Wonderful story, so nice to see Frodo happy. Linwe seems perfect for him and it's nice to see the Shire coming back to life!!

Bravo! Bravo!! Take your bow, Myst! A sweet and lovely ending!! Gosh darn it--NOW they're finally expecting. Now I'm dying to read Far and Away! See you then! Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent. :-)

This is cool--Linwe and Frodo never thinking to ask Elrond *why* he forbade her to accompany Frodo... Do they confront him? Does Frodo? Onto the last chapter...

This is so sad!!!! It's a bittersweet decision I have to make: do I go on for more angst punishment, or do I stop? NOT! I must go on. I'm hooked! (sniff)

oy...I'm on the edge of my seat. I still don't think I like the idea of Frodo leaving Linwe behind... I know! Linwe could be a stow away--like Isengar! She could hide among the crates of food in the lower holds of Cirdan's ship. No one would have to know...I wouldn't tell a soul. ;-)

You are such an artist! Drawing, weaving words together...absolutely talented, you are. A beautiful chapter, Myst. :-)

"She had spoken to Frodo so bravely of being content for what ever time she could have with him, even if only a day. It was easy to be brave when she did not understand the depth of the sacrifice." - MW

Isn't that so true? We never think of the consequences of our impetuous actions until it's behind us. They say hinde-sight is 20/20.

And the "memorizing"...lovely. Pippin's doing a bit of "memorizing" in an unnamed story...but that is for another time. The conversation in the shed between Sam, Merry, and Pippin was delightfully lighthearted--something I definitely enjoy after all the dramas I've been reading and writing lately! Thanks for sharing. :-)

I haven't often read and responded here, or at ff.net, as I have read nearly all of this during various stages of its being written and made my comments then.

We have laughed and cried and argued together while this story was birthed and raised to maturity. It is a fine, wonderful, heartfelt story; giving Frodo a chance at happiness with a true love that Tolkien denied him.

I am looking foreward to both of your further stories of Frodo and Linwe.

This has been a great and worthwhile effort, congratulations on its completion.

Author Reply: I love you. Thank you so much.

There is still a chance of a wee Frodo yet! They have all of the summer to make another baby... I think I have a bit of futuristic scenario in my head, but as I've been wrong before, I'll keep it to myself this time! :-)

Oy...you're killing me, Myst! You're going to tear my heart out with this story, aren't you??? I guess I had it coming... :'(

Oh no, I wish Frodo wouldn't leave! or at least Linwe be allowed to go with him. I tore my way through this story in two days, and now you've updated...yay! This story is enjoyable, though sad as well. I like the way Linwe and Frodo are connected. I was wondering, if he dies, would she? Hmmm. Please keep writing :)

Author Reply: WOOHOO!!!

You liked it so much you plowed through it. That is what I did when I read LOTR the first time. I am really honored. :):):)

I have just signed on to post chapter 42. Tomarrow, September 22nd, in honor of Frodo and Linwe's birthday, I will be posting chapter forty-three, the last final chapter of this story.

Thank you so much for reading and taking the time to tell me how much you are enjoying it. That means so much to me.
