| I am glad that he got up the courage to tell her what he had heard. Lovely couple of chapters. | |

| Poor Seraphine, i never guessed her story was so sad! I love little eldarion's caring nature, truly the son of his parents.I agree that Aragorn collects family. | |

| I have long suspected tragedy behind Seraphine's exile, and it seems I was right. It's a very sad story--and yet, somehow, I have a sneaky suspicion that it may not remain sad. How, for example, did that fisherman come to know it, and why did he say her husband was only "presumed" dead? Could it be possible her love might return some day? I do like Eldarion's response to the story: he immediately wants to cling to his own mother, for the idea of the little son and his mother being separated obviously struck a chord within him. And then, with the straightforward honesty he inherits from both parents, he lays the story before Seraphine for confirmation or denial. Seraphine's song sounds slightly familiar--is it an old Scottish tune? (By the way, your formatting seems to have gone slightly awry. Did you mean for the second half of the story to be all in bold?) | |

| Eldarion is very young, whatever he might think. He hasn't yet grasped the connection between tragic histories and the people he knows - it shouldn't take much longer, not considering the people who surround him, most of whom have some ghastly tale in their pasts. Seraphine deals with him very well - and I daresay she's had time enough to grow accustomed. Even though the loss is always there, the pain dims. And Eldarion is a good distraction, even if he must remind her of her son. | |

| It is a sad way to learn the truth of one you've come to respect and honor; and the offer to make her part of the family is part and parcel of the way I believe Aragorn's children would act. So many beloved brothers not born to him Aragorn had, so much loss he knew, having accepted that for himself this was to be expected as the Dunedan. And now a sister of sorts.... | |
