I'm glad that you could adapt this story in an original one, because while I was reading, I thought that it was a really good one but which didn't seem like a Greenwood story to me. (I'm usually a canon reader)

You write beautifully, and your main character is very well developped.

There were just some inconsistencies of names and military status in some chapters (is it Turion or Tirion? It changed throughout the story), and I noticed confusion in the dialogues quotes. But I'm quite sure this kind of errors were corrected in the published version.

So thank you for the story. I think I'm quite interested in reading the original adaptation but not right away as it is still too fresh in my mind. Know that I spent litteraly the last 3 days reading it, though I was supposed to be writing my own fic. Thank you again and I wish the best for your books.

Celebriante

It is a wonderful story. Thank you for sharing.

Reading this work was a wonderfully long and sayisfying journey. I loved the way you played out the scenes - especially the mystic Legolas moments with him being the protege of Yavanna and all, and you captured the sheer wonder and beauty of those moments fantastically. And the way the characters spoke out about their beliefs, convictions, the rhetoric - fantastic. And, above all, it made me seriously think about some issues I had never thought to broach before. Coexistence and how far to take it, the works. It was also a really believable and compelling story about mending past hurts and finding yourself. It was a really, really great ending, perhaps a little bittersweet but all the more potent. I am truly glad that Thranduil and his children found peace at last. Vala know it has been a long journey. I am honored to have met the company and this Legolas, and without you none of this would have been possible. So thank you, fot this story and everything else! :)

I’ve just finished reading this, this is beautiful and I love the way you tied everything together. I just have one question - what did Norlad/ Norhad (Rinion’s maternal grandfather) do?

Hi there!
This story, is utterly amazing. I can’t articulate the words to say how much I love this. The whole world, the characters, everything is just beautiful. Your writing makes everything so realistic and you brought readers on the highs and lows of the characters. I found myself on edge each chapter, excited to see what was going to happen next. Well done! :P
Congratulations on publishing your books, maybe I’ll go on to read those as well! :D
Thanks! ~HappyCoolios~

Hi... Finally I reached the end of this one. An amazing experience. Lots of lessons to learn too. Their family dynamic is amazing, so tragic yet understandable. It is relatable too, even elves are not infallible to domestic problem, but theirs are on entirely different level. Well they did live forever, the matter of heart is truly important.

My favorite character is Handir. I wish I can read more about him.

About the book, I just never tried ordering anything from abroad. Not difficult, just unfamiliar with some of the payment methods. Usually I ask my brother to do that for me.

Again, thank you for writing and sharing!

Thanks for the info.

I'm back again with another review. Because I just can't... I love this story too much. This is epic. I'd buy your original book if I could for my personal collection (I love adventure so much). And also to show this to my friends. I've read your profile and you're right! that not many people are into fanfictions no matter how amazing they were written. When people heard "fanfictions" they automatically jumped into stereotypes of fan services, porns, self insert mary sues character, etc. I've always been thinking that it is great to simply love a universe or some characters, and that so much can be done to expand it. (Especially Tolkien's. He created an entire world along with it's races, languages, legends and myths, it seems like a real part of history. My favorite universe).

People sometimes ask why I rarely collect "original" book anymore. I still do when I found things I like but lately I found none. But there are hundreds of worthy fanfictions out there, and they deserved no less appreciation just because how they were published.

I never once purchased anything from foreign sites (I'll have to ask my brother for that). In the meantime, I'll read this. I've been trying to slow down or I'll devour this in few hours only. That won't do because you set too high a standard.

Oh wow, even your prologue is an epic summary. I seriously need to sleep right now, but I can't put this down. Usually I can quick read hundreds K words, but I seem to read yours to the letter because they're so engaging. It's not really written beautifully or poetically like most elvish ficts I usually prefer, but it is a real page turner (I don't know how to express it any other way). I refuse to skip because I'm afraid I will miss great moments, truly not a paragraph go to waste up until now.

This seems like an entirely new novel. Even your Legolas is not really like the "usual" Legolas, and I really love it. If soon his name turned into Hwindo I don't think I would notice. This is my third time revisiting this fandom over the years. This is amazing, how can I missed this story before!

The only thing that bothered me is that I still can't imagine the Ram En and the other, and I can't feel the depth of their friendship despite knowing Legolas loved them very much (I hope to find out more about them in future chapters, that detail about The Company sounded promising). As for the others like Lainion and Tirion, they have become real characters that I cared about, and they seriously feel canon.

I've never left a comment in the middle of a completed fict before. This is my first time.

I was mesmerised by your wonderful story. I loved the ending but it was left one mystery for me how orcs found out when Handir or his sister were travelling? Thank you so much for writing and sharing!

I love the portrayal of Thranduil! The political aspects in the court are so gripping. The animosity between Silvan and Sindar had to be really visible if a warrior dared hit the King's son. Thank you for sharing your story. It is really convincing and multidimensional. Can't wait to compare it with the Path of Novice.

Can't wait to see how relationship between Legolas and his family will develop. They are full of life and so complicated. I am caught up in your story.

This is one of the best Legolas stories. Thank you for writing. Are you still rewriting it? Found this information in your bio.

I really love Legolas's powers!

I love Legolas's personality. Can't wait for reading another chapter.

What a twist. I LOVE this story! Thank you so much for writing and sharing
