    Summary

    Lately she has been wondering if Nenya was the only thing keeping her warm all those years.
    Her bones ache and creak. There is nothing but an empty rattle to her lungs. Her heart may as well have left her.

    And his presence alone has her ring burning with life upon her finger once more. She feels rage and confusion and grief like fire in her stomach. Her words bubble up her throat, spiteful and sharp as flames. It warms her through and though she resents it, she can feel the beginnings of purpose twitching to life in her veins. Because she does not know where she wishes to go. What she wishes to see.
    But she knows what he must.

    Galadriel does not sail into the west. She cannot bring herself to. Alone, she encounters a lost man piecing together his own fractured identity and wishes to make the both of them hurt.

    Summary

    The first time she dreams of him after the fall of Eregion, Galadriel tries to destroy the ring which sits upon her slender finger. She swears she can feel it still. The blood and ash. The heat from that unholy fire which had engulfed the courtyard at the centre of the once glorious city.

    Sauron follows her through her dreams, and pulls the flames with him.

    Summary

    It had been 1,284 years since the second kinslaying, shortly before which he had walked away from his father for the last time. 1,284 years to the night, if Celebrimbor were counting. As he was not, he told himself, it was somewhere around thirteen hundred years. A long time to be so alone.

    The city of Eregion mourns those lost in the second kinslaying. Celebrimbor mourns his father. Annatar smiles.

    Summary

    It is as if the world around him is more muffled. There is not as much input as there should be. Just the dull, droning tones of these foolish people hidden away in their caves and nothing else but the unintelligible sound of birdsong.

    With his gifts from Orome slipping away upon his arrival in Nargothrond, Celegorm feels as the city begins to suffocate him.

    Summary

    When she is young, Galadriel dreams of a wolf. Years after, it still haunts her sleep - an ill omen of things to come.
