Elanor is a Feanor/Nerdanel fangirl. I LOVE IT. :D

This is really lovely. You tie the worlds of the Shire and Silm together so well; there's a wonderful sense of Elanor's sense of history, both of her family and of Arda. The details about the house and the old book and her things from childhood were great. I love how you make the connection between her and Feanor. Your Elanor is such a wise, insightful and adventurous young woman--truly a daughter that Sam can be proud of.

Your Elanor is lovely, and I adored the connection between the Shire and Aman you made so easily. Wonderful work. :)
