[nobunsonpesach]

I feel extremely normal about Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth

Aegnor and Andreth (concept)

[feydrawings]

'Speak of neither to me!' said Andreth. 'I desire neither. I was young and I looked on his flame, and now I am old and lost. He was young and his flame leaped towards me, but he turned away, and he is young still. Do candles pity moths?' 'Or moths candles, when the wind blows them out?' said Finrod. 'Adaneth, I tell thee, Aikanar the Sharp-flame loved thee. For thy sake now he will never take the hand of any bride of his own kindred, but live alone to the end, remembering the morning in the hills of Dorthonion. " J.R.R.Tolkien, Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth, History of Middle Eart Vol. X, Morgoth's Ring

If his heart ruled, he would have wished to take thee and flee far away, east or south, forsaking his kin, and thine...

One last spoiler and I will post the finished one tomorrow

Finrod loved to listen to the stories Andreth told

[bronzetomatoes]

the "canon isn't real we make our own rules" to "i am begging you people to revisit the source material" pipeline
