Wow! Really powerful! Halbarad's death and all it makes L. realize was really powerfully written. And Halbarad's words were all perfect. That must have been hard to write. Great chapter!

Author Reply: Thanks hon. It was hard to write. Poor Halbarad went through a few re-writes lol He died for a month or so.

Very good chapter,so sad when Halbarad dies as we all knew he had to,but what a nice touch to have her with him to comfort him in his passing, that was so very sweet. I can't wait for more, and I still can't wrap my mind around on how you will end this all and bring all the pieces together in the story but I will just have to wait and see won't I? Thankyou for the wonderful story,Hugs Deb the Imp

Author Reply: Thanks Deb. I wanted to give Halbarad more than a passing mention which Tolkien did. I thought he deserved a bit more.

I rejoice that Halbarad had her by him at the end, and that she was able to find her Elrohir afterwards.

As for the courage it took to ask Glorfindel in the beginning for her hand in marriage...well, that a good deal. She already knows she has married one of the great hearts of Arda! And now she has seen the courage of his mortal kindred as well, and has helped restore the balance with Middle Earth that Sauron might be destroyed.

Author Reply: Along the journey, Laureanna has a great appreciation for mortals which is good because she'll need it for what's coming. ;)~

Very nice...

Poor Laureanna, they locked her up, but still orcs came aboard. And then she sees what real battle is, and Halbarad is injured. I like that she stayed with him as he died and how hard she tried to fight for him when the healers said thier was no hope.
I think Elrohir and Laureanna relationship is growing and even Elrohir is admitting his feelings. I wonder what revengr that she plans to do to the twins for the tea and locking her up.

Nice job...

Her revenge is coming lol But she'll wait until they are out of mortal danger at least. She did get a crash course in war, much like Pippin and Merry did.
