*stares* Elrond. Has. Lived. For. At. Least. A. Thousand. Years. Without. Chocolate. Is it even possible?
Love the fic. The dialogue seems to be in character, and chocolate grown and treasured only in Harad in Middle-earth seems right, too.
I vote that you write a sequel depicting the hobbits' reaction to chocolate!
Namarie!

I'm glad you think that they're in character, and I'd agree that it would be so bad to live thousands of years without chocolate. Imagine the cravings. *shudder*

mmmm... yay for chocolate in Middle-earth! nicely done story. I second the thoughts of the other reviewers: the Hobbits need to learn of this now!

I'm going to try and write the hobbits, but there's an Elured and Elurin death bunny, that needs to be written first. *hearts chocolate*

Numenor. The source of many goodies. Does that mean that chocolate is a staple of the Blessed Realm? If so, it could account for why elves look forward to going there.

Hehe, the Valar could bribe all the Elves with chocolate once a century or so. No wonder the Elves of M-e go there for healing.

Very cute idea. Wish I could come up with such things! Psssst---chocolate is an aphrodisiac, right?;)

Noooooooo! Stop sending bunnies, they're nasty evil little things. ;-) I'm glad you liked it.

Mmmmm..... chocolate....
Nice idea for a story, and having it come from Harad makes perfect sense. Though I could see it causing problems later on if either Arwen or Eowyn were pregnant and having chocolate cravings and they were having trouble obtaining the beans... :D
Author's reply
I wanted chocolate, so I made it appear regardless of whether it would actually be in M-e or not. Besides, they had potatoes. ;-)
I'm going to end up writing multiple chocolate chapters, if people keep sending bunnies at me.

Oh thank goodness. I hate to think of any people living without chocolate. It is exactly in the same category as athelas. It's medicinal!
Author's reply
Not having chocolate would be bad indeed, and so would not being able to have it for thousands of years!

They all carefully took a sip of the hot drink and after a few mouthfuls, Arwen said, “I think that trade with Harad has now become a necessity."
What a 'sweet' story! It just begs for chapter 2, where the hobbits are introduced to chocolate.

The hobbits might be coming soon, if I can prod something into existance.

Yummm, chocolate. I was just wondering the other day what would happen if the hobbits discovered chocolate in Minas Tirith. Will you perhaps write more?
Author's reply
I'm think about writing the hobbits, but that would be way out of my comfort zone.

I like the idea of the younger generation learning about chocolate and the idea of it coming to Gondor again as a gift from Harad for Aragorn's wedding. Nice idea and nicely written.
