Of Elves, Men and Peredhil  by Rhyselle 3 Review(s)

And what a sweet image this is, knowing tomorrow he will greet the Sea, but tonight he sleeps!

Author Reply: I'm so glad you liked this, Larner. So much of THE SILMARILLION is sad and tells of desperate circumstances. It's nice to be given a glimpse of a simpler, happier event from the perspective of one who is young enough to not view the world through experienced, cynical eyes.

Nice bit of extrapolation here! I love how you took the song of Ulmo and the journey and applied it to the way a child like Earendil would see the world.

Author Reply: I do especially like imagining the characters as small children... :) This drabble really just sort of appeared "full grown" in my mind. I wish I could draw the picture of him snuggled up against Tuor's shoulder!

Very well done meldenya! I loved the imagery of the whole chapter, it's beautiful!

(By the way, what happened to Chapter One? It vanished!)

Author Reply: Thanks for the heads up on Chapter One. I fixed it. :)

I'm so glad you are enjoying the drabbles. I hadn't intended to focus so much on Earendil, but I've got to write what the Muse dictates. Hopefully she will give me some stuff on Elrond and Elros, too.
