Chapter 4

He's not going to accept Legolas back? Grrrr, really starting to detest Thranduil now! (And loving it!)

Aw, Malthen is so sweet! Yet quite depressing aswell, with all his death talk...

I do not like the Healer's prediction of needing to see Legolas quite a lot over the next few years... though it is also quite accurate. Still, not a nice thoguht to have...

I'd love to know who Legolas was arranged to wed. If you care to drop a name, I'd grately appreciate it. (just curious as to who it is (or was))

Now, I'll have to do the other 20 chapters a bit later, but I will do them, I promise.

But, loving this story so much right now and would love a new update every minute! But, knowing that is impossible, I will settle for whenever you finish the chapters. I guess I shall just have to learn to be patient. But, if I haven't been able to do so in the 18 years of my life, I doubt I'm going to now. lol

Chapter 2

THAT BASTARD!!!! How could anyone do that to their son? To Their ONLY son? In all honesty, I'm getting kinda tired of reading fics where Thranduil is a bastard, yet I'm loving that he is in Feud!

And, while I know it's good that the Men stopped Leggy from killing hiimself, I'm also annoyed that they can't understand that the Elves' way of doing things are different from their own and should not interefere. Then again, it won't do if the main character died, so at the same time I'm glad they did stop him.

Chapter 1

OH GOD! Poor Legolas! (Well, I'm assuming it's Legolas, I hope I'm not wrong. But, really, I know I'm not wrong 'cos I've already read all this story and now I'm going to bac rev review all the chapters. I was going to review as I read, but I got too into the story to stop until I'd finished reading up to where you have done.) I can't believe Elves can be so cruel! Yet Men so kind... kind of a reverse role from what a lot of other stories are like.

I swear, this must be one of the best opening chapters I have ever read. No character names are given so readers' curiosity is peaked as to know who is doing this to themself. The reason behind the Elves encouraging suicide is yet unkown. and a cliff hanger at the end... NO WONDER I GOT SO CAUGHT UP IN THE PLOT!!!! I only regret not reading this fic sooner.

Ok, on with the next chapter.

Ch. 24: Another great chapter. Enjoyed the action very much, since you write it so well that it is always clear as to what's going on. One of the reasons I love this tale so is because even though Legolas is a victim of much abuse, he remains a formidable warrior.

It's interesting how my reactions to the Noldor have changed since they arrived in the Greenwood. At first I villified Erestor after he was fong ong our hero while he slept. At that time I thought well of Elrond, despite his sneakiness, because of his apparent concern over Legolas' condition. But then, the fascinatingly deep layers beneath Elrond's character began to be revealed, and as Legolas said, he began to use his healing talents as a sword against Legolas, and he couldn't stand the realization of some of his own faults. He was capable of such cruelty that I turned completely against him. Now I find myself feeling more fondly toward Erestor, even though I know the two Noldor are still up to no good. It's been a fascinating ride for me concerning those two. Looking forward to more, as usual.

wow!
wonderful!
though i must admit i thought legolas would not take care of the wound, i thought he might wish to end his life, it's good that you made him sucjh an unpredictable and strong charcter.
i'm really starting to hate elrond, and i'm also suprised he did what he did last chapter, he did know that legolas suffered past abuse, so did he really expect him to not be so angry that elrond had basically raped him?
he is a healer after all, he should know better. does he even feel slightly guilty?
also wanted to know, is legolas still suffering from grief?

Ch. 23: I wish for a strong gale to rush in through Tawar and blow both Elrond and his noble genitals right off the talan, crashing him onto the forest floor, and breaking every bone in his Noldor body! Sorry for that emotional outburst, but that is the way this story affects me. Another wonderful chapter. The complexity of Elrond's character gets better and better, and the plot thickens delightfully. Now I must summon the patience to wait and find out what Erestor will attempt towards our feral elf. Poor Legolas--nearly cried when I read the line about his fng tng that he attracts those who hurt him like Elrond did, but didn't know why or how to change it. It's so tragically true. He must start listening to those instinctive flutterings in his stomach, as they are trying to warn him! The story continues to fascinate and your writing continues to excel. Thank you!

The world is so cruel and insecure for Legolas.
I really admire him for surviving this.
Will there be happy days in his life?
How far should he go?

Please, update soon.
I'm living to read your story these days.

Ch. 22--This update made my weekend! This feral elf you've drawn is quite a remarkable tragic character. I can see again in this chapter in his interaction with Elrond how Legolas continues to think so differently from those around him, primarily concerned with the feelings of others when present rather than himself. He has more reason that anyone to fill his heart with thoughts of hate and revenge, constantly plotting as all those around him do, but no--it's not even conceivable for him, both a blessing and a curse. I can see why Mithrandir saw something special in him and knew he was meant for a greater purpose. And Elrond is such an interesting character in this tale. I've known people just like him that seem to have one side that is caring and concerned with the welfare of another, and a seemingly diametrically opposed side that uses and abuses those he seems to care for to achieve his own ambitions. Intriguing to imagine where this latest, very emotional encounter will take them. The description of Tawar's history and interaction with Legolas, fromore ore his birth, is fascinating. I take solace in the trees myself, though I don't climb them. Thinking of them as taking care of Legolas is very touching. And Legolas' realizations of the truth about hisher her and Malthen was heartbreaking but handled so well so as not to be cloying. Finally, I miss Fearfaron, and thus was thrilled by his letter. Thank you!

(For the three last chapters)
Arg... I knew there was something up and that it was not Erestor. But I have never suspected that guy to be ElrondAnd And I find him horrible. How could he be so heartless and punish Legolas for something that happened so many years ago, when he was not even born. Tss... Nasty Elrond... I wass feeling really sorry for Legolas, especially when he thought of his relationship with M. It should be terrible to realize such things.
I was surprised to see Elrond so 'nice' in the last chapter. Well... Perhaps Legolas' grief echoed his own. I am hopeless, i know, but I hope something good will happen between them, that they will both heal the wounds of their hearts. But Elrond would have to tell the truth to L about him, and that wouldn't be an easy task...
Special mention to the description of the bond between the elves and the forest. It was beautiful.
Great story.
Thanks
Cas

I've been following this story on LIC, but am glad to see it getting exposure in other places as well. The word that best sums up your tale for me is "astonishing." Your writing has great literary quality, going far beyond what one would normally expect in fanfiction. The complexity of your characters, as well as the intricacy with which you paint their emotional lives, makes them absolutely compelling. Each OC is expertly drawn, and your superb rendering of the well-known and oft written about characters makes them come alive like never before. Your treatment of the forest as a living, breathing character, and the detail with which you describe the elves and their relationship to it, makes this story outshine any others I've read. Absolutely first-rate. The emotional depth and anguish you bring forth is heartbreaking and utterly realistic without being blatantly manipulative, and has produced a visceral reaction and tears from me many, many times--not easy to do. The political intrigue involving multiple characters with varying motives is handled with great care--never muddled, always plausible, continually fascinating--yet is subtle enough that we must keep guessing. And your handling of erotica deserves high-praise. For once, I've found an author who doesn't use the tired, worn o"sta"standard" phrases for sexual activity that seem to plague most less imaginative slash fanfiction. Additionally, your characters' sexual encounters are much like in real life--messy, complicated, and often heartbreaking. To sum up, every paragraph of this tale is a precious gift, and I thank you for sharing your unique talent, preparation, and hard work with your readers.

Wow... I don't know whether to commend you or curse you. Your writing is exceptional as always but I can't remember the last time I have been more disturbed by a story. The cruelty of Elrond's actions takes my breath away. I never thought I would ever find myself liking Erestor more.

What I found most surprising was the the thing that disturbed me the most was the earring. The though of marring in suc a way Legolas seems almost defiling. As if Elrond would be makinm asm as property, a possession. The thought of this turns my stomach. PLEASE don't put that earring into his ear! It seems a further rape of his body.

I am really anxious to see where you go from here. I am so involved in this story that hurts to Legolas wound me as well. Be kind! I don't know how much more we can take. se use update soon so that I can resume breathing.

Each paragraph, each chapter is so rich, so loaded with meaning and portent.
I slowly savor and then reread each new entry. Love the angst, the intrigue, and
all your marvelous characters. I cnly nly pray that someday someone will truly
love and appreciate your beautiful, tortured, sensual Legolas . . .

Forgive my lateness in catching up with all your updates. You know how much I absolutely adore this story. This last chapter was certainly fulfilling for both Legolas and me. Finally, some of that highly charged tension has been relieved. Can't wait for the morning after though. This should be very interesting.

Once again, your writing is impeccable. I have to admit, I really like your diverse use of the English language to describe love scenes. The same old words get pretty boring after awhile.
