Gold Like Tears  by Zimraphel 2 Review(s)

I am always impressed by how much detail you can weave into a story in so few words. The destruction of the House of the Golden Flower was tragic, and this tiny golden flower reminds me much of other things created by the exiles - they fall under the curse and even things created for good or for beauty have an ill end. I could just picture Glorfindel seeing this flower again upon his return (if you follow the one Glorfindel path) and how he must desire to just cast it into the sea!

Oh, heartbreaking chapter. I've never seen their parting from quite that point of view before. Interesting that they got to speak briefly with their father; I'd wondered if that might have happened, and what such a reunion would be like. I think you captured it well. I'm looking forward to where you take us next.
