More please! You are fast beocming one of my favourite authors. Not many people can write Celeborn as well as you!

How wonderful. Celeborn is so neglected. You describe him beautifully. I love his words to Aragon and your last line: He understood why the Elf was called Celeborn the Wise. perfect ending.

Hey! Finally get to use this new tool. A bit late, perhaps...but better late than never. :) I personally feel extremely indignant when someone says 'Celeborn who?' Just my little tribute to the chap. Thanks!

Wonderful exploration of Celeborn, who as you note is often neglected. I particularly liked the sense of endless time you create. He has been around for millennia and seen tragedy beyond bearing. And yet, because he is one the Firstborn, he has to bear it and, again as you say, he can't forget. And you've conveyed most of this nicely in dialogue. Good job.

Thank you! Endless time is something I think Celeborn's more than a little accquainted with. Being immortal does that. :) But thanks so much for the review....my first on this site!
