Nice work. Might be the only fic I have read with Anaire as the main character. Very sympathetic character. Ending was palpable. Captured the sadness. Wonderful roll in the Silmarillion

What a beautiful portrayal of a much overlooked character. Anaire's loneliness and grief reach out from the page! Your writing is very atmospheric..particularly..
"Now, the rain is the heart-wrenching weeping of the countless tears I have shed for the loss of my husband and children and little granddaughter. The fountains are the powerful memories of my husband’s incredible strength, his passionate devoted love, and desperate struggles to rise up to the unattainable favor of Finwë – always to diminish and fall back in failure again and again. The waves of the sea are the pounding of swords on bow and bone and the laments for those so cruelly bereft of life."
