Yes, it is easy to find oneself rowing gladly with motivation borne of hope!

Glad to see this again!

See what happens when you come looking for a quick read?

Nice little piece. Despair giving way to hope; and isn't that was Estel truly meant, not just to Middle-earth, but these captives? It lifts the heart a wee bit to see this played out from another point of view.

Well done!

What a relief and a joy it must have been to those galley slaves, to be free at last! We know they never expected to be set free of that galley.

This is *so* wonderful. I just love it.

It gave me chills to read this! (The good kind.)

Well done. Very well done.

I wonder if Beren the hero, for whom this character might very well be named, felt as hopeless when he was held prisoner... Somehow I imagine he did.

And another excellent gap-filler to fill in some of the details Tolkien left out about a great many things. Thanks for sharing this with us, Linda. A story that definitely needed to be told.
