| trust the elves to come up with a working plan. Hopefully Farell will take the bait but I doubt that the agency will not send more agents. One sentence disturbed me. Glorfindel wants not to risk Amroth´s life. What about his life, is it less worth? One day they will blow up the elves´ dwelling and that was it; I hope the elves consider this and the Valar are vigilant. Thrilling chapter. Thank you. Lai Author Reply: Hi Lai. I think Glorfindel is concerned that with Nimrodel pregnant, Amroth should not be risking his life, since Nimrodel needs him to help support her and the children in the manner in which Elves do when the elleth is expecting. And, as a warrior, Glorfindel consiers himself expendable if it means saving the lives of others. I'm glad you found this to be a thrilling chapter. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. I appreciate it. | |

| Alex has started a plan and the elves will finish it? Oh, that would leave a bad taste in my mouth but Alex should have involved them from the beginning. He had brought the elves in a dangerous situation. I´m curious what Glorfindel comes up with and who has knocked Alex out - friend or foe. Agents are no orcs but they are just as dangerous and a gun is much more worse then an arrow or a sword. Hope this will turn out well but surely the Valar are watching too? Lai Author Reply: Well, we'll see in the next chapter how Alex has fared and what happened to the other agents, Lai. The Elves have everything under control. *grin* Thanks for reading and reviewing. | |

| I can whole-heartedly agree with Alex´s anger. This meeting with Namo was too much and the time high for some straight answers. If the elves want him to join them then they have to be honest. He´s only a mortal but they should not deal with him from above. The Valar have not brought him in for no reason and they should quickly act against the other agents. A well placed bomb is a threat for the elves also - I´m not sure if the Valar would prevent it in time, even if I hope so. They have ignited this whole mess, after all. Very interesting chapter. Poor Alex he had just learned about the top of the ice berg. Lai Author Reply: Hi Lai. Yes, it was too much, the meeting with Námo on top of everything else, so it's not a wonder that he's exploded, it's just a wonder that he didn't do it sooner. And, of course, what he has learned is, as you say, just the tip of the iceberg. We'll see what plans he comes up with for dealing with Farrell shortly and how he involves the Elves in his scheme. Thanks for reveiwing. I appreciate it. | |

| yes, now on to get some real answers. LOL! But will Alex master all these news so quickly? I liked how he spoke with the other agent. He made his point clear but it´s also clear that the other has to be taken out before he rally hurts anyone even if I doubt that he could hurt an elf, or? They hopefully can look after themselves, or so I hope but they are not immune against a gun or anything worse. The introduction of Namo and Este was quite funny now is only Manwe left. Loved this chapter very much. Thank you. Lai Author Reply: Hi Lai. We'll see how well Alex handles what the Elves have to tell him. Clearly Farrell needs to be dealt with and we will see how that is handled as well. And Nate and Esther are always fun. I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter. Thanks for reviewing. | |

| I hope the Valar can also do something against Farrell and not only confuse poor Alex more and more. How much can he take? Oh yes, meet Manwe himself....but in some way he already has while drowning, yes? At one time he is talking with "Gods" and "angels" and at the next time he has a very earthly problem: another agent who wants him dead. Again I´m not sure if I wanted to be in his shoes. I liked how Alex objected that he would treat the elvish names with respect even if his name only hold sorrow...Lai Author Reply: Hi Lai. We'll see how the Valar handle things with respect to Farrell. And Alex met Námo, not Manwë. I don't think the poor guy is ready for a meeting with Manwë yet. *grin* At any rate, Alex is correct to point out that the students would be respectful of the names that have been reserved, knowing what the original owners of the names endured. Of course, I'm not sure anyone would want to be called Fëanor or Eöl, would they? I know I wouldn't. Thanks for reviewing. I appreciate it. | |

| until now I wanted to change place with Alex, but now...it´s really frigthening what´s happening to him. Springing from one character to the next if elf or human. I understand his frustration. Even the elves are surprised at this development, I guess. Very interesting chaspter and a much needed history lesson. Thank you. Lai Author Reply: It is pretty unsettling what is happening to Alex, but it's all to a purpose, as we will eventually see. And, since they've never come across this phenomena before, the Elves have every right to be surprised. I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter, Lai. Thanks for taking the time to let me know. I appreciate it very much. | |

| racial memory? Never heard of that but that sounds very interesting. Oh I will quickly write about my favourite elf and maybe I´m some decendant of....oh, daydreaming again. Forget it. You are not willing to give Alex a breather? Very interesting chapter and Alex did something not even the ever balanced elves expected. Lai Author Reply: Racial memory is something Jung talked about. And why would I give Alex a break? That's no fun. LOL! Thanks for commenting, Lai. It's appreciated. | |

| poor Alex, thinks he has learned the truth? I eager to see how he reacts in learning about the Valar and Maiar and being part of an upcoming fight leading ultimately to an Armageddon? He has only seen the tip of the iceberg now! Hopefully it´s not too much for a mortal to process but maybe he is really someone special, a late decendant of Beren or something like that? That would surely help. Why can I not encounter an elf? Only one, mustn´t be that much, but only one? (I would be very happy with Elrond - LOL!)THank you for another very interesting chapter. Lai Author Reply: Hi Lai. Yes, he still needs to learn about the Valar and the upcoming war, but one thing at a time. As for his being a descendant of Beren, that's an interesting idea and we'll have to see what comes of it. He is certainly special, regardless of his ancestry, simply because the Valar have chosen him to join Team!Glorfindel. LOL! It would be nice (and scary) to meet even one Elf, I agree. Thanks for reviewing. I appreciate it. | |

| the secret not a secret anymore! Hopefully Alex is worth the trust, yet he has taken the revelation quite calm. I would have freaked out to be in one room with so many ancient and dangerous people and yet how I wish to change place with Alex. I´m eager to read on how Alex will handle his new knowledge. I´m not so sure though if Glorfindel would let Alex go when he would tell all world their secret? Wonderful chapter and good to hear their real names. Lai Author Reply: Hi Lai. We'll see how ALex handles this new knowledge in the next chapter. Right now he's a bit stunned and probably can't process anything coherently. Thanks for reviewing. It's very much appreciated. | |

| Alex will never ignore an advice from Glorfindel, I´m sure. Let´s see what is coming out of his new black out. Ambrose´s story was dark and sad. Somehow I can understand Glorfindel´s grim expression. The doing of Amroth does not really account for an elf, yet these modern times require different methods to survive. I was more shocked that an elf can come in a position to be blackmailed, but we should not easily judge them. It must be hard for the elves to survive so long in our complicated world. Lai Author Reply: I'm sure he won't, Lai. We'll see what the black out is all about and what it portends for Alex. Amroth's story is very dark and sad, especially when he trusted Bradford with his secret and was betrayed. And it's best not to judge any of them, for who can say how we would've acted under similar circumstances? That any of the Elves managed to survive this long and be relatively sane is nothing short of a miracle, IMO. Thanks for reviewing. I appreciate it very much. | |
