| *me trying to figure out if I have read that visit on the way home* "It was a letter which communicated many things and nothing at the same time, and she was glad of it. For a time she had thought that the Rohirric lord would simply cut off all contact with her in an attempt to push her from his mind, but for once in her life she was happy to be wrong." favorite sentences and the rest of that section. "The baby kicked and laughed delightedly, and Éomer did not fail to notice the smile that formed on the lady’s lips as she watched them" she thinking about her future children then? heehee. So from August to spring or August to August to spring has passed? “Twins?” Éomer managed. He looked at Lothíriel, whose face was filled with glee. “Could you not have warned me?” “Why, no, my lord,” she replied. “I am as much surprised as you are.” heehee and cool! “The child you hold was born first,” said Faramir. “We named him Meriadoc. Lothíriel carries Peregrin.” heehee...and Elboron will now hopefully be friends with his siblings as his uncle and namesake was friends with their namesakes. Unfortunately I barely took in the sonnet and the Princess Bride reference(s_ because I am pretty tired and brain dead. | |

| What a wonderful way to let them gradually approach one another again! I really enjoyed reading their letters and I thought what you wrote about them rang true. They became friends again and so the way is cleared for love. | |

| This was a lovely chapter, beautifully written. I love the letters written between Eomer and Lothiriel. When I initially read of Lothiriel's deception, I was not pleased with this plot device because it was so out of character for her in my mind. More out of character was Imrahil's participation in the deception. But you have brought it full circle revealing Lothiriel to not be a perfect human being despite her training and upbringing as a noble. The one lesson I take from this chapter is that there is always room for forgiveness and the reforging of relationships despite hurts of the past. I don't know if you realize that lesson is within your chapter here. It is a great gift. :) Melyanna, your writing is wonderful and I only wish you could tell me this world of Middle Earth with Eomer, Lothiriel, Eowyn and Faramir was but one step away to walk into. But it is through your writing that a person such as myself can enjoy Middle Earth beyond the movies and the books...especially Eomer and Lothiriel's lives together. For that I thank you! You mentioned in your notes you are writing the last chapters. Does that mean you will conclude this portion of Eomer and Lothiriel's relationship? Will you continue to write more of their lives together? I hope so. I don't want it to end and I am sure your other fans would have the same sentiment... Looking forward to the next chapter. Namarie.

| This is a much better basis for a relationship between them really. They have learned to know each other - both when light-hearted and when under pressure. Lothiriel has shown strength and resolution and Eomer has displayed kindness and generosity. Twins! Called after the periannath - it's no wonder Pippin reciprocated with Faramir. I'm sure Merry will have had an Eowyn, too. Can't wait to see how Eomer and Lothiriel resolve their differences! | |

| Wonderful. It was nice to see their love and trust slowly grow. And what a shock for both seeing the twins, I feel that this meeting can only blossom. Loved it as usual, Eokat. | |
