Simply lovely. I am glad they have both come through this, relatively unscathed. It is nice that they realized each others faults and accepted them them. Looking forward to the next one with baited breath. Eokat.

Ah, lovely. I am so glad that these two have decided to simply love one another.

I liked the idea of Lothiriel forgiving herself. Sometimes I have remind myself not to speak more harshly to myself than I would to anyone else.

I'm glad to see that they have made it up and are now betrothed. I hope they make it to the wedding without any other disasters. They have both grown up a lot over the last year - and to my mind, stand a much better chance of having a successful marriage.

Looking forward to the next chapter.

Oh that's promising. I really don't see why these two shouldn't make one another happy if they can. Life is much too short to waste in silly fears.

Wonderful chapter as usual. I loved the drenching, the mud bath and both riding Fleetfoot. And now Eomer rides to Imrahil, that should be interesting. Looking forward to the next one. Eokat.

What a wonderful way to let them gradually approach one another again! I really enjoyed reading their letters and I thought what you wrote about them rang true. They became friends again and so the way is cleared for love.

This was a lovely chapter, beautifully written. I love the letters written between Eomer and Lothiriel. When I initially read of Lothiriel's deception, I was not pleased with this plot device because it was so out of character for her in my mind. More out of character was Imrahil's participation in the deception. But you have brought it full circle revealing Lothiriel to not be a perfect human being despite her training and upbringing as a noble.

The one lesson I take from this chapter is that there is always room for forgiveness and the reforging of relationships despite hurts of the past. I don't know if you realize that lesson is within your chapter here. It is a great gift. :)

Melyanna, your writing is wonderful and I only wish you could tell me this world of Middle Earth with Eomer, Lothiriel, Eowyn and Faramir was but one step away to walk into. But it is through your writing that a person such as myself can enjoy Middle Earth beyond the movies and the books...especially Eomer and Lothiriel's lives together. For that I thank you!

You mentioned in your notes you are writing the last chapters. Does that mean you will conclude this portion of Eomer and Lothiriel's relationship? Will you continue to write more of their lives together? I hope so. I don't want it to end and I am sure your other fans would have the same sentiment...

Looking forward to the next chapter. Namarie.

This is a much better basis for a relationship between them really. They have learned to know each other - both when light-hearted and when under pressure. Lothiriel has shown strength and resolution and Eomer has displayed kindness and generosity.

Twins! Called after the periannath - it's no wonder Pippin reciprocated with Faramir. I'm sure Merry will have had an Eowyn, too.

Can't wait to see how Eomer and Lothiriel resolve their differences!
