| I'm glad that Denlad has some answers - and even a degree of closure I suppose. And soon there will not be a ranger left on patrol for a fifty mile radius of the Rushlights' farm! Author Reply: LOL... yes, Aragorn better get back on his feet before they all show up at the Rushlight Farm! Poor Bowen would go off the deep end, I fear. | |

| More Rangers indeed! Poor Bowen, his life is getting so complicated with all these rangers coming uninvited to his farm. And he was thinking to have them going and finally have the farm for his family. Wrong. Loved every single sentence. I was in tears with the baby's description, his soft skin, his tiny fist, Bowen's reaction to him. And Strider saved his life! and for sure, he may put his past experience in the past. Poor Denlad, it was after all Bowen's uncle, and they resembled each other, no wonder the memory came alive. It seems now that he is coming to his usual self. Good. Halbarad and his hot toddy, it was funny. And it seems that the cake wasn’t that great. And now, when I read the title of this chapter, I just realize that the whole story was for this purpose and it is so beautiful. Thank you. Author Reply: Thanks, Fantasia! Yes, this is definitely the chapter that ties in most closely with the title of the story and ties in with the overall theme of names in all three stories (when I finally have them all written... the third one is only in the very beginning draft stage, and not very far along even at that). How we look at each other based on our names and how our behavior affects the interpretation of our names and how our names affect our behavior... it's all part of the tale. So glad you liked everything in this chapter! | |

| Although it taxed poor Aragorn, I'm so glad he was able to help little Owen Rushlight...hopefully that will help ease his mind after losing the other child to illness. And how sweet to give Estel as the baby's middle name. :) LOL! Loved Bowen's reaction at the end...more rangers! Author Reply: Thanks, LisaG! Yes, more Rangers! Poor Bowen, just when he thought life might get back to normal. *g* I'm glad you enjoyed this chapter. | |
