    "Perhaps they've had another baby," said Lalwen. "How many are they up to now, five?"

    "They cannot possibly have had another baby," said Findis. "Can they?"

    Summary

    There were many empty rooms in Rivendell. But there were many guests, too, Elves who had arrived in order to cross the sea in the same great convoy as Elrond himself. They were waiting for the last to arrive, and then they would depart, streaming across the wilds and plains of Eriador, over the Ered Luin, down into Lindon. With them would go history, wisdom, learning and memory: beauty and song. And it would not come back.

    Among this throng, Maglor passed, perhaps, as a wild Elf, who had come in from the wilderness to make that journey with them.

    -

    At the end of the Third Age, Maglor finds his way to Rivendell, and must decide whether or not to sail West with Elrond.

    Summary

    “Atar,” Maitimo says, "by today’s Mingling, it will have been seven days since you last left your workshop. We are beginning to worry.”

    Fëanáro doesn't seem to hear. “Ah!” he exclaims abruptly. “Curvo, find the polishing compounds!” He squints. “Ah, wait—Nelyo, is that you? Nelyo, have you seen the polishing compounds?”

    Fëanor begins working on the Silmarils. Unfortunately, this happens to overlap with Nerdanel and Maglor also falling into spells of all-consuming artistic obsession—leaving Maedhros to handle the House of Fëanor alone.

    Summary

    Fëanor said, “Why do you think the Elf who made Ilimbë loved her?”

    Nerdanel did not castigate him for the absurdity of the question. “Because she was beautiful, I suppose,” she said; “and all the Eldar love beautiful things.”

    “But better to make a beautiful thing than to be one,” said Fëanor; “you cannot convince me otherwise.”

    “Nor do I wish to try!” said Nerdanel. “But why do you think Ilimbë loved her maker, then?”

    Fëanor had never thought of that question before. “Because,” he said, more hesitantly than was his wont, “well — how could she not? She was made for loving him.”

    -

    Fëanor, newly apprenticed in Mahtan’s halls, does not care that Nerdanel does not like him. Her statues are nice enough, but he has far more important things to concern himself with than her approval. And he doesn't think she’s pretty.

    A story about art, mythology, and learning what exactly you were made for.
