Awwww! You made me cry! I don't usually cry over stories - okay, sometimes I do - but this one made me want to ugly-cry. What a fantastic story! By the way, I loved the use of the story of Joseph (yes, I recognized it as it is one of my favourite Bible stories) for most of the plot. Very, very well done!

such a great tale. thank you for writing this

re Chapter 24
Who's Garret? She was sold to a human named Faelurinc. The only other man mentioned is Lairn.

Awwwww! Beautiful! A perfect ending.

Oh, gosh! And I thought I was crying in other chapters! Ohhh...i cried so much through this chapter! It was so beautiful but heartbreaking. Sometimes, Elladan, we mortals don't even know how we live with it.

And guess what I started listening to as they said goodbye to Aragorn, which instantly induced tears? Kingdom Hearts soundtrack Destiny's Union! It could not have been more perfect!

I needed that laugh!

A boatload of onions! Elrond more than deserves to be with Celebrian. But I am going to miss him...so much!

I thought this day would never come!

Finally!

That was too close! I was more than a little upset at the grownups too. They accepted Arwen betrothing herself to a mortal but they still forced those two to wait, when they knew one of these oncoming battles could easily take Haldir's life? How much more do they have to prove themselves to you guys? At least they could have had a little time together in wedded bliss and gotten to know what it was like, before all this grief attacked the land! That was not fair to them! Celeborn promised they'd marry someday. Well, how could he promise that with war loomong over their heads and not letting them marry?

I'm proud of her brother!

I can understand that. But I'm still glad Glorfindel stopped her!

That would be terrifying.

I know Celeborn and Galadriel are powerful and have foresight, but the reason I felt so bad for Faelwen and Haldir is because Celeborn promised them their time to wed would come. Even he can't promise that! And especially the way they keep forcing them to wait. They accepted Arwen being betrothed to a mortal but their own still must wait? I know they must have a very good reason, but that has got to sting! What if they're wrong? What if Haldir dies like in the movies? If they had said yes, at least they would've had at least a little time together in wedded bliss. At least they would've been able to have experienced that once!
