| Hello Linda... long time reader of yours, first time review... May I ask why your love for Aragorn and Faramir in most of your stories? especially in their friendship and status as King and Steward... intriguingly curious... great writing no doubt about that, Linda. Haradrim custom is taken from traditional Muslim tradition of our world. It's still practised that way in many countries, even mine. Malaysia. Would love if you could have more stories regarding Elves, maybe of Elves visiting Gondor... and I dont mean Legolas and the Twins. Heh. Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review and to welcome you as a long time reader. I've always loved Aragorn and have grown to love Faramir too.I like to see Aragorn as the good father Faramir never had, I do indeed draw on elements of Muslim culture, though this is a pre Islamic civilisation. I'm afraid my Elf Muses rarely oblige, my favourite Elves are Arwen and Galadriel. | |

| Oh, this is beautiful and sad. Poor Princess Minnah - am I right in guessing she doesn't know how to ride a horse? I find the Kha Khan really *very* annoying. Not attending his own daughter's wedding - I don't care if he has thirty five *thousand* daughters (though I'm glad he doesn't), he really should make time for poor Minnah. *huffs in annoyance and glares at him* I hope Aragorn talks to him about that, or Imrahil, really! I look forward to seeing how this story unfolds, but I'm sure I know already that Arwen and Eowyn will take the very best care they can of Minnah. :) Hopefully Tahir and Adiva, especially Adiva, can be some sort of help as well! Kaylee Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. Yes, your guess is correct. The Kha Khan isn't very likeable but he is far better than his predecessor as he desires peace with Gondor. Arwen and Eowyn will make up to Minnah as well Tahir and Adiva. | |

| Aha! It would appear that Eowyn also will be able to offer Minna services that will benefit the girl, if as I surmise our young princess has not learned horsemanship. Excellent beginning here! Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I'm delighted that you are enjoying my story, Eowyn will help Minnah too. | |
