What a marvelous story, Linda, and a lovely closing chapter. I enjoyed this story very much, and will be sure to re-read it.

Wonderful story!

I found it very fitting that at the moment when Aragorn was exhausted and full of doubts about his abilities, Gandalf came to show him the way.

And he was right :-)

Ah--he calls and Faramir answers, turning from the Light. Wonderful that they can begin their friendship so, and he is able to regain his confidence in such a manner. And I still rejoice that Bergil was able to find the athelas!

Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review. I was inspired by Raksha, who was I think the first to hint that Aragorn himself gained through this wonderful healing.It is too easy to overlook Beregond, just a great character.

Hi Linda, I can only agree to the former review. This is one of the best stories I´ve read about Aragorn becoming the healer we know him to be. Very well done. Thank you. Lai

Linda, I've already told you, but it bears repeating. I found this last part the perfect ending for this lovely and touching narrative of the difficult path Aragorn had to thread to become a full-fledged healer.

Well done indeed.
