| Well, one day Erestor will be in a position to learn the answer to that question! A most interesting conundrum! And a moment of sadness, finding Glorfindel's tower that way. Author Reply: If you recognised the puzzle, I'm *very* pleased. :D Writing these drabbles made me realise exactly how long it was since I'd written the story they fit in with. | |

| Ah! Surrogate aunts and uncles have been known to fill the heads of children with nonsense before.... Heh! But after the memories of realms lost.... Author Reply: It is a rather stark contrast, isn't it? But no one can weep forever -- or if they did, they'd be over the sea to Aman. Thank you for reading! | |

| What a fascinating anthology, Clodia - I can just see Celebrian and Melinna merrily experimenting with beautiful colors. My favorite piece is Rubia Tinctoria; Erestor's attitude is just so perfectly male - why fuss about dyes and clothing while camping and tramping through the wilds - I had to laugh. Author Reply: I'm very glad you found these interesting! I'm interested in natural dyes myself, so it's a bit hard for me to judge this collection as a neutral reader, if that makes sense. I was afraid it might all be a rather dry topic, so it's wonderful to hear you liked these. Thank you for reading and for reviewing, as ever! :D (And, well, you can't blame Erestor: he was hungry. ;) I'm glad you laughed!) | |

| "Inez?" he said. "What sort of a villain's name is that?" You know, there is a fight taking part in my mind about whether or not I want to know the history behind that! ;-) Author Reply: Ohhh, I'm sure it wouldn't be *too* hard to find if you went looking for it. Probably. :'D | |

| Forgot to say on ffn: I like the sensory quality of these miniatures, the way the characters touch the materials. It's very real and very evocative. Author Reply: That's wonderful to hear! Thank you for taking the time to drop by here and let me know. :D | |

| Another triumph for you, Clodia. As a former weaver and spinner, I have used many of these items for color. With Melina's delight in weaving in Imladris shared with Celebrian, it's like double-trouble :-) Thank you for making my day (even if I WILL be slightly, ever so slightly, late for work). - Erulisse Author Reply: //As a former weaver and spinner, I have used many of these items for color.// So have I! It's nice to meet someone who shares such an esoteric hobby. Although I am mostly a spinner -- but I dabble in dyeing and one day I'll take up weaving just to use up all my thread. :D And thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. I'm glad you enjoyed this set and I hope you weren't too late! | |

| I'm not normally very keen on drabbles, but I really like these. Author Reply: That's really good to hear! Thank you so much for reading, and for letting me know. :D | |

| A lovely progression of tree-related drabbles. All were thoughtfully written; but the first, the Apple vignette, was especially delightful. Author Reply: I'm so glad you think so! Especially about the Apple drabble -- it was the first time I'd tried my hand at drabbling, and I wanted a snippet about beginnings to set the tone. Thank you for reading and for reviewing, as ever! | |

| Indeed, a lovely tribute to her foremother. Author Reply: I'm very glad you think so. Thank you for reading! | |

| A lovely set of drabbles, and nice to see Erestor's take on events having to do with each tree. Author Reply: It's so good to hear you enjoyed these drabbles. Thank you for reading! | |
