Awesome chapter! As usual. And I really love your dialogue, btw.

Hi!
I just finished this 3-part story while being locked down, so thank you for writing it. I've always loved the Elvenking, so it was a pleasure to see him throughout the ages and not merely the third one. He has become a really powerful sovereign and I really like how you portray him.

I was really saddened by the death of Lindoriel, but I suppose that makes Thranduil stronger and eager to fight the evil of Sauron.

Please, keep up with the good writing. I can't wait to read the next chapter.

Please continue this story as well as Swan song, theyre both geniusly written and much care is put in charachters as well as the environs. Some of the best I have seen in fanfic! Much love from Sweden

I really miss your updates.

Author Reply: Sorry! :( I have been thinking about all of you as I try to drum up another few updates, but both chapters-in-progress involve complicated battles so I've been brushing up my battlefield tactics with lots of internet research! They're coming, I promise. :)

Conquistadora,

I am so glad that you have begun to upload again. I read all three parts of "We Were Young Once" for the first time last year, and I am planning on reading them again this year. Thanks for your amazing contributions to the world of Tolkien fan fiction!

I know that this is a rough time for everyone with Christopher Tolkien's death, but stories like the ones that you write have helped me through that. May we all be united because of this wonderous and magical world that J.R.R. Tolien created.

With blessings from America,
Lanya

Every time I think this story can't be better you prove me I am wrong!!! You made
me feel like nothing else mattered but reading this story! I am with Thranduil in healing Halls and watch him help the ill. What happens to the boy and a father? Will any dragons appear? Excellent characters, loads of action and a deep well developed world I do not want to leave. Read this chapter during my break as waiting for going home seemed like ages to me:D.

Author Reply: So glad you enjoyed it! I was thinking of you when I was finishing it up last night. :D
