| What a TRIUMPHANT FINISH! 'It sounded like a promise, and not a mere wish"...a promise, or a blessing! I am sure that those children will lead the procession of citizens of the city who will come to welcome their Queen, in time. Arwen, the ancient being with millenia of diplomatic experience, has put Merchant Turambor at ease. Quite rightly, he did begin the process of those who came to help. And in coming together to help the helpless, the several armies re-discovered their common humanity. You have done great justice to the descriptions from the book of the labors of those from the Wood and the Mountain in renewing the city. Renewing ... and blessing! You have very nicely woven in all of the remaining threads of the story. Very Well Done! | |

| The hobbits again saved the day! Of course they did. Who better to touch the hearts and preserve the honour of proud, defeated warriors but the pure-hearted hobbits? Thank you for sharing this story! | |

| What a great first impression Aragorn made to Gondor's (former) enemy! | |

| What a great story! I like how you set the Haradrim to be the rescuers of Pippin, Bergil and Mittens. | |

| "It was quite convenient to be a Halfling in Minas Tirith in those days." Of course it was! Thank you for sharing this delightful story. | |

| What an interesting way to bargain! I can imagine Sam shaking his head many times in disbelief, and perhaps polite disapproval. | |

| Hobbits are so much fun. And you write about them so delightfully, especially the part about "hobbit healing" = hugs. Aww... Nice take on the Haradrim too, and the way they finally found out that they'd been lied to. And such a sweet ending. Beautiful writing.

| Ah, this was such a sweet story; and with excellent world-building, too! I'm glad to see it come to completion. Author Reply: Thanks so much! I appreciate your taking the time to read and leave some encouraging words. Glad to have you along for the ride! Completing the story was bittersweet; it was my last tie to Pandemonium, one of the models for Mittens. But it was also a good thing to be able to mark one of the WIPs "Complete" at last. I've been working on several of the WIPs in the background, so now I feel as if I have space to start publishing chapters from another story. I'm also carving out some reading time and looking forward to reading more about Náli and Rei. My only trouble is the broader background of your tale and the knowledge of what happened to Balin and those who followed him. You have breathed such life into this minor canon character; he's become quite real to me. | |

| How sweet for both Mittens and Peace. They have such honorable positions in the new order of the White City! Delightful! Author Reply: The pair of them will carry on Pippin's determination and his self-imposed mission of bringing playfulness and joy back into the lives of Minas Tirith's children. It's a tall order, but I am confident that they'll excel in carrying out their duties. Thanks so much for stopping to leave a good word. Looking forward to seeing you later this month! (((hugs))) | |

| Mittens and her kitten getting so much love! The City finding its colorful and bustling self again! The ladies seeing the City through the eyes of a young hobbit, and the citizens seeing them all as people -- not just remote celebrities. Thank you for such a lovely Epilogue, and congratulation on finishing your Tale. I enjoyed this story so much, my friend. Author Reply: Thank you for staying with me to the end of this tale, dear friend. It's been years in the making! I am so glad to hear you enjoyed it, and I appreciate your taking the time to stop and share your thoughts. (((hugs))) | |
