Beautiful [In reply to] Can't Post
Those are all very beautiful. It's been years since I've read through the Athrabeth. Someday when life is less hectic, there are many things from Tolkien I need to read through again. Aldarion and Erendis is another.

The one from Miriel is one of my favorites! That tale is so incredibly rich, and it saddens me that most don't get to read it.
"...not till now have I understood the tale of your people and their fall. As wicked fools I scorned them, but I pity them at last. For if this is indeed, as the Eldar say, the gift of the One to Men, it is bitter to receive." -Arwen
