Hope, in Darkened Days by Idrils Scribe
Fanwork Notes
A Holiday gift for the wonderful Anoriath, without whose sage advice, kindness and support many of my stories would never have existed. Reading your work is a delight I always look forward to, and I'm in awe of your OC's and characterization skills. This story is practically fanfic for 'No Man's Child', with an honorable mention for Aragorn's favorite legume.
I hope you have a great festive season! (proceeds to stuff box of pralines and bottle of bubbly through transatlantic internet cable).
Many thanks to my wonderful beta's Anérea and Grundy.

Summary:
"But when Estel was only twenty years of age, it chanced that he returned to Rivendell after great deeds in the company of the sons of Elrond; and Elrond looked at him and was pleased, for he saw that he was fair and noble and was early come to manhood, though he would yet become greater in body and in mind. That day therefore Elrond called him by his true name, and told him who he was and whose son; and he delivered to him the heirlooms of his house."
