I have also been thinking about the moment when Thranduil heads for the door after his visit in Estels chamber in Thranduils palace.I wonder what hes thinking..maybe about his son injured after battle or himself in his youth or maybe about Oropher.Maybe Thranduil and Estel have a lot more in common than they think.Both have lost family , both are stubborn and either Thranduils son nore Estel nore knew their mothers. Maybe these are thoughts that comes to Thranduil as he sees Estel.

Hooray! Finally the long awaited hot bath. No Dorwinion yet, but now that Aragorn knows there is a hot spring, I suspect he will be back. I do not know why he was ashamed that he moaned in pleasure. I am sure he was not the first to do so in that spot.

You are also doing a good job in describing the depression that a painful and long recovery brings. Irrational thoughts are so much more real.

Thank you for a great job.

Bathed and cared for and fed and healing at last... whew. What a lovely chapter. But oh my... is that Gandalf come at last?

I'm sorry you're having a tough month. It seems as if the pace andstresses of life have sped up for so many of us recently, with little time to indulge in the joy of imagining and crafting stories.

Oh dear finally a bath for Estel! I almost felt the smell and dirt myself! Estel and Thranduil play on each other so well in your story and they are both humble and gracious.I love them both!Helegond is an absolute treasure too .I was so amused by the new guest in the end and I can guess who t is but I dont want to spoil the fun for the rest of your readers 😄 I laughed sl hard at the threat of roasting someone hahahaha!Fantastic writing !

What a wonderful chapter! Having spent several days in the wild in rain and mud and not been able to wash because of the cold for too long, I can get a glimpse of what it felt like for Aragorn to have a proper bath. And I know all about how nice a hot tub feels on sore muscles. Though I imagine it pales in comparison to what he's feeling! He deserved such wonderful pampering and I hope it helps.

Hum, could that be Gandalf arriving I wonder? Or someone else? Can't wait for the next chapter!
