Oh, this looks good. It seems that the Battle Beneath The Trees isn't quite over yet -- it's basically won, but there's still those little burping hiccups as large events fade away. I like this efficient, businesslike princess -- all the royal family, in fact. They seem like a very hands-on crew, right there in the thick of things, commanding from the ground. They know what's going on at all times, and they know when they have time for feelings and when feelings must be put aside for business matters.

there's still those little burping hiccups Good way of putting it! :-)Yet you're right, I believe. It's been about three months, and things *do not* get that fast back to normalcy, not after such ard fought battle, not in Mirkwood, not in GOndor or in ROhan... so it was kind of fun to guess how they were coping with the aftermath, while Gondor celebrated..:-) I'm so glad that you like the princess...I was a bit afraid, but the story has been sleeping in my hard disk for some time now and it was pushing its way out...
