It is so good to see these now in their correct order - they interlock like pieces of a jigsaw and the whole picture is most pleasing! Smile

That's extremely nice. I like the nuances of their friendship, and the chapter in the forge in very moving. I like the subtle way you showed his effect on Valinor as well.

Thank you, Wombat and Anna - I'm glad you enjoyed the completed tale. Having written them out-of-order and entirely to the B2MEM prompts it's good to know that they do work as a whole!
