Fantastic story! i think it is realy well written and i love how you portrayed he character! Nice one!

And so their true identities are revealed. Loved this last chapter, I think it's my favourite out of the whole story!

Faramir really needs an alias with a whole biography attached to it. He was flundering a bit there.

I like the interaction with the kids! It's so natural and carefree.

Oh, Ioreth gets mentioned. You know how much I like her (or let's say, how much she amuses me)!

So, king and steward undercover... I always like those situations!

Oh, I'm not so sure whether it's even a stretch of canon. From what I'v seen of animals so far, they can be very intelligent, cunning and mischievous!

Hey, you kept the first line - which of course tells me which contest this was written for. I remember this story, I must have a close look what exactly you changed around:)

I'm already loving the little wager between Arwen and Eowyn. They're very dutyful wives!!

I haven't yet gone back and read this entire story, but I happened to click into this last chapter and skim through it.

I noticed that you inadvertently change the girl's name back and forth between "Haneth" and "Haleth". You do it several times in this chapter, and I don't know if you need to check the other chapter's also or not:

"Handir, Haneth! It is safe. There are some people who I wish for you to meet."

The two children came out of the hiding place, Handir still holding the knife uncertainly. Haleth grasped at his other hand and hid herself behind him as she looked at the tall men surrounding her.

Looks to be an amusing tale, though, so I'll need to make time to read the entire thing! A better review when I've done so!

That was so good!
Aragorn and Faramir's interaction with the two children was so cute!

I liked how you revealed their identities to Maethor and Celon. It was very...civil? I dunno. There was something about it that made it more realistic.
I also thought that the healing part was interesting-Tolkien never really expanded on the idea of Elvish healing, but that was a cool representation of it.

Thank you for a wonderful story!

I'm really liking this story. The characters and plot are great. Awesome dialogue.

I can only imagine how Celon will feel when she finds out that she told the king himself,"You don't know much about healing".
Thank you for the chapter!

Trouble is attracted to Aragorn like fleas are attracted to dogs! Thank you for the chapter!

Hope our two favourite rangers are going to be OK! I suspect that they are going to get into a lot of trouble for their exploits!

It is good that they were found by a nice family.

O! Cliff hanger! I can see this being completely realistic though, especially in Middle Earth where either the animals are more intelligent or the people are just more intune with nature and understand them. Great chapter.
