| Ha! I'm finally caught up! I've really been enjoying this story, even if there are a few things that I have some issues with. I love your characterization, and I appreciate the way that you create convincing OC's. Very nice. A few opinions though- I don't think you really need as many flashbacks to your own stories, especially not long ones. They tend to interrupt the flow of the story a bit too much. Also, I doubt that most elves would know who has the elven rings, especially in the case of Elrond. Glorfy and the immediate family- sure. All of the elves living in Rivendell (such as the bad guy in the last story)- not so much. It has become a central part to the story, s I understand why you need it, I just doubt that it is particularly cannon. Anyways, I've really enjoyed everything thus far, and I can't wait to read more developments! Keep it up! Author Reply: Hi, Nikara, I'm just getting around to trying to answer your questions. Yes, I absolutely stumbled into the mistake regarding Elrond's ring. I can only claim ignorance. I've been learning more as I go along. I understand your thoughts about the flashbacks too. You're probably right, but I tend to write what I am feeling at the time. It's not the best way to write, but it seems to work for me. My muse seems to be very particular about what she feeds me. Lastly, even though I try to be as accurate as possible, this story is AU and not totally canon. (Gee, I hope I did not forget to put that in the story breakdown!) Hugs, Cindy | |

| Alright, all caught up now, and wow, I'm impressed. Can't wait for the rest of it, because you've got me hooked. Like I said before, I love how you wrote Thranduil. And, of course, my favourite elf-knight ever, Elrohir. Beautiful writing. Author Reply: Hello Tira, Thanks so much for your review! I am so glad that you are enjoying how I write Thranduil. Oh my, another Elrohir fan, huh? Well, my friend, I am about to rock your world later on because Elrohir and Thranduil are going to go head to head in about 20 chapters. It should be very interesting! ; ) I will be very curious to hear your ractions to those scenes! Hugs, Cindy | |

| WOW! When I asked for the next installment you were ready! I am really enjoying this and now that I am late for bed and all caught up :-) I will wait for the next installment. LOL Thanks Ithil-valon, Idril | |

| Hee Hee! I love that last line. Legolas, I have a feeling that Glorfy isn't going to be particularly pleased that you just said that! On another note- when I asked you to update, I didn't realize that it would mean this! Yikes! You've had a ton of those chapters tucked away, haven't you? I'm loving, but I'm definitely not going to be able to get through them all tonight. Just know that I'm happily reading away! Author Reply: Don't worry about it, Nikara! I'm just thrilled that someone is reading. : ) There are plenty of chapters left for you to read, so there is no hurry. Take your time and enjoy! Hugs, Cindy | |

| Alright, so while that wasn't the most evil place you could have left off, it was still rather evil. I'm definitely enjoying this story. Why oh why do I like H/C fics so much? Oh well. This is great, and I also enjoyed its predecessor very much. Keep it up, and please update soon! | |

| How magnificent Thranduil is! He just oozes majesty doesn't he?! It wouldn't surprise me if, after one meeting with the twins, he would be able to tell them apart! And Legolas...*sigh* I want him! Author Reply: Hi Ces!! I'm working on Chapter 69! I am finally starting to get some inspiration back! Whew, I was getting worried that my muse had left me permanently! Hugs, Cindy | |

| Poor Estel; little does he know that his saviors are entering his ada's realm! But he has two loyal followers hot on his heels! | |

| I had read Elladan's Trials, for Estel a while back and loved it (especially the sunshine blankey) and when I saw you had this work in prosgrees I had to begin. I like how you've written Thranduil so far (most people make him out to be mean). Can't wait for a new chapter! Author Reply: Thanks so much for your review, Tira. I'm really glad you liked Elladan's Trials for Estel, and hope that you find Healing Hope equally entertaining. Hugs, Cindy | |

| Poor Legolas - does he really think his father doesn't know everything that goes on?! Especially in regards to his son! I love to see how the relationship between Estel and Legolas grows. Slowly, as most do, yet Legolas has already fallen under his spell. Yes, I hope these reviews encourage you to write the next installment! I'm wondering about Elladan! Ces | |
