Wow! Great job. If this is what Star Trek is like maybe I should watch/read it:)

Ok, all you Arda writers.... Quit Making Me Cry! :) This was a wonderful story! I love how Boromir comes to Faramir's aid, even in (near)death. I really, really liked this a lot. Very touching.

*grin* It has been said that my stories should come with tissues.

This is such a novel and touching interpretation of Faramir's healing. I'd like to think it really happened this way.

Thanks, Meckinock. I'd never really given any thought to the healing before, but, yeah, I think I'd like it to have happened this way too.

Lovely, Avon. You can feel how lost Faramir is, and yet love brings him home.

Thanks, Daw. That sums up exactly what I was hoping to get across.

“Another will take you now, Faramir.” This is lovely!

Thanks! I was really worried that people wouldn't get the handover.

whoa! nice delivery w/ the sentiments and i loved the ending. it is always nice to find your way out of the shadows. it's nice ot have someone point out the "mistakes" beforehand. i hd no idea unnoticed wasn't a word! i probably mispelled it here along w/ mispelled. i hate spelling. again great fic! if i sound kinda washed out, it's because it's 1:37 am here and i haven't slept all yesterday, good night!

Thanks! Spelling can be a pain, can't it? I can mostly only spell what I can hear - so double letters are my downfall; I just double everything on suspicion ;-)

I like stories where Boromir hangs around and helps the others from beyond the veil. And I can think of no-one he would want to help more than his little brother. It's good to see him handing the care of his brother over to Aragorn and the living.

Author's reply

Thanks for the feedback. I like to think of Aragorn taking care of Faramir for Boromir.

A lovely interpretation of Faramir's journey through that dark vale. Yes, it's AU, but who cares! Wonderful Boromir/Faramir interaction, you can feel the closeness of their bond. And I loved Boromir's giving Faramir to Aragorn's care for the final leap of the journey.

Author's reply

Thanks, Raksha. I like to see Aragorn as in some ways taking the role of big brother to Faramir - and I like to believe that Boromir knows and is more at peace because of that.
