A good look both backwards to Isildur's experience and forward to Aragorn's future.

Lovely story Linda! Just beautiful. I loved how you were able to weave the story of Nimloth and Aragorn's exile together. This was such a relaxing and enjoyable read. Thank-you for sharing it.

Was she not like her forefather now, carrying the seed of her people's hopes to safety? Isildur had been sore wounded in body, while she was sore wounded in spirit. But Isildur had prevailed and preserved the precious seed and so would she.

What a marvelous analogy. Thank you for another lovely story, and wishing you a Merry Christmas and a very happy new year.

A nifty twist on the story of Gilraen and Aragorn. I like how the story of Isildur's rescuing the imperiled fruit of Nimloth gave Gilraen hope and strength during troubled times.
