon Chronicles Website, I had to write something for it, and posted Departures on their site originally. I also began an older adventure (which I am remiss at finishing) which also uses their characters and happenings in the earlier relationship between our fav Ranger and Elf. If I can drag it back out, I'll more than likely post it here.

I'm glad you enjoy the out-takes. There are some references in Tolkien's work, but not nearly enough for me. I hope to keep posting here regularly. Wish me luck!

I like this very much.
I like anything that paints Arwen and Aragorn in a good way. Legolas is such a loyal friend. A fine interlude.

A very nice gap-filler! Thank you. I have always felt that Legolas and Arwen were friends, just as much as he was with Aragorn and the twins. It seems right that he'd promise her to look after Aragorn, but I like the touch about not letting the ring get him.

I've seen a clip for that final scene with Legolas and Arwen, but sadly it never made it even into the EE. It would have been nice to see properly.

Author Reply: Thanks Jay! It was that very clip that started this entire retelling. Hope I can keep it up.
