Swan-song  by Lady Bluejay 2 Review(s)

Chapter short, yes, but very sweet and to the point. Growing up in Imrahil's household, of course Erchirion would have learned about the customs and manners of their allies and enemies, even if diplomacy was not personally his greatest talent. And imagine what it must have been like for a war-widow with no future prospects besides being the companion to her brother's wife and helping her with any of her future children to have the handsome if rough Gondorian prince save her life and then woo her. And say that he valued her for herself, not just as a brood mare for heirs. I'd say that would be a heady romantic brew for most females. When she was talking to Inayah in the last chapter, Lothy noticed Inayah's eyes sparkling, and what might have been a smile under that veil. And Inayah said they were sisters, now, and, "But it is all right". I think perhaps Amal was looking out for his sister's welfare as much as he could in the limitaions of their culture. As much so as the way most writer's ascribe some foresight for his daughter's potential as well as a union between Gondor and Rohan to Imrahil.

The tough warrior Erchirion as a father? Hmm. This could be good. Lotherial calls him her toughest but most "malleble" brother. Like Amroth, he needs to have a daughter with her mother's big eyes, who can tie him around her little fingers, and attract the kind of young men he once was. Hmm!

Author Reply: Weel, Lothiriel will find out what is in Inayah's mind in the next chapter.

Not sure if its a daughter yet, though! LBJ

*grin* Lothi's going to have fun with that bombshell isn't she? I'm glad Erchi's finally found someone who he's fallen for. And can talk to! I agree with Lothi, him merely talking to her seems slightly alien. This seems to be shaping up to be as cute as all your other love stories. I'm liking Inayah more and more. Hope she can be happy in Dol Amroth, and I'm sure she'll be ecstatic when she learns she pregnant!

Author Reply: Yes, Inayah has a surprise coming to her.

Thanks a lot for reviewing.LBJ
