Tolkien Time Warp-Out of Time
“If none can release us,” said Maedhros, “then indeed the Everlasting Darkness shall be our lot, whether we keep our oath or break it; but less evil shall we do in the breaking.”
Yet Maglor yielded at last to the will of Maedhros, and they submitted. The Elves set sail for Valinor.
On the last march, Maglor said to Maedhros, “ Two Silmarils remain, and one is mine.”
He stole it, and flied, but it burned him so that he knew he no longer had a right to it. He wandered in pain over the earth, and cast himself into a pit.
Ilúvatar, please, it’s all my fault…take me instead, not Maglor.
“You are the High King now. We have already lost two kings; we cannot let you take such a risk.”
“It is the wisest arrangement to let Kanafinwë go, to be on the safe side.”
He has his part in the music.
“What kind of brother and what kind of king would push his own brother toward danger rather than facing it himself?”
No, it shouldn’t be like this. Maybe it was me playing out of time, and he covered up. My mistake has utterly ruined him.
One change is granted to you; yet beware, for Maglor is a mighty singer. Alter the tune, and he will reshape his own to meet yours, binding the music in harmony.
Then Maedhros the tall, the eldest son, persuaded his brothers to feign to treat with Morgoth, and to meet his emissaries at the place appointed.
“If none can release us,” said Maglor, “then indeed the Everlasting Darkness shall be our lot, whether we keep our oath or break it; but less evil shall we do in the breaking.”
Yet he yielded at last to the will of Maedhros, and they took counsel together how they should lay hands on the Silmarils.
Why am I pushing him to do something against his will?
Why does he still stay with me till the end?
Alter the tune, and he will reshape his own to meet yours, binding the music in harmony.
I failed him in the end… again...
Maglor saw Maedhros fall into the fire. “Out of time…once again!” he screamed, collapsing in frustration.
In first version, Maglor went to parlay with Morgoth
Just some thoughts. I don’t know how to write…🤣
