Hey all, I've posted a revised chapter three and I've also posted this story (revised chapters only) over on Ao3 if anyone seeing this prefers that site. I'm still working on these edits but there is a lot to be done in order for me to be satisfied with a chapter. Mostly because 13 year old me had some serious internalized misogyny so I am reworking some of the pre-middle earth events for Sakura to correct that. Really at the end of the day this is a love letter to my younger self and if there are any young impressionable folks reading this I don't want them parroting anything I said that was learned from other fics over a decade ago. Love you all and stay safe and healthy!
