Gondolin week prompts 17, 18, 20, 21, 22, 25

As @gondolinweek comes to an end, I become increasingly desperate to draw as many prompts as possible, so I stuffed a bunch into one picture:

Here you can see Maeglin, Aredhel and her buddy Egalmoth as well as the hill Amon Gwareth and the mountains of Echoriath and Gondolin.

A young Maeglin, when arriving at Gondolin turns around one last time, wondering if this was a good idea. Aredhel checks on him, while Egalmoth is excited to see his freind again.

But Tuor looked upon the walls of stone, and the uplifted towers, upon the glistering pinnacles of the town, and he looked upon the stairs of stone and marble, bordered by slender balustrades and cooled by the leap of threadlike waterfalls seeking the plain from the fountains of Amon Gwareth, and he fared as one in some dream of the Gods, for he deemed not such things were seen by men in the visions of their sleep, so great was his amaze at the glory of Gondolin.
