You really do like Finarfin, don't you...
I also liked the decision, very warm and fuzzy.
Excellent description of the despair... and selfishness. The appearence of her mother was clever. Finarfin was even more honorable than usual.

And not to forget the quality: not a word out of place, nor too many or few. The loss she felt was very palpable.

This story has been, to me, the second most gutting of all your Finarfin fics, the first of course being, The Two Messengers, which I still cannot read without sobbing. Sorry, slipped off into a bit of shameless promo there, didn't I? lol

At any rate, this is the saddest of all situations but unfortunately, avoiding those you are most intimate with helps you avoid accepting the reality of horror and you've brought that across perfectly here. Your Finarfin is seminal, I am sure he will be foremost in thought if I ever attempt to write him beyond a mention. Brave, honorable and tragic. Beautiful job, Ellie

Another excellently done story. This is not only a very emotional portrayal of a suffering, mourning mother who is lost in her pain. I find the way you brought Finarfin's feelings (the loss of his children, relatives, friends, and the fact that he had to face the tragedy), particularly moving. I agree with the opinions above, the loss was palpable, and the end - heartwarming.

Great, great story. Thank you for sharing.
