This is lovely. I have often wondered, if when the royal couple did go north to stay in Annuminas for periods of time, they ever visited Rivendell. After all, her brothers and Celeborn still lived there, and others of the household who did not sail with her Father and Galadriel. I suspect, though, that it might have been a bit hard for both of them. It would stir memories of those they did not expect to see again, before the breaking of the world at least.
I have long thought that Faramir and Elrond ought to have spent some time together after the war. Yes, there would have time when Elrond came for Arwen's wedding. I believe it would also have been good if Faramir could have also visited Elrond in HIS home! At least here, he can enjoy much of the famous library. I am sure that he will spend time getting acquainted with Celeborn and the brothers, as well.

This is a sweet story. Aragorn is wise enough to remind Arwen to appreciate what they *have* and not just what they don't have.

Thank you so much. Aragorn is a wise man.

I, too, have loved looking at spider webs with the dew caught in them. Truly things of beauty.
So, Faramir is telling Aragorn about the quality of eggs in Imladris, is he? And who's been telling him of such things? Heh!

Many thanks for your much appreciated review. The webs are indeed beautiful. A good point about the eggs. I will fix it!

“I did not wish to waste a single moment of my visit here”
Neither would I! This is a very sweet moment between Faramir and Aragorn.

I can tell that this will join some of my favorites of your stories. As a retired librarian, I love Aragorn's plan to establish public libraries. Like Faramir, I would love to stand in Master Elrond's library. Thank you so much.

What a joyous and satisfying visit for both of these good friends. How we would love to visit that library ourselves!
I am thinking of creating public libraries in Minas Tirith and Annúminas to give more of my folk a chance to enjoy books.
A wonderful idea. And I always love imagining what rebuilt Annúminas will be like.
