Ahhhhh thank you so SO much, Nonnie!
AWW WAIT WHAT, I made you feel sorry for Sauron and not Mahal?! WHOOPS, author fail, whoooooops!!! 😀
eeep, yeah, the Sam moment, with the ‘I didn’t leave him’ – that was something I’ve wanted to write for AGES. So. Yep. *dodges the flying vegetables*
OOOH I am thrilled you liked the quiet little moment with Thorin and his decision about his beard! For such a short and unobtrusive little scene, it’s actually the culmination of a LOT of character threads and development, and lots of stuff that came before… like, a physical indication of just how far he has come, it’s actually a hugely big moment, wrapped up in a very small and gentle one 🙂
Hrera is my darling Queen of the Universe and I adore her lots.
HEHEHE, I am so happy you liked the letters, thank you! Thank you for a lovely comment and a lovely review, Nonnie!
