Truly beautiful and a hope that I think many of us have - to see the ones that we loved in this life after we pass the Circles of Arda. Thank you for these cleansing tears. - Erulisse Author Reply: Thank you, Erulisse... I'm so glad this touched you and offered a bit of catharsis. I have my own such hopes, and a lot of that went into the writing of this--at times I shed tears of my own, to be honest. Thank you for your kind review. | |

Oh my gosh, for so long I have wanted someone to write a story about what and where Aragorn went after he passed, I didn't think anyone would do it. This is utterly beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing this. Hugs The Imp P.S. Maybe you could write one about when Arwen comes also?? Author Reply: Thanks, Imp! This one's been on my mind for quite a long time, what might have happened when Aragorn and Isildur met at long last. I'm glad you liked it. :) I might tackle Aragorn and Arwen's reunion one of these days, if I can get a clear picture in my mind of it. I like the idea of writing stories set beyond the circles of the world, so it's definitely a possibility, but we'll see how this one flies first. :) Thanks for the review! | |

I understood why there were no trumpets, no fanfare. It was the love of the people that he had led, and who had the privilege to journey with him at the last, who provided the pomp, the circumstance. What a beautiful, glorious story! How I would love to see this filmed. And Aragorn's words at the end are just perfect. Author Reply: Thank you, shirebound! I'm so glad you enjoyed this... it's such new territory for me, writing Isildur and about the life for Men beyond the circles of Arda. Part of me is still wondering, "What was I thinking??" *g* And wow, I hadn't thought about it, but it would be amazing to see this on film! *daydreams about casting Isildur and Halbarad* Thanks again for the lovely review! | |
