Summary
When I was but a child in the reckoning of men and elves, my father took me with him to the beach to catch lightning bugs for the sea lanterns. I remember a single glowing bug, fluttering all alone in the glass case of a silver lantern much too big for it, and have ever felt a kinship with it.
I am no longer the sailor lighting the way for my boat on a cloudy night. I am the lightning bug trapped inside a lantern, shining alone.
…this is not my Vingilot.
Eärendil takes Vingilot into the Timeless Void on his nightly journey, like always. He is careful, like always, to steer clear of the things he knows lurk in the deep darkness of that endless place. He is not careful enough, and when he returns at dawn he finds himself on a ship from another world that resembles his own only in name.

Summary
In the peaceful days of my youth while my father still ruled, long before chieftaincy of the Dúnedain was to be mine, I was fostered after tradition in the House of Elrond, Lord of the hidden realm of Rivendell.
And until the moment I became of age I was surrounded always by Elves from all walks of life, and I learned from them their cultures and histories, and so their greatest deeds and deepest tragedies.

Summary
While sneaking a few figs from the kitchens to eat in secret before lunch, a young and inquisitive Estel discovers an old journal detailing the eating habits of the many Elves of Imladris, the most notable of which include:
His foster-father, Lord Elrond Peredhel.
His foster-father's stern and overworked councillor, Erestor.
And his foster-father's Captain of the Guard and Erestor's grudging friend, Lord Glorfindel.
