This was very interesting, and to me very revealing. I'm not usually reading DĂșnedain/men stories, so I'm not very familiar with the characters, settings and situations beyond the reading of LotR. You brought this people and your characters very much alive to me, and I enjoyed reading about this difficult moment in their history and lives. The way they tackle future and hope despite all the pain and despair is perhaps difficult to grasp for us modern, western people, and certainly not easy to write, but you're evoking the sense and feel of a different culture to ours, one where surviving means much more than existing, and where pain also is a means to power hope.
