| This was wonderful! I agree with your decision to change the POV. We have been reading of Wídfara and I have wondered what he is thinking when he is around Aragorn. Now we know that a lasting bond has been formed and we even got a little foreshadowing that the two will be needed for the "hunt". :-) Well done! Idril Author Reply: Thanks, Idril. I'm glad you liked the chapter and the change of POV. I made a conscious decision in the beginning to keep the POV on Aragorn, so that the reader only knows what Aragorn knows. It was a way of keeping up the level of suspense, since we have no idea what is happening elsewhere, no more than Aragorn knows. Yet, when this chapter came to me, especially with *two* Valar in it, I just couldn't resist. Thanks again for reviewing. | |

| Wonderful chapter, Fiondil (these are the times when I wish I was a writer, I need to come up with some new adjectives to thank you with.) I've said it before, you have given the Valar such wonderful description and Life. Thank you. If you don't mind me asking, Estel and Widfara called each other "sweordbroor". Did I miss the definition? What does it mean? thanks for the great read, E Author Reply: The word is "sweordbroðor" (sword-brother). It was defined in an earlier chapter. Glad you enjoyed this chapter. Unlike the previous chapters and the ones that will follow, which are all from Aragorn's POV, this chapter is unique in that it is from Wídfara's POV, except for the last part between Námo and Oromë. When the chapter presented itself more or less as a whole, it was too good not to write. | |
