Oh no, not an evil cliffie!!! Oy Vey,I have the patience of a knat, I'm the girl that cheats and reads the ending when the angst gets to great.

Wowza, what a great beginning. Now to try and dream up what could have rattled Elrond.
I enjoy the two different POV's.

Author Reply: Elrond has all reason to be stressed, this I can already promise. I´m glad you liked the different POV´s. It was a joy to write. The next update will come soon. Thank you so much for reviewing. Lai

You have become a writer of surprise twists, turns of plot and fate that are quite unexpected. Elves can fade from grief, I wonder. But that would be a slow process. What, indeed, were the events of the previous evening? I will be anxiously "tuning in" to find out. You are looking here at the story from many characters points of view. This should be good!

Author Reply: my writing is unexpected? Then I have done something right. THank you so much. Indeed elves can die from grief. The events of the previous evening are not pleasant at all, this I can promise. Elrond is not shocked without reason. The different characted views make the story more interesting, or so I hope. Hopefully you are "turning in" for the next chapter. Update soon - promise. Lai

Poor Elrond, and the poor children of Elrond.

You know, Tolkien described him as being "kind as summer". I wonder if some of that kindness resulted from the sorrows he lived through.

Author Reply: I never considered this but maybe you are right. Thank you so much for your lovely review, Lindelea. I really appreciat it. Lai

Oh, how angsty. Poor Elrond, but poor Glorfindel even more. Can't wait to see where you from here, Lai.

Author Reply: angsty? Then I have done something right, but I promise I have just started. LOL!
Thank you so much for an appreciated review, Fiondil. Lai

It had to be difficult for everyone in the valley, but particularly for those who were so close to Celebrian. It is time to let the healing begin.

Author Reply: yes, Elrond is in dire need of a respite and true healing but I fear until his sons see reason there will no healing be found.Thank you for your review, Larner. Lai

What sad memories! This does not bode well...

Author Reply: you are right, that glimpse in Elrond´s desolate soul does indeed not bode well. And it has only started. Thank you so much for reviewing, Ellie. Lai
