I began reading this story when it first appeared on fanfiction I was fortunate to become friends with the author. I was devastated when she told me why her story would go unfinished. It is truly one of the best fics ever written by a wonderful woman. God bless

This story has been one of my absolute favs. It's been some years I've read this but I just saw your last note. I'm devastated. Wherever you are I hope you're at peace Nightwing 3

It’s been a few years since I last read this, but it has held up beautifully, still such a riveting story. It’s possibly my favorite LOTR fanfic. I’ve only now learned of the reason it was left unfinished. If the author’s daughter ever comes across this comment, know that I’m sorry for your loss, and your mother’s writing has brought a lot of joy into my life. This is not the first time I’ve stayed up all night completely engrossed in this story.

A great, well-told story. Remembered well. Loved by many. Sadly, to remain unfinished.

Oh please do update!

This story was amazing and beautiful as I imagine the person who wrote it was. I'm so grateful to them for having written this and for having shared an amazing part of who they were with us. Thank you for keeping this wonderful piece up and for continuing to share it. I'm so very sorry for your loss

I saw some people asking for an update or saying this story was abandoned. Unfortunately, that was not the case...the author died of cancer before she was able to complete it. She was a tremendous writer.
Scroll down to see the comment left by her daughter for more details.

Please, say you will finish this story, or at least share with us how it should end. It is among the best fanfiction I have ever read. And my favorite portrayal of Legolas and Aragorn's friendship. I have been waiting for many years to hear the ending, and continue to hope. All my best to you. Gwen

I read the message from the author's daughter, and I have to say it made me cry. This story is something I took a break from for a while, but I came back to it and was nearly done reading all the chapters when I realized that it could simply not end that way.
This story was not like a fanfiction. It was its own, special story that will remain in many people's memory for a long time. I am terribly sorry for your loss, for even though I didn't know the author personally, knowing that a writer of a story I enjoyed so deeply has suffered makes me very sad. To See A World will be deeply rooted in my memory for it was one of a kind.

Noooo another abandoned fic

It's with a heavy heart that I comment on this. This fic is one that evey couple of years I would come back to and re-read. Whenever I think of LotR fic, I would instantly remember the bread making adventure earily on and smile. Legit the day Ian Holm passed away I had decided before knowing to come over here and start a reread long overdue and I was heart broken to see her message on her profile. Then I saw her daughters message in comments confirming the worst. This story was full of fun and life. It's an adventure well worth the ride and I'm forever grateful that you shared it with us Nightwing. May you rest in peace.

Dear Nightwing,

I just wanted to say that I really hope you're safe and in a good health. I read the reason why you stopped updating. It was posted 3 years ago. I really really hope you managed to win against your illness and that you're recovering.

Also, I wanted to say that you're incredibly talented. Your story is just... Wow! Amazing! Thank you very much! I wish I can one day read its final chapter but your health comes first.

I'll pray for you, that's the least I can do. ️

So wow. I may have to add this story to my list of “fan fictions that are not written like a FanFiction.” Excellent job on your word choices and your plot. I binged this in two days and now I eagerly await the ending. It’s been five years... if you could finished, I would greatly appreciate it! I can’t wait to hear the end! :-)

I enjoyed this fic :)

That was single handedly the most beautiful chapter of any book I have EVER read in my entire life.
Thank you.
So so much.
