That was simply, exquisitely beautiful. There are no other words to describe it, I can only bow low to lyrical genius.

Ah, this is beautiful. (I have often wondered what relationship those kindreds have - this doesn't answer any questions, but it's lyrical and lovely.) One question, though - why does Fianvarr call Maglor "mortal"? Isn't it clear that he is not? Or is Maglor "mortal" in some way that the Tuatha aren't?

I love your opening paragraphs and description. Very atmospheric and imaginative (as is the whole story in fact). The Tuatha de Danaan are a bit of a pet subject for me, and Nuada of the Silver Hand in particular, so it was great to find a story combining that mythology with that of Middle Earth. I did have a sneaky theory once that the TdD could have been elves in fact Very Happy smiley face Except in the science fiction story I have on FF.Net where I said they were aliens, that is Laughing smiley face
Altogether a great little story Very Happy smiley face Very Happy smiley face

Reading this reminded me why i am so intimidated by the idea of writing first age fics Haleth. I don't know if I could ever paint such an atmosphere with words. What a stunning portrayal of the grief and the depth of the fall of the Noldor. Utterly heartbreaking. I am quite partial to the metaphorical use of music in Tolkien fic and you used it vividly and beautifully. Wonderful job.
