*content sigh* Congrats on your first long story!!! And as you probably already guessed, I really liked it:) This last chapter was wonderful as an epilogue, very quite and yet tieing up knots that needed to be tied up. I found the talk between Aragorn and Thranduil especially interesting. Probably out of the very egoistical reason that I'm currently thinking on how to write these two together. So it's good to see how other's handle it (and to have Thranduil accepting Aragorn's and Legolas' friendship is always a big plus). And you left the way open for a sequel! Because I highly doubt that their time in Rivendell will be quite and relaxing!
Author's Response: Thank you! :) I can't tell you how happy I was when I finally wrote "The End". At least I know now that I'm able to write and finish long stories. ;-) I'm very glad that you enjoyed my story! *hugs* I was really a bit nervous about posting it. I have to say I had fun writing the epilogue. The Aragorn-Thranduil scene was very interesting for me, too. Those two very seldom seek each other out or have the opportunity to talk, probably because their relationship often is not exactly amiable in fanfic stories. The way I see it, they can't help liking each other in spite of the problems that arise from Aragorn's friendship with Legolas. I hope I was able to inspire you. *g* I always like seeing how other authors handle certain scenes or relationships, too. You are the third person wanting a sequel, it seems I will have to start thinking about it. For some reason, no one seems to think that their journey to and their stay in Rivendell will be very relaxing. ;-) But first I should better try to finish a certain stubborn carpet-story. :P Thank you so much for reading and reviewing my story, I really enjoyed reading your comments and replying to them! :)
