| OH my! Poor Elrond! Poor Elros! POOR MAGLOR!! And for good measure... good 'ole Maedhros! LOL You certainly know how to put male elves thru the ringer, French Pony! I'm totally taken with this story and can't wait for the next update! This is some pretty fine angst, and I'm lovin' it! LOL (does that make me a sadist?) :O OH dear... shutting up now... :D | |

| Ai, poor Elros! WHat a difficult day! He will learn a lot from this, I believe, poor child. And I loved the subtle irony of the punishment that MAedhros chose for him! | |

| An exciting chapter! Thank goodness Elrond was rescued - and I'm glad that Elros's instinct was still to run to Maglor for help. That makes me sure that the breach between them will heal eventually. But however badly Elros had behaved, I think that Maglor and Maedhros (as brothers themselves) should have allowed him to see Elrond, to reassure and comfort each other. Even if Elros is still being punished, Elrond needs his twin. Jay | |

| Poor, poor Elros. He can't help but feel miserable to know it is his fault Elrond got into danger, and same with Maglor's being upset. He is alone and miserable right now, even if his brother had the worst of it. I am glad Maedhros calmed down, but I can understand why his anger would be enough to frighten a child! | |

| Poor Elros. Elrond has had a frightening experience, but Elros has come face to face with the consequences of his own actions. Poor baby. | |

| I love this story! Of all the sons of Feanor, Maglor and Maedhros were the only ones I ever liked and even pities (especially Maglor)--the rest of his sons I didn't care for and some I even downright despised, about the same way I feel about Feanor himself.....but I digress.... Anyway, I love this story and how you bring their characters alive. Elros is one character that I don't know very well; it seems few people write about him, and even Maglor and Maedhros don't appear in too many stories, so I'm thoroughly enjoying this introduction to them! the story is getting very interesting, and I am definitely looking forward to more! Great job and thanks for sharing! | |

| Poor Elros. He's worked out enough to be angry, without being entirely sure quite who he's angry with or why. Maedhros is, in many ways, much less forgivable than Maglor - but Maglor is Adar, and so it's bound to be his fault. I'm not surprised that Elrond is upset enough to run. It's not much fun to have your carefully balanced home falling to pieces around you. I'm not sure for whom I feel most sorry here. | |

| What a wonderful story, French Pony! I'm very sad that I have to wait for more chapters.... I'm really wanting instant gratifcation on this one! I'm reading the Sil again (I got so lost the first time, I decided to give it another go.. it's a bit easier this time around, but not by much! LOL), and I don't remember the Battle of Sirion, so I'm looking for that to brush up on the boys history here to help me along. I've never seen Young!Elrond before... I like him! He's cute and cuddly, and so's Elros. What precious boys they are and what a heartbreak for his parents to lose. It's funny though: I don't seem to ever remember reading that either of them "pined for their children"... elves are a strange lot sometimes. At least to humans they are. ::wink:: I also am intrigued by the fact that Maglor and Maedhros are "uncles" and raising the boys, especially if "they" were part of the attacking party... (where is that stupid section? Must find it! LOL) Well, I certainly can't wait to read more from you, and hopefully I'll have a better/fresher idea of the history of this story when the next chapter is posted. Great job! God Bless, Dayna | |

| Oh wow... you know, you always stun me with your writing, in all the best possible ways... but this is just wonderful, and I really needed to read something wonderful tonight. :-) Thank you! I am so afraid for all of them... Elros is being so angry and sad that I want to hug him... Elrond is being SO Elrond-ish, and the sons of Feanor are just magnificent and stunning... this is so well written, the characterizations are exquisite, and it feels SO very real!! I adore this. It is to this era what the King Stag story is to the Greenwood and little Legolas and mourning Thranduil: a realistic, brilliant portrayal of grief and confusion. Thank you SO very much!!! | |

| Elros´youth and confusion come out so clearly! I love it when he cannot decide waht he wants and wants all things at the same time, a frightened child and a revenge'seeker and a survivor aware that they have ben sleeping with the enemy. His concerns are only too well founded, sadly, and the previous situation was quite unnatural for them, now that they know the truth. | |
