I'm not much of a hobbit stories reader but the beginning caught me and I couldn't stop until I finished. How sad and moving at first and yet, what a happy, hopeful end. I liked your characters very much, they're Tolkien's but their feelings are universal: Frodo is Frodo but sad and lonely after Bilbo's death, Elrond and Celebrian miss their children, Gandalf is truly Nienna's disciple and the Elfling is every child who's lost his family. Marvelous story!
