Medium Dawn Felagund of the Fountain

I allowed myself a rare opportunity yesterday to write, despite having other pressing things to do. This story is the result of it, based on two of the theme challenges for B2MeM: archetypes and loss of innocence. Something like this story has actually been in the works in my mind since 2005, when I wrote Return to Me about Finarfin attending the reembodiment of his son Finrod. I wanted them to write two more parts, one from Amarië's point of view and one from Eärwen's. Despite good intentions, those stories never manifested. Well, this is kind of the Amarië chapter, although it's very different from what I initially envisioned over seven years ago.

The summary on B2MeM and the SWG reads: In her youth, Amarië of the Vanyar was an idealistic and gifted poet, a rising star among the Vanyar. Many thousands of years later, having weathered unimaginable loss, Amarië is called to Lórien to witness the awakening of her once-beloved and newly reembodied Finrod. I have rated the story Adult at both places for reason of mature themes and some violence and sexuality. Comments are, as always, very welcome. Thank you to those who have left me such thought-provoking comments already on B2MeM and the SWG.
