This is great! Thank you for recommending it to me. And you were spot-on with my favorite part of "Full of Surprises," though of course I totally forgot to say anything about it in my review. I could just imagine young Ragnor's dreams of one day saving his Captain's life in some fierce battle. I love how the tables have been turned on the young man, and he is saving Aragorn's life in what may be perhaps a more dramatic turn of events. I'm eager to read the conclusion once the Captain wakes up!

I suspect that such an experience was almost inevitable as Thorongil led his men through battles in the defense of Gondor. Ragnor doesn't yet appreciate the significance of the ring worn on a chain about his Captain's neck--perhaps he eventually shall?

Linda, this is a most lovely and bittersweet tale, which illustrates very subtly Aragorn's plight when fought as Thorongil for Gondor. You've done a great job of depicting his loneliness and his longing.

Oh yes, everyone loves Thorongil! Lets hope Ragnor takes good care of that ring...It is over 6,000 years old after all. I'm very interested as to where you take this...You seem to be setting it up to have Ragnor finding out just who his captain is, but you could take it in a completely different direction too! Hope to see an update soon.
