Ren 2005-05-02 ch 15, anon.	abuseI've been reading this story so long (and yet this is the first time I've seen it on 'm over at Henneth Annun) Excellent chapter as usual! The filled Tolkien gaps and utter believably of thoughts and actions. Ah! Just wonderful! Update soon, Please!!
JadeGoddess 2005-04-05 ch 15,	abuseI have read the similiarion so I am wondering the relationship between galadriel and celeborn at the beginning taken from inferences??
jacqui 2005-01-01 ch 15, anon.	abusei love this story. i think i read it for the first time about 6 months ago. i kept going back and reading parts of it again. it brings so much of a story into the history of the times mentioned. the noldor interest me greatly, perhaps because of their complex lives. so i have very much enjoyed reading this. a few weeks ago i was extremely happy to see it had been updated. i have just now gone back and read this chapter again. i can't wait for the next one to see how this all works out. ~Jacqui
tigersmeleth 2004-12-25 ch 15,	abuseNever have I read a story that so explained the consequences of Feanor so well written as yours. Congratulations on the wonderful writing! This story is truly a masterpiece.
Kivessa1 2004-12-15 ch 15,	abuseThank you for updating! Yay love-angst.
cutemara 2004-12-12 ch 15,	abuseyay! an update :D
Marnie 2004-12-12 ch 15,	abuseWow! I'm so glad you're back with this. This was a fantastic chapter - you deal with all the complex politics of the First Age so well, without leaving anything or anyone out. It's amazing. Naturally, being me, the bits I love most are the Celeborn ones - you write him so well; thoughtful but masculine, and not willing to take any kind of s**t from her. From what I see of her here, she badly needs that kind of influence in her life! I enjoyed the visit to Cirdan, and the strange relationship between Nimloth and Dior. But what a terrible place to leave it! (I mean terribly heartwrenching for the readers.) I will be waiting in extreme trepidation for the next chapter!
Soledad 2004-12-12 ch 15,	abuseOh, my! It was a long wait, but worth every minute of it! Your Celeborn is so complex, so impressive, so wonderful that he alone would make the whole tale worth reading. But there's also your Galadriel. You bring me almost - almost! - liking her, several times, only to make me hate her dishonesty even more, after the next twist. And then there is poor Orodreth, making the fatal mistake, just to be freed from the overwhelming shadow of Finrod, foreshadowing his own fall due to human influence, too. And I certainly can understand his wife. I wouldn't want to fill Galadriel's shoes, either. Oh, and Círdan! Such strength! Such dignity! Such sober humility, realizing that he wasn't the right person to raise a future King, after all! And I'm very happy that there are still authors who go for the Ereinion son of Fingon solution. I thought I was the only one left. g All in all, the story didn't lose its strong inner coherence and its charms during the long break. On the contrary, it seems to grow better and better with each new chapter. I'm very happy that you updated.
Eruannath 2004-12-05 ch 14,	abuseFirst, I would like to thank you for creating and sharing such a wonderful story. Really. I seldom read fanfictions as I prefer the originals for the canon and style. But this one is just perfect. I've spent almost all day reading through the chapters and, what can I say... You have blown my mind away. I've always been a huge Galadriel fan and this story fullfils all my dreams of untold events and fills so many gaps. I can see that you have crafted your work with much love in Tolkien's writting and have paid special interest and effort in details. I congratulate you for that. Because as I was reading the story and imagining every movement, expression, everything! I was even speaking the dialogues outloud! I cannot wait for the end (and I admit I don't want it ever to end). A really fantastic and wonderful story. Excellent job :)
Leslie Lady of Light 2004-09-10 ch 5,	abuseThis is a wonderful depiction of the relationship between Galadriel and Feanor. I confess I've always been intrigued by the lock-begging and how the two greatest of the Noldor were "unfriends" for ever. Also, I love Feanor, he's the best, and while I like Nerdanel/Feanor separation stories, a good Galadriel, Feanor story is sorely needed once in a while, even if it's not romance. I'll come back for the rest later, I'm slightly depressed that you killed off Feanor in 6 chapters. Also, the idea of Feanor giving Galadriel the Elfstone is very new and interesting. I didn't somehow imagine the Vanyar as sturdy, I more thought that of the Noldor, since they were like Aule and were smiths, etc. (they'd need to be strong)> I assumed Galadriel took after the Noldorin side, but was greater even than them. But all your other research is WoW! very thoroughly done, great job! You must have read silmarillion and home many times. I also thought Galadriel very much like Feanor, so the fact that they both agree on the same wrong but necessary actions is unsurprising. Good job portraying it though! I like the affair with Glorfindel! I wonder how they'll break it off! He's alive, isn't he?, in LotR, in Rivendell? And she's in Lorien, with her HUSBAND...hmm, Interesting...;) Keep up the GOOD writing!
Miria 2004-07-20 ch 14,	abuseFinally there happened something concrete between Artanis and Celeborn. yippee! This is a great fic! Please update soon! I love the chapters for being so long! And the plot is so skillfully made and exciting. I think I have to read it all over again from the start while waiting for the next chapter. ;)
Music2084 2004-06-23 ch 14,	abuseThat is a great fiction so far...plz update soon
Aenigmatic 2004-04-12 ch 11,	abuseHey, this is some serious work, with thorough understanding of this period in the Silmarillion, tossed with a generous dose of your writing. ;-) Love the way the characters are pushed around so effortlessly by your pen (or keyboard, that is), and the slow build-up drama between Galadriel and Celeborn. The time when she finally grew possessive/jealous was also the time I yelled with joy. Keep it up! I hope the new chapter will come soon! ;-D
kate 2004-04-05 ch 14, anon.	abuseplease update soon!! ^^ I love this story!! =)
Kivessa1 2004-03-19 ch 14,	abuseAwesome story. One of the best fanfics I've ever read. You absolutely must continue soon! :)
