Summary
A story of rebirth and recovery in Valinor, set during the late Third Age.
After Ages spent in the Halls of Mandos, Maeglin is returned to life in the Gardens of Lórien, where he realizes that he is not quite as alone as he thinks he is.

Summary
Some thought that the curse that came with the gift of foresight was seeing horrors ahead, or feeling powerless to stop the currents of events already set in motion. No, it was nothing quite so simple as that. It was always the waiting.

Summary
Over the bridge, a golden figure strode up to meet them. Maeglin could only assume it was Finrod, given the shining hair and luxurious clothing. No one but the King of a realm would wear a robe quite so dazzling, the edges of its wide sleeves studded with tiny fragments of diamond and crystal, and its hem trailing a few steps after him. A golden diadem rested on his brow.
They met within view of the palace’s main doors, which lay just across the bridge, and Finrod extended his arms in jubilant welcome.
“Dearest cousins, I am glad you have reached Nargothrond safely!” he said, smiling at each of them in turn. His bright blue eyes widened in curiosity when they met Maeglin’s.
“Ah, you must be Irissë’s son, Maeglin Lómion!” he said. “It is a pleasure to meet you.”

Summary
It was said that when Lúthien’s father saw her mother standing in a glade in Nan Elmoth, his life changed forever—he took her hand and time stood still for them. Later, Lúthien would wonder whether the same might be said of what happened now, as she stepped into a clearing overgrown with ferns and her eyes fell upon the huntress.
