It is both sad and wonderful that so many of the king's family put themselves out in defense of the realm. They do not opt for safety or security, but how painful that must be for the king!

And of course Glorfindel would protect the young warriors. *note to self - check to see if Glorfy has found out new password to computer*

I was struck by your explanation of how Thranduil was connected to the forest when he became king. It was very plausible and you could see how he simultaneously gained and lost by it. And then the chill that shadow brings was very well described. It made sense that the Elves wanted their arrows neat. I feel that way about my surroundings when I am upset and, in this case, weapons are especially important.

Wow. The comparison of warriors to wolves, birds and trees was terrific. It is so fitting and I never would have thought of that in a million years.
