Very clever interweaving of 'The Council of Elrond' and 'The Window on the West'. I hope you update soon.

An excellent recasting of the Council from a different POV. I am *so* looking forward to seeing the events falling out as they could have, had Faramir actually taken the journey he was meant to take. This is going to be really interesting.

I am very much interested in seeing his interactions with the other members of the Fellowship--Faramir already has an excellent relationship with Gandalf, and he lacks the suspicion of the Elves that Boromir held. It's going to be a very different dynamic...

This is an interesting tale so far and I'm anxious to see where it is going and how having Faramir on the quest will change things along the way. Will the quest succeed without Boromir's actions? It's an interesting idea. I liked how Erchiron took things into his own hands there... that was a fun way for it to happen. :) I like the way you write Faramir... a strong, noble man and very much a 'book' Faramir it seems to me. Looking forward to more.

Oh, I am definitely intrigued!

I wonder how things will develop: which consequences this will have on the quest. Will Frodo feel the need to leave the others when he isn't threatened by Boromir? And what about Denethor if Boromir doesn't die? So many questions, and I am looking forward to seeing them answered.

Greetings, Nienor
