Emotions in the Elderling Realm (SPOILERS all books)

[ElminsterX2]

A part that I've just reread that got me choked up and brought a tear to my eye was in FF when Fitz is going through his belongings and decides that he's going to give Dutiful Verity's sword. Dutiful looks at it and says this isn't right and races out of the room, Fitz is dismayed and wonders how he ever thought the boy could understand the gift. Then dutiful comes in all boyishly grinning from ear to ear and hands Fitz Chivalry's sword. Just gives me shivers thinking about it even now.

Of course Nighteyes dying always gets me, the dream sharing they have about Nighteyes running over the snow hunting a deer he knows he cannot bring down himself. Then Fitz wakes up and Nighteyes is still on his lap.

The moment that hit me the most was in FF when Burrich is so full of fury at the stone dragon threatening his son that he screams out in rage and repels it, and brings the dragon to its knees.

Those final few chapters of FF are so filled with emotion. Burrich dying, Fitz finding the Fool's body. Fitz finding out exactly how painful it was for the Fool to die. Fitz finding the flayed skin from the fools back and just leaving it in the ice, deciding that was never a part of him but something the Pale Woman had done to him. Fitz bringing the Fool back to life. Fitz finally meeting Nettle. Fitz getting back all of the memories he put into the stone dragon. When he finally drops all of his lies and tells Molly and her family who and what he is. So so much that just gets the emotions rolling.
