Adagio   by Rose Sared 5 Review(s)

Gleowyn's speech to the mob was brilliant, and it seemed very realistic that in spite of her wit she was terrified. She is quite a gal.I like it that you are fixing her up with Telfaren.

It gave me a chuckle that Elfwine considered the possibility that Legolas had bounced him on his knee when he was a babe. I loved this description of the elf entering the hall:

"...the Lord of Ithilien was announced and then strode down the dim length of the great hall towards him, shining slightly in the shafts of light like some legend embroidered on the venerable tapestries that decorated the walls."

I could see that. Elves should always seem magical. ~TF



Author Reply: Yes, I try to make elves magical, and most importantly not human, with all the complications of culture and relationships that such an alien to us species would create. I have always felt that inherited power must feel a little shaky in the prescence of those that have known them as powerless, that difference again as above.

What a wonderful story! Very original. I love the relationship between Aragorn and Legalos and Gimli and Legalos. You can feel their pain! I couldn't stop reading it. Good job! Arienwen

Oh, dear, that was hilarious! Gleowyn is hysterical, Telfaren is so sweet and Frecern sounds like the disgruntled boyfriend of an Orlando Bloom fangirl--"effete catamite," indeed! The bit with Legolas and Elfwine was quite funny. I can imagine that it would be unnerving to have to deal politically with someone who knew you when you were in diapers. This is such a good story.

Author Reply: I appreciate the support and am glad you found it fun.

Things are looking up - Gimli is found and recovering, Gleowyn is back home, and she has defused the unpleasant situation looming about dwarves. I only hope her ex-fiance gets his just desserts soon!
