Very beautiful. I love the subtle touch of humor and the foreshadowing of what was to come. Moving and greatly done!

Like I said in the garden, I love this. Its beautiful and sad - wonderfully written and thought inspiring. Someone needs to write her story, she needs a voice. *nudge*

Loverly, Viv. I particularly like that even Finwe only suggests, he does not mandate the name - which is of course completely canon, but nice to be reminded of. This was touching but also bittersweet.

I really liked that you showed Miriel as a tough broad with thoughts of her own rather than some shrinking violet destined to disappear - it makes her later sacrifice and deterioration all the more shocking.

This short piece of writing is like looking through a small window into a very intimate moment between Finwe and Miriel. It is so sweet at first glance, yet the knowledge the reader possesses soon turns it into bittersweet and poignant.
