What a wonderful story!! I love all the characterizations, but especially two grown men who are able to see to the needs of a little girl who believes she has seen a ghost! You built it all up perfectly; I knew they'd do something, but not this absolutely perfect ending! :) Thank you so much for sharing such a great tale! Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review and welcome to my stories!I'm delighted you enjoyed the story and the way I portrayed the characters. Your kind comments made my day! | |

All's well that ends well; with a very satisfying conclusion to this fine Halloween story. Aragorn and Faramir thought up a wonderful way to liven up the festivities and exonerate Elbeth without damaging Faramir's own reputation. Eowyn is well-written as a compassionate and fair woman who obviously cares deeply for her niece. Well-done and very atmospheric. Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I'm pleased you enjoyed this and hope it contained the elements you like. | |

I love the relationship between Elbeth and Aragorn; they are very comfortable together, though she reveres him as a great king as well as loving him like an uncle. Nice bit with Faramir helping Aragorn with the ceremonial preparations. Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I enjoy writing scenes for Elbeth and Aragorn. I'm pleased you liked the scene for Faramir and Aragorn.I wanted to show just how comfortable they are together,like father and son. | |

Well, Faramir's in a pickle and poor Elbeth is in the doghouse! The plot is thickening and no one is happy. I hated having to stand still for the dressmaker too when I was a kid; but gowns and most clothes don't fit themselves... Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I remembered my own childhood when writing about Elbeth and the pins. | |

So, that's how Aragorn solved it, then? Nice resolution. And hopefully Elbeth's fears have been eased. Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review.I'm pleased you liked the resloution.I think Elbeth was more indignant than scared,but she is an unusual child! | |

I very much enjoyed this story. P.S. Some malign spirit -- playing tricks on you -- has centered the second chapter! Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I'm delighted you enjoyed the story. Also thank you for telling me about chapter 2.I hope I've fixed it now. | |

Elbeth is a sensible young lady to go to the one person who might have helped IF it really had been a ghost. The conclusion of this promises to be fun! I often think that one of the strengths of having Royalty in Britain is the Pomp and Ceremony which we do so very well. Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. Yes,Elbeth is indeed sensible to go to Aragorn.I hope you will like the conclusion. I agree the royal Pomp and Ceremony is one of BRitain's great strengths. | |
