| Cousins. Fingon showed great courage there. I wonder if Maedhros thought his rescue was a kindness - or not ... Huan sees the love between the brothers - and I'm not at all sure Mandos's fate didn't need defiance. It seems cruel to condemn all those who were bound to follow their lords. The sons of Feanor no less than their bondselves. And I think it delivered several lessons for Idril to learn. Independent thinking isn't such a bad thing. Taking responsibility for your own decisions and not indulging in blind obedience. (Fingon seems to be his niece's hero. And fair enough.) Author Reply: wonder if Maedhros thought his rescue was a kindness - or not .../i> Yes. At times it must hve seemed a cruel joke to him... Again Huan is one of the, still defiant of the powers, and hoping that a Vala ( one or all) could be defied and defeated. They still hoped then, I bet... | |

| OK. Let me see if I've got the F elves sorted out. It's Maedhros and Fingon(?). Anyway the cousin who loved him and freed him by cutting his hand off. So I wonder what this all meant to Idril in the future when Gondolin was collapsing around her. Author Reply: OK, you do have a way, :-) !!! I...somehow have the feeling that I'm making you suffer unnecesarily daw! :-) So let's see: a) Yes, Findekano is Fingon, and Russandol is Maedhros, so yes, 10 points! b)Idril had a bad feeling concerning Maeglin and the future of the city, and, without telling her father, she did what she "thought that had to be done", and had a secret passage delved, that helped so many people escape the Fall of Gondolin. Always at your service ;-) | |
