The Stronghold  by Aldwen 1 Review(s)
RenataReviewed Chapter: 9 on 3/28/2021
This is such a beautiful story that I had to finally break down and create a membership just so that I could leave a review.

You've done such a wonderful job of giving us a glimpse at the childhood of Elrond and Elros. I would not have thought such a story could be so interesting but you have proven me wrong, and I have fallen in love with these little boys. Knowing their destinies as adults, it is fascinating to see already the differences in their temperament that will ultimately lead to their parting.

I also grieve for Maglor, and Celebrimbor, and yes, even Maedhros, and wish that I could hear Maglor's music (sad though it is) and experience Maedhros' stories.

Just a very well written story, and I pity those who haven't read it, because they are missing something beautiful.

Author Reply: What a wonderful and encouraging review! Thank you so much! I am very glad you like the story!
Yes, I would so much love to hear those songs and tales too...
