What a great idea! I love the unusual PoV of the narrator and witness of these events.... Well done, Jillian!

Yes. Yes yes yes yes. Tolkien's world is first & foremost a very grand fantasy story. And fantasy is mostly about happy endings, however tempered by an appropriate amount of tragedy( at least in my book) . I always felt sorry for Tar-Miriel's apparent fate, & this fills in this particular "gray area" of canon very nicely. The descendant of Huan angle is definitely plausible & a good touch as a POV. I like! I like!

I forgot to mention how I liked seeing Maglor. I'm a sucker for the "Whatever happened to Maglor?" mystery, & I'm eager to read fanfic that treats with that topic. I, of course, favor the happy endings. Makes me wonder, though. Did post 1st Age ellith have Maglor Sightings like their mortal counterparts do with Elvis? Lol! Again, a wonderful tale.
