lumière s'éteint (light dies)

[prints]

Inspired by the second line of this verse from "Lumière s’éteint" (spoilers):

Si le temps se perd à contre-courant, If time loses itself to the tide, Les miroirs sans tain dévoilent leur nature One-way mirrors reveal their nature Si nos pulsations jouent à contre-cœur, If our hearts beat against their will, Notre amour veillera sur la mesure Our love will guard the rhythm Lumière s’éteint Light dies

Who can see whom through a one-way mirror depends on which side is brighter. As light (lumière) fades, a mirror becomes a window, and an illusion breaks.

[...] Turgon said: 'Fight not against doom, O my children! Seek ye who may safety in flight, if perhaps there be time yet: but let Tuor have your lealty.' But Tuor said: 'Thou art king', and Turgon made answer: 'Yet no blow will I strike more', and he cast his crown at the roots of Glingol. Then did Galdor who stood there pick it up, but Turgon accepted it not, and bare of head climbed to the topmost pinnacle of that white tower that stood nigh his palace. - The Fall of Gondolin

But in that hour, Finarfin forsook the march, and turned back, being filled with grief, and with bitterness against the House of Fëanor [...] and many of his people went with him, retracing their steps in sorrow [...] But his sons were not with him [...] - The Silmarillion, "Of the Flight of the Noldor"

Revenant for @tolkienrsb 2025 in collaboration with @mossquitoman. Here's part of the original art prompt:

Whether it's the Oath's effect upon the Sons of Fëanor or the Rings' corruption of the Nine, the legendarium is rife with characters who have been twisted or otherwise corrupted by forces beyond their control. Despite this, some traces of what these poor creatures originally were must still be in there somewhere... right? Do they struggle against themselves? Can others around them see what remains? Or are they just forever trapped, screaming into the void?
