His own sacrifice worked to the good of all in the end, and has brought him face to face with his mortal friend's descendant. A beautiful meeting.

Alas that he could not do what Luthien and Arwen did, choosing to follow their loves.

Love awakening these two to one another is a wonderful thing to see!

Not yet ready to face themselves, they seek themselves in the eyes of others, it seems. And they cannot yet let go of their own angers and hatreds.

Somehow I like this the best in the whole collection so far.

Feanor is indeed the most tragic figure in all of the Silmarillion, I think. Flawed genius!

One by one, Aragorn is remembering bits of his old knowledge and identity. I wonder how long until he comes across a tapestry depicting the restored King of Gondor taking poison to save the life of the woman he loves? And after that, one showing the discovery of his own body...and by whom... And, we still need to find out WHY he had been targeted. I will continue to follow this!

Author Reply: Thank you very much for the review, and sorry for the late reply! The question why is explained in chapter 32 - the poisoners who served Sauron once wanted to revenge on the king who defeated him.

These are not relics to play or tamper with idly. I think he does well to give them a wide and respectful berth.

At least Aragorn now remembers, and is able to help Maedhros begin this phase of his healing.

It is a sad thing that this is true of so many of us--as long as we can keep the foe as "them" it is easier to allow them to die at our hands.

I love the idea of Fangorn and his Fimbrethil together that way, and that Aragorn can almost but not quite remember himself.
