I did like the conversation between father and daughter. "they disapproved", clever daughter. "almost recipe for disaster", wise father.
And the war game was fun. The two women seemed better at strategy, "our fathers' daughters" though the two fathers got killed soon.
The major OFC was well designed, connecting many canonical characters.
Lalaith was also cute. The Balrog slayers deserved some smacks. Smile smiley face)
Only given that Gondolin sent an army ten thousand strong for Unnumbered Tears, I assumed the population was probably over hundred thousand and then a big house might have over ten thousand and "to run a household" was more like to run a kingdom than a housewife's work.
Thank you.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the read Smile smiley face and I think I referred mostly to Ecthelion's own house, I'm unsure whether they would have all lived together or not, I kind of picture that there would be a 'main' house, and then others connected to it, carrying on with the name, but who knows? It's all speculation, but thanks for the comment!

"I will break every bone in your body and leave you like that if you do."
It's so amusing and I couldn't help replacing Ecthelion with E-breaker at reading following chapters. Smile smiley face

The happiest became the unhappiest in one day.
OC is not really Mary Sue for me, better than some with 'Not Mary Sue' statements.
She might be pregnant... for sequel.
