| I can certainly see Merry finding comfort in comforting another as he could. Lovely imagery here. Author Reply: Hannon le! Yes, I have always pictured Merry (and Frodo) to be a comforter. Thank you for reviewing! Namarie! God Bless, Frodo Baggins | |

| Awww! What a sweet chapter! I love the moment with Frodo and Merry, and I love the look at Halmir's thoughts. Poor dear, it's so hard to be patient, isn't it? I can't wait for Frodo to meet him! Yeah, I already kind of know, but so what? :) I'm enjoying reading this "fixed" version anyway. :) Can't wait for more!!! :) God bless, Galadriel P.S. Oh, forgot. I absolutely love that Miriel reminded Halmir of his sister! That's a very lovely touch, my dear. Author Reply: Sorry...how long has it been since you posted this? AH!!! Oh I haven't posted in like...ages!! *shoulders slumping* Perhaps tonight. Thanks for the review. :) Yours, Frodo Baggins | |

| WOW! That's all I can say. I really like Halmir so far. You capture the emotion of this chapter very well. I always wondered what Merry was thinking at that moment, I can't remember them saying much about him there. Very good! God bless, Ellie Author Reply: Hannon le, Elanor. Halmir really was fun to create with the High Lady. Considering this was posted and modified at twelve forty, I'm glad it turned out so well. Well, honestly, poor Professor Tolkein couldn't have said something about everybody at every moment. It would have been very tedious to read and write. That's where fanfic comes in handy. Namarie, and Happy Easter! God Bless, Frodo Baggins | |

| This story was awesome! It kept me intrigued throught the whole thing! I cant wait to hear the continuation of this incredible story. Its so cool how u include the "Presence" and "Eru". You could also feel like you were there. I was scared when they were just sitting on the edge of death. (Or so they thought.) The song was cool how u used it to show that the war was over and that they had won. The characther Halmir is so creative and how he and Marry were friends. I cant imagine the amount of research it took to write all this. (and how much it will take.) I respect this story. I GIVE IT A TEN STARS!!!!!!! Author Reply: *bows deeply at waist* Hannon le, my king. It did take a lot of research, but I never could have done it without the help of Queen Galadriel. SHe is an excellent researcher (really just an excellent author and all that goes with that title). Halmir's character was fun to create. Beware, my cousin, for in future chapters, I think you may recognize some of the situations the Hobbits get themselves into. Cousins never grow up!! God Bless and see you at your house for Easter lunch, Frodo Baggins | |

| Wow! Oh goodness, I know Frodo and Sam won through and didn't make the ultimate sacrifice, but you know what? I'm sitting here just as tense as a bowstring, and was on the verge of tears all through this chapter. This is so amazing and exciting! All that planning and it's finally taking some kind of permanent form! "The hour of Darkness has come, child. Do now as you wish with what time you have left." Oh my goodness if that doesn't chill the heart! How'd you come up with that as a reason for Miriel being let off? It's a *good* one! You do Merry's POV excellently, and I love how you show the friendship between him and Halmir. There's obviously a lot of affection there, as shown by the nickname "Mer." So sweet! :) And I love this: "Well, Frodo...Frodo is very brave. He’s always been quite solemn for a Hobbit. He was that way since his parents died before I was born, but before the Quest, he laughed a lot more often. His laughter was so contagious. He...he laughed very little on the Quest. It changed him, you know. He was very sad when he lost his parents, of course, and he went through periods of depression, but on the Quest, he..he was so sad. Always tired, but always straining, fighting the Voice of the Ring. Oh, Frodo...you were such a wonderful cousin...and..."Merry’s voice trailed off. A tear left his eyes as they gazed out the window towards Mount Doom. *hugs Merry* Now I'm off to send you the e-mail you've so often imagined...:) God bless, Galadriel Author Reply: *blushing* Well, hannon le, my dear! I...I didn't know exactly how this was going to begin, and I certainly hadn't imagined this, but I'm pleased with it. I hope you are, as well. So you think my reason for Miriel being let off was good? LOL!! Well, considering the conversation we had about healers, and talking about how busy they must have been, I was pretty desperate. But, genious often springs from desperation. Hannon le! God Bless and Happy Easter!! Frodo Baggins | |

| This is very good, Frodo! What's going to happen next??? I loved this line: A friend is always worth time and love. That is sooo true, and so worth it. Lovely story! God bless, Ellie Author Reply: Yes, it is true. Hannon le for your reviews. I'm loving all your stories, by the way. Namarie, mellon nin! God Bless, Frodo Baggins | |

| Oh, I like!! This will make a great story. Cannot wait to see more! Great Job F.B. and ideas Q.G.! God bless! ~Arwen Author Reply: Why, thank you Lady Arwen! I am greatly honored by you enthusiasm. I cannot wait to post more! Hannon le for reviewing! Namarie, mellon nin! God Bless, Frodo Baggins | |

| Well, I hope some will read the reviews. For those of you who do, I just mentioned Halmir in passing one day, and Frodo took him and ran with him. She's done most of the writing, so she really deserves the credit. *grin* Author Reply: Well, ahem, those of you who do read the reviews all know that a story simply cannot exist without an idea, or a plot, and Queen Galadriel has come up with both, and she actually wrote parts of the story (future chapters). So please, disregard her...sweet, but unjust, request for me to receive the credit. And Queen Galadriel, I was tempted to remove this review, but, I can't do that to you. ;) Namarie! God Bless, Frodo Baggins | |

| Ooooooo! I was so excited to see this! A wonderful beginning, my dear! You really capture that feeling of waiting in helpless fear, and I love the affection Merry shows Halmir. This is my favourit line: He glanced down at the sleeping form. No, not completely useless. A friend is always worth time and love. Well-said, and very true. God bless, Galadriel Author Reply: *bows low at waist* I'm glad you think it's worthy, mellon nin! Halmir and Miriel are so hard because I have to make a personality for them! Oh well, it will work out. I captured the feeling of waiting in helpless fear? Oh, that's very good! I hoped I had, I was nearly braindead when I wrote that. Namarie, mellon nin!
