What a wonderful story! There are so many things to like here: how you blended the happenings in ME with Earendil's past, grouping them thematically together and by that drawing new and interesting connections. And by that you're also portraying time as a mythical circle, because everything is connected in a way and decisions you made in the past will have an effect in the future.

Your best story to date, I think!



Author's Response:

I'm really glad you could see the idea of the cyclic time in the story, because that's one thing that I find fascinating not only in Tolkien's world, but also in reality. Thank you very much for the review!

Loved this chapter! I'm not so very knowledgable when it comes to Tolkien canon (probably because there is so very much of it), but I remember a lot of the quotes you used here from the research I did on the elessar for a story of my own. The way you put that all together here, retelling how things might have happened and tying it to the quest, was very well done!



Author's Response:

Thank you, Michelle! It was fascinating to reveal all the subtle connections between Aragorn and Eärendil, and the elessar is one of them also.
