I really like this. Not a common topic and well written, including the hints at the historical context and the oral history of Earendi's victory.

This is a wonderful little story - it made me picture the scene by your words.  Loved the historical background and how long such an ancient legend can have a hold on people who feel a part of it.  And what such a legend can mean to each individual.  The son was very astute as well as understanding of the cycle he was within, I think I liked that best of all.  Thanks for writing this.

I stumbled across this by chance and I'm really glad I did. Eriol has a safe place in my heart and you find so little written about him. I really enjoyed this little piece - are you planning to write more?

This was very powerful and I loved the idea.
