    Summary

    Nimloth retired early to her chamber as she did most nights, and like most nights she stayed awake late. When the quiet room lit by warm yellow candlelight became unbearable, she stepped onto the balcony and breathed the sea air in deep until her lungs burned. Sometimes the water roared so loud her thoughts were drowned, but tonight it had no such mercy. The gulls cried, and on the shore, a woman sang.

    Lúthien, Nimloth thought, and then, Elwing.
