Thranduil gazed deeply into his son’s eyes and calmed his son’s agitated thoughts to a level so that soon the elfling was snuggling close against him content to be held in his arms.

A beautiful scene in the midst of a heart-breaking reunion.

(Though I do wish I had this particular gift to use on an unsuspecting granddaughter of mine. *g*)

I love the term 'raging disarray' - I must remember it for the times the same condition occurs in my life. Which is often!

And what a beautiful ending to the chapter. I was near to tears myself.

Bravo! Well done!

Author Reply: Thank you so much, Agape. Yes, this was a lovely scene and fitting for an elf like Thranduil. And believe me I wish for this gift also with my two girls, but it never works...LOL! They always produced "raging disarray" and so the term slipped into my story. You were near tears? Then I have done something right! Again thanks for your lovely review. Lai

I was concerned about Saeron until I read about the three boys. My heart clenched and tears threatened.

I can well imagine Thranduil's need to take back his kingdom, restore order, and begin not only his healing, but the healing of his people.

Author Reply: yes, it´s so sad with the boys and Thoran has a lot to answer for. Yet Thranduil has also a lot to do to pick up all the pieces. Thank you so much for reviewing. Lai

And so the children have been rescued, but not all and that is a grave tragedy and Saeron is also injured. Thoran had much to answer for indeed. Now to see if Saeron recovers and what Thranduil will do about the mess Thoran has put them all in.

Author Reply: Thranduil will have a lot of work to do to rearrange all and I want not to trade places with Thoran when Thranduil is getting him. Th tragedy with the boys will surely not help matters. Thank you so much for reviewing, Fiondil. Lai

A very exciting chapter, Lai. Trust Glorfindel to show up in the nick of time, and Celeborn, too! eagerly looking forward to the next chapter.

Author Reply: indeed, but better late then never! I´m glad you liked the chapter. Thank you so much reviewing and still following! Lai

Whoo hooo! A tense and awesome chapter. Great fight scene. The foolishness of the southern Elves. The courage of Galadhion and his troops. Elladan and Elrohir.

I thought sure the Crown Prince was a goner - but you did well.

It was splendid looking into the face of Glorfindel - absolutely splendid.

One of the best chapters yet!

Author Reply: Hi Agape, thank you so much. I´m not that good at battle descriptions but obviously this one worked! With help Galadhion had made it, yes! The appearance of Glorfindel and Celeborn was most fun zu write. Again thanks for a most appreciated review. Lai

Well, we still don't know if Saeron and the children survived but hopefully they have. Glad to see Thoran in custody. Hanging is too good for that snake, as the saying goes. Eagerly awaiting the next chapter.

Author Reply: Yes, Thranduil will have to think hard what to do with Thoran. The enxt chapter is almost done so you will no have to suffer for much longer...*g*. Thank you so much for your review, Fiondil. Lai

This is harrowing. I still can't tell the good guys from the bad guys.

Author Reply: you are right, but it will get clearer soon. There are not many bad guys, yet one mad mind is often too much. Thank you for reviewing. Lai

Author Reply: yes it was, but now they are knowing what´s happening and can acting accordingly. Thank you for reviewing. Lai

Thranduil has heard the children, we now know they are in the barrels. (as if there was ever any doubt!) The different points of view in this chapter are fascinating. We have now seen the same scene from Thranduil's, Thoran's, Saeron's and Galion's points of view. I think, perhaps, once all is settled, Thranduil may not have to be too hard on Luindal. I suspect that the elf was frightened and trying to protect the people of the palace from too much rough treatment at the hands of Thoran and his followers. Now, to get everyone rescued and back to health. And perhaps, our favorite King ought to create a system of councils to hear and deal with the concerns of the people in the more shadowed parts of the land?

Author Reply: I´m glad you like the different POV´s. Luindil is a tragic hero and I fear he will end tragically too. A council will be a good idea, but there are simply not enough warriors to guard the south; talking will not remedy that. I really appreciate your review. Thank you for sending it. Lai
