That's such an original idea, the way you've paced / plotted this piece. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but that came as a very pleasant surprise (different structures, imaginative approaches really do it for me Wink smiley face ) As for the writing itself, it had a lovely, lyrical quality so fitting for Maglor, but with that darker edge. Inspired, Rhaps, seriously.

This is an amazing story, and very original, from the first line to the last. Once I read that some things were engraved in Maglor's soul, I realized how powerful beginning this line was. Letters can be drawn gently, by a subtle stroke of a quill, or by a sharp draw of a chisel. Maglor's soul bears stigmas that have been drawn in the most cruel way. And I love the idea of inserting these letters into the story. Very poignant and beautiful. Thank you for sharing Smile smiley face

Wow. I'm just reading all your stories, Rhapsy, and I just love this one. It's so different! It raises some interesting questions about the Valar's motivations and gives a lot of insight into how Maglor feels about his fate and his family.
