    Summary

    He knew as soon as he woke that there had been a frost. The throbbing in his ankle made it clear before he opened his eyes. It didn’t matter that his house was warm – it was to do with the pressure, the change in the air that had woken him early and was going to give him hell for the rest of the day.

    He never could bring himself to regret the leg, even on days like this. Without a shattered leg, he’d never have seen Baelfire. He’d never have been a father at all. It had always been worth it.

    But he still had to face the day.

    Summary

    She listens to him pull in a breath, his voice taking on the sharp edge of alarm. “Lieutenant?”

    Warmth runs over the back of her hand. Down her forearm.

    “Lieutenant, is everything alright?” She can hear the downward turn of his mouth, the ridge that forms as his dark brows draw together. She knows the way his spine pulls straight, his hand gripping the phone receiver with knuckles blanched.

    Shadows are beginning to fray the edges of her vision. A terrible weakness is sinking into her, heavy and bone-deep. She needs to hold pressure. She needs to sit down. “Colonel,” she says again, weariness and panic threading through the syllables.

    Something drips from the bend of her elbow.

    Summary

    On the final evening before Gwindor and his company departed Nargothrond for the great battle in the north, he sought Finduilas out in her favourite garden, where she had brought her loom and was sitting in the twilight.

    Very handsome he was, tall and proud and black-haired: a fine lord of the Noldor, and a courageous warrior, and a gentle, attentive lover. What maiden would not be proud to be on his arm?

    -

    Finduilas and Gwindor's last meeting before the Nirnaeth.

    Sometimes, Caranthir thinks it's better not to know things. This is probably why none of his letters to his brothers ever get sent.

    There’s nothing much about me to like.
    Loid would beg to differ. There was, in fact, a great deal about her to like, and he could easily back this with proof, based on conversations with a certain sibling and his personal observations. (And everyone knew his observational skills were second to none, though perhaps not his ability to process feelings.)
