Wow! Powerful and very sad!

I must say that I'm glad you started a 'new' grouping. I had the darndest time trying to find out what I'd read and not.... So this is great - hopefully, I will keep up with you!

Lovely drabble... a very difficult time for all concerned... and I loved the three-way farewell.

Author Reply: I was finding it hard to keep track of the stories too - so time for a new series!

This must have been a dreadfully sad time for all concerned, but I wanted the twins and Arwen to be together at the moment of parting.

This is very nice, sweet, but sad.
You have to feel the sorrow they feel knowing they'll not see her for a long time.

Nice touch

Author Reply: I think they were probably aware that there was a chance they'd never see her again. The choice between mortality and immortality lay ahead for all of them.

Beautiful drabblet, Jay! It must have been terribly hard for them. Glad they didn't know then that at least Arwen would never sail ...

Author Reply: Yes - if Celebrķan and Arwen had known it was their final parting, it would have been even sadder than it was. I firmly believe that Elladan and Elrohir were reunited with their mother, though!

*sniff, blowing nose for second time* I crumbled with Elrohir. Good write.

Author Reply: I think he'd try to be strong for Celebrķan's sake - but he's not made of stone, and can't help showing his sense of grief and loss. Thank you!

For Celebrian this must have been so difficult. The grief is well conveyed.

Author Reply: Thank you - it must have been so hard for everyone :(

This is so touching, Jay! *sniffles*

What a horrendous experience that must have been.

Author Reply: It must have been terrible for all of them - Elladan and Elrohir blaming themselves for not rescuing her sooner; Elrond blaming himself for not being able to heal her; and Celebrķan blaming herself for not being strong enough to stay.

Thank you!

how sad! *pokes out bottom lip* i love how you write elrohir!

Author Reply: Thank you - Elrohir is my favourite character to write (can you tell?) and I find it quite easy now to get inside him and think how he'd react. Despite trying to be strong for Celebrķan's sake, he can't hide his sorrow.

Beautiful. This made me cry...

Author Reply: Thank you! I've always imagined Elladan and Elrohir supporting each other at this time - but Arwen needed her brothers as well.
