Finwe will appear in this. Right now, he's visiting some of the towns in the northern part of the land. In my Felak!verse, the people to the north were the ones who remained loyal to the House of Feanaro, so Finwe does not completely reject them (as he does the people in Tirion, who are mostly loyal to Nolofinwe and Arafinwe) when Feanaro is sent into exile. He will return shortly in this story and ends up playing a pretty big role near the end, which is all that I can say without giving the story away. ;)
I chose to have him away for this early part of the story simply because I was afraid that too many overwhelming presences would confuse the story--and poor Erestor! Better to introduce Feanaro and his sons first, then let Finwe come in.
You're keen to have noticed this, though (the only person to say anything to me so far about it)! Please feel free to de-lurk more often. ;)
