Finally got a chance to start reading this. Great story so far. I'm right at the edge of my seat wondering what's going to happen next and wondering how the men were able to do what they did without anyone being the wiser and everyone getting injured or lost! Looking forward to the next chapter and the next chapter after that and... well, you get the picture. *grin*

I am ashamed to admit I have been a "lurker" recently, not a reviewer. I have been following this story, tho. It is very different to see Elrond portrayed as being the one in need of aid, instead of always the all-confident healer of others. So, Grandma and Grandpa to help, perhaps? Again, it is fascinating to see a scene in which she is not all-knowing and all powerful! And she asks "the young prince" to help her? This does get interesting. Depending on whose commentary you read, Legolas is either suppossed to be no any older than the twins and Arwen, or up to half a thousand years or so younger. I am sure that at this point, "young" Legolas is indeed wondering how he could help the Aman born Queen of the Golden Wood. In my opinion, he was chosen for the Fellowship because he had the openness and acceptance of youth. He embraced new experiences and people. Perhaps this openness can help him to reach his friends in places even She can not? I will be watching to see what you do next!

Author Reply: Hello demeter d, I´m glad you have become a reviewer on my story and appreciate your thoughtful comments very much. Yes, I´m sure it is a bit disturbing to see Elrond in need but even he is as vulnerable as all others. This is the important lesson all family members forgett from time to time and have to lear here. And yes, I agree with you that Legolas was choosen because of his youth. He is often portrayed as the young, the unexperienced but I think he´s the one who can make the difference and this will be his role in my story. Anyway I´m glad you like what I write and hope to see you at my next chapters. Thank you so very much. Lai
