I cried. Ivaloriel of Telthorelandor died? I was hoping that he'd make it to the Flower Forest. It's just so sad to see that the Elves have lost so much!

Otherwise, the draft might still be slightly unpolished, but I really love your style of writing enough that it still seemed natural to me.

Please keep posting! I'm so glad to see you're back! It fills me with JOY
