| "He was very, very old for his kind, and tired, and his beard lay on his breast like a blanket of snow. ...He has left me, but I cannot begrudge him his rest." I think this is a beautifully written portrayal of grief tempered by compassion. One can imagine Legolas tending to Gimli through his decline with patience and love. "Tomorrow the sun will rise, I will walk on the white sand as I shall for countless ages to come, and the cold sea will foam over my feet. How shall I feel it for the greater, colder pain under my heart? Tomorrow Elbereth's countless stars will shine bright above me. How shall I see them for the tears in my eyes?" Again, beautiful words expressing strong emotion, and they flow so gently. Just lovely. ~TF | |

| Yes, you have been angsty, haven't you? Poor Legolas. | |

| This was beautiful. It conveys deep sentiment with dignity in a simple,lyrical, heartfelt way. Lovely. ~TF Author Reply: Thank you so much! This was my first attempt at something like this, and man, drabbles (even a double-drabble that gives a bit more slack,) are harder than they look. I'm glad you liked it. | |
