So painful but well done. I have no doubt that Elrond's grief much have been nearly unbearable. But time does heal the extremity of grief if it never erases the longing and sense of loss. That Elrond endured so many losses of loved ones, I have always found heartbreaking. (That's why I insist upon believing that Elladan and Elrohir did eventually sail West.)

Thank you so much! (I somehow hadn't noticed this comment until now, which is why I'm responding so late - sorry!) I'm glad that both aspects work for you. It is indeed very difficult for Elrond to come to terms with Elros' fate, since it's so fundamentally different from his own.
