    Summary

    "If I could, I would reach past this land and towards the sea, searching for some old version of my Fingon, who exists outside the bloody tale of the Noldor in Beleriand, who can be mourned in isolation from all our other ghosts and all whom we helped make into ghosts. But my brother Fingon no longer exists in isolation. Dirges in war must be orchestral or silent: there is no in-between. Death was his reward, but not his alone."
    ___________________
    On a rooftop three days after the Nirnaeth, Turgon rehearses a tripartite address he's scheduled to deliver the following day: an eulogy for his brother, an account of their final meeting, and his own coronation speech, in one.
