Lovely. And I love Celebrimbor's last thought. And Sam's recognition of himself in her smile. Nerdanel's story is such a sad one - and she deserved better, I think.

Thanks!
That particular double drabble was written as a birthday present, and the challenge was for the birthday girl's favorite character to meet up with the writer's favorite character. I was lucky that Sam ended up in Valinor! ;)

These are also marvellously done. Nerdanel is one of those characters who pops up in the Silmarillion and seemingly doesn't do much - and yet, that makes her rather intriguing. What sort of woman would have married Feanor, after all?
And beautifully written.

Thank you. Nerdanel was the character that intrigued me the most in the Silm, for exactly that reason: what sort of woman would (have been brave and crazy enough) to marry Feanor?
