You are singlehandly turning me into a Lomion fan with your beautifully written and insightful character studies. A stellar job of conveying his outsider status.

Wow, I really enjoyed reading this. You have successfully put me into that same group with Sind! I have so enjoyed how you bring Maeglin to life in so many different ways. That must have been so painful for him to witness.

Bravo on another wonderful story!

That last line was a crusher.
Calling out to his mother like a mortally wounded soldier. That one line spoke volumes, the whole story captured in one sentence.

I hope you are very proud of yourself, I would be.

You know I love your Maeglin stories and this is one of my favorites. A very short piece but very insightful and revealing. Like so many other Tolkien characters, most people see Maeglin's misdeeds, but don't take much time to ponder how he fell so low. His misguided love for Idril was his downfall. I'm glad you posted this one here.

This is the first of your stories that I've read, but I shall certainly be pleased to read more. I love your style and ability to convey your characters' emotions through the text. Maeglin was portrayed wonderfully and I reall felt for him. Well done. Very Happy smiley face

That last line was fantastic "his frozen mind called for his mother." Talk about showing characterization rather than telling it! However, I think the opening paragraph was weak: some really long sentences and too many comma-ful clauses kind of chunked up the rhythm, even though you got into a lovely rhythm later in the piece. But my nitpicks are minor; I still want to give Maeglin a hug.
