I do love this image - Elrond on an annual voyage to see how his family fare; a voyage his father has made for Ages past, watching with both joy and sorrow the changes in the families of HIS two sons.

I very much like the idea that Elrond found this unique way to have a look at his and his father's descendants once in a while.

And I particularly like it that those descendants are also found in lands that were formerly supporting the enemy (necessarily).

The World has changed!

Author Reply: I'm glad that Mirach's vision of Elrond sailing once a year with his father struck me this way. Am so glad others enjoy this, too. Thanks so, Andrea!

I really liked this one. The mental image of Elrond flying in Vingilot with Earendil is charming, and it must comfort him greatly to see the flourishing of what he had to leave behind.

And I still hope that his sons do eventually follow him across the Sea.

Author Reply: I love to think that in time Elladan and Elrohir did choose to follow their father--to lose one or both of them as well as his daughter and brother would have been too much, I think. And I'm glad for the image Mirach has given us of Elrond sailing once a year with his father and the both of them watching over the descendants of Earendil and Elwing remaining in the Mortal Lands. Thanks so, Rhyselle!

Neat idea!

Author Reply: I'm so glad you find it so, Armariel. Thanks!

Rather like Abraham counting the stars. *grin* And only once a year. One has to wonder on what date and what its significance might be for either or both Elrond and Eärendil. An interesting little scene, Larner, with much to think on. Thanks.

Author Reply: Look to the last chapter of Mirach's "Hope of a Star" to learn that, Fiondil. Had to do a comment on that!
