Imrahil's Daughters  by Lialathuveril 7 Review(s)
obsidianjReviewed Chapter: 6 on 1/1/2013
The web gets more and more tangled. Lothiriel never stands a chance. She is falling for Eomer and he for her. They both seem to have an "official" and an "unofficial" persona. I liked the belt with the bees.

Author Reply: It's a shame they're not both twins, then they could match up their two cold and fiery personas. A double wedding ;-)

She's falling for him inspite of herself. Lovely! Now to see how she comes to realize that... I have this image of everything going wildly pear shaped when Eomer goes to Imrahil to ask for Gliwen's hand - can't wait to see what you have planned. :-)

Author Reply: Hello Lyana,
oh yes, she's definitely falling for him - and he for her. It could all be so simple really, if it weren't for evil authors ;-) More soon, though it will take a while to resolve the situation.

Thanks for reviewing!

I love that the attempt to turn him off via the local specialties didn't work. The belt sounds lovely, and completely proper to her. As for the fudging of the reason for the honey-moon--how temperate he tries to keep his language! Heh! And she just keeps digging herself in deeper and deeper! Poor thing!

Author Reply: Hello Larner,
I did once write a oneshot where Amrothos serves Eomer octopus cooked in its own ink (a Spanish speciality), but I thought for this one I'd go against expectations. And there will be more mead related customs coming up in a later chapter ;-)

Thanks for reviewing!

My goodness. You fit a truckload of stuff, all of it great, in this chapter. I love the belt!

Author Reply: Thank you! I got the inspiration for the belt from browsing through an old book on Medieval fashion. Glad to hear you liked it!

Oooopppssss! I meant Linda Hoyland's review, of course. Sorry, Dear!

Author Reply: No problem ;-)

Oh, dear. I believe that I posted a review for this chapter with the last one. I hope it is not too much of a spoiler for someone reading one piece at a time. While I am here, tho; I agree with Larner. This is shaping up like a delightful Shakespearean Romantic Comedy!

Author Reply: The kind of Romantic Comedy is what I had in mind really, just a bit of fun with misunderstandings, pretending to be somebody else and a happy end eventually!

Oh dear, Lothiriel/Gilwen, what a mess you are in and you are starting to fancy Eomer! Just delightful like a Shakespearean comedy!I eagerly await more.

Author Reply: Hello Linda,
yes, I think it's dawning on her that just trying to survive those three days that he's in Dol Amroth is not a good long-term strategy! And that kind of light-hearted romantic tale is exactly what I'm aiming for.

Thanks for reviewing!
