WHAT THE EVERLASTING FUCK, MAN?! WAY TO LEAVE US ON A CLIFFHANGER! YOUR CHARACTER IS DELIGHTFULLY UN-MARY SUEISH, WE'RE GETTING TO THE MEAT OF THE STORY, AND YOU ABANDON THIS?! HOW DARE YOU!

Okay, the rant's over. Now, I know I came too late to successfully resurrect this fic, but Goddammit, I'll try! This is an amazing story, beautifully written, with a great plot and believable characterization. It greatly pains me to discover it now, after you abandoned it for two and three quarter years. Now, I know that real life takes precedence over everything else, and other projects happen, and if you move on, you move on. But I will drag this thing back into your attention, get metaphorically down on my knees, and beg you: START THIS ONE UP AGAIN! Please, I'm groveling! Do it for the sad person who's on a laptop at 4 AM because of the fics like this?

Thank you for your time and tolerating my rambling rant.

Good story so far! I'll admit, your character seems a little Sueish, but I'll keep going!

(It's ten till 3 in the morning, I have school tomorrow, what the fuck am I doing?!)

It frustrates me a little that Estela is not making plans already. Since she might be a baby but she clearly doesn't think like one. One of the few things that she could do with her time is thinking, useful things, like making plans. But she mainly freaks out, which is understandably in any person but her, since she has that experience before with her other lives, and so I think she could have overgrown that already.
And she could be practicing some magic... secretly though. Don't want to reveal all her cards to the wrong kind of people.
Also for a adventure story, I think I would like things happening already, but this clearly won't happen while she is a baby, nor a child. So I think you need a huge time skip. Then we can have adventure.

I hope you will return soon also on this.

Cool

oh man oh man oh man! this is great!

this is the best oc self insert story in silmarillion... so good! I cannot wait to see what changes she makes!
it makes me so hopeful for the future! there is no other story like this!

please keep writing and updating! I want to read more and more!

will you update or are you on hiatus?

I'm on the edge of my seat here!

This story is so fun! I love the idea and your writing style! Can't wait to see what type of impact Estela has on the other characters and plot. What can/cannot be changed, what's fated to occur, etc. Biting my nails in anticipation for the next chapter!

I love this so far. Can't wait for more!

Umm. You posted the update in a wrong story, I think. This wasn't anything to do with The Silmarillion or Lord of the Rings, at all.

I think this is a wrong upload

Wrong story, I believe...

Well, we differ in our opinions and beliefs of Míriel, and the availability of gems as washed-up 'rubbish' on the beach, just like shells... and the stars in one's eyes, too... but I was still enjoying this story. Thanks for writing it, and please take care not to make the protagonist a Mary Sue. (A self insert need not always be a Mary Sue, IMO. :shrug:)
About the name of the girl's mother, though... umm, shouldn't it be Eärelen, or even Eärlen? Elves like the names of everything that sound smooth on the tongue, especially their own names, and the Teleri even more so. Eärwen's name doesn't even have the -dë behind it...
And did you perchance draw some inspiration from Another Man's Cage by Dawn Felagund? :) I recognised two scenes that were nearly the same as a couple of shot in her novel... :)

I can asure you mellón nín, that you have done a wonderful job! (smiles reassuringly) Estela is a wonderful character and I'm really getting curious about how she will be able to help her family with all the knowledge she has. It must be difficult though... getting reborn over and over again, but I can't help but feel amazed about the different possiblilities she can encounter from her different lives. Hannon lé, meldo! Have a good day
