"Looking up, she saw the bald pate of a dwarf, gleaming like a miniature moon in the night, and her heart lurched." Oh my god, this line had me laughing 🤣 like damn girl, pointing out how painfully bald he is like that is just cruel 🤣🤣 Dwalin, we love you AND your bald head 😘
I also adore the use of "pebble" for little dwarflings, its adorable 🥺
Ori's Song.....oof, my heart 😢💔
And then immediately you hit me with THIS: "More than once during the quest, Ori had wondered what it would feel like to die. If he’d known then that the loss of his life would return Iora to him, he might have been less careful." Oriiiiii, you sweet darling baby boy 🥺🥺🥺 oh goodness, even further down and he's killing me 😭😭 okay, just this entire Ori section has my heart aching and yearning alongside his. I have a feeling this fic will have me feeling this way a lot 🥺💖
"Dying, Ori found, was the most beautiful thing that had ever happened to him." Girl, I-......not me over here CRYING at this line 😭💔 my goodness, I don't even have words to describe it, this line is just so good. Poetic and poignant and heart-wrenching, those are a good start I think 💖💖💖
"...it wasn’t Dwalin’s tattooed scalp that shone like molten gold in the ethereal gleam..." okay, roast my man again lmao 🤣
"His heart realised the truth before his mind could catch up." sigh 🥰😍💖
As you can see by the timestamps, I had to read the next chapter!!! And it was so goooooood 💖😍 also, I hope you don't mind I was making my comment as I read along 😅 if it's too much, please say so!! There was just so much I enjoyed and wanted to share with you 💖 so excited to read more!!
