I will admit it straight away, while reading this chapter I was so curious how you would use the statement of Tolkien that to none of the Fëanorians, Aredhel's heart was given. Given chapter one, I was more than curious how this would be explored. I really like the way how you applied this by means of a dream. I laughed at their first meeting, it felt so typical Aredhel to me: two strong minds, both loving their freedom so much. But the end, of that was so perfect: the way how Celegorm and Maedhros exchange a glance, Celegorm's thoughts: My brother, don't try to fool me or even yourself. Your so-called friendship only triggered your weak words; in fact you have never tried to change anything. Words or action. In this sense, you are no better than me. I am looking forward to chapter three, this is such an excellent story! | |

I admit, I also found that line "to none was her heart's love given" rather interesting; it implies that one, possibly more of them, expected her heart's love, and no one was unduly shocked by this. But what you've done with her here is great -- very much in character, both the willfulness and the compelling attractiveness. Poor Celegorm, perpetually pwned by all the women he loves. | |
