Elladan and Elrohir's Not So Excellent Adventure  by Fiondil 3 Review(s)
BodkinReviewed Chapter: 5 on 11/4/2006
I'm not surprised Celebrian is stressed - and I'm hoping she and Elrond are reacting to the crisis we know has passed.

Glorfindel on man-intimidation-mode is most impressive. And I suspect that Valandil will be only too happy to have the elves pass through quickly. As long as his people haven't done anything to upset them along the way!

Author Reply: My beta-reader said when she read this chapter that she liked seeing Men through the eyes of the Firstborn rather than the other way around. It made for a nice change from the usual stories. The idea that the humans thinking the elves actually needed an escort out of the city must have seemed hilarious to the elves and only the grimness of their mission (and their innate courtesy) prevented them from laughing outright.

And Glorfindel in any mode is impressive, as far as I'm concerned.

I love the way you keep going back between all of the parties concerned,it gives so many view points of the story, Elleden and Elrohir are blissfully ignorant of all who are trying to protect them,but that is youth is it not?,I know I have been felt to a degree some of the panic about some of the things my kids tried when they were younger(glad those days are past)sometimes,I hope the twins make it okay will be waiting for more!

Author Reply: I don't think any of us truly realize just how "closely watched" we were by our elders who only wished us the best. Only when we are older do we really appreciate what they went through for our sakes. Hopefully the twins will come to realize this, too, someday.
