Oh wow Binka...I'm simply speechless. It was great until the final chapter then it became incredible! I got chills! Such a heartwrenching moment when he sees Curufin *sobs* amidst all the blood and bodies. So sad Sad smiley face but well written. This might possibly be the best thing you've ever written. You've come so far, so fast my little Polish Binkinator.

I will admit flat out that I am prejudiced when it comes down to this work: gifted as a Christmas gift, this was a great story to receive. I remember reading it for the first time and once I calmed down after bouncing around, I read it again. Just like today. This story is brought full circle in an amazing way: just as the seasons pass, beloved characters has to pass on to make place for a new generation of heroes and heroines. Celegorm learns, develops further as a character, being the central one in this piece. From fresh curiousity one would associate to Spring, the supposed one-sided love of one grows full, but can never be ful filled. The parting of ways and the seemingly sundering of fates in Fall and the allusion of seeing her again, but mirrored in her son, the next generation is greatly written. To bad that both die in Menegroth, but Nimloth will pass on the line.

My favourite line still is:
“You, Princess, beware. The day may come when you regret your stupidity and you come to me on your knees,” he called out proudly. “Know that I will show you and your kin no mercy. For no one can claim what belongs to me!”


Grandly in character, a great gapfiller Binks!

Awww. This is a recent discovery and this is breathtaking! I enjoyed the focus on Celegorm here and despite his brashness and impetousness I managed to feel sorry for his eventual fate, along with his brothers. Very well-written. A piece that's nice to read and nice to receive as a gift.
