| I'm only now getting around to reviewing these. I'm a sucker for afterlife fics if they're done well and this one certainly was. It was so good to see Isildur's regrets--unfortunately certain films have made sure that unless we try hard we focus only on his chief flaw and never the very compelling reasons for his fall. Tindalome has it right--it's all part of a bigger story. Author Reply: I am very happy you liked this one. Afterlife fics are not easy to write. I too was very disappointed by Isildur's portrayel in the films. they took an amazing, pivitol, character, and reduced him to this scummy, selfish, man. In my stories, I try to illustrate the reasons for that fall, and it started long before Numenor even fell. I'm so very happy you liked this. I really do appreciate the reviews! "hugs" | |

| I rejoice they know this reunion; and Valandil will be there with his own family all too soon. Author Reply: They just "had" to be reunited again. And I felt comforted knowing Vandil would be with his family again. I imagine he had a very deep love for his mother, and tried to illustrate that through his understanding and acceptance of letting her go home. This story was comfortng to write. Thank you so very much for the review! "hugs" | |
