The choices of Elrond and Elros (and later Elrond's children) is one of those heart-aching topics that I can never resist reading about. This piece is a lovely and poignant addition to the genre. "Imagine me happy"--I had one of those heart-squeezy moments here! And then again for Elrond's doubt. And the dying candle is such a sad but perfect image given the subject matter.

Thank you, Dawn! I'm glad the conclusion of the letter and Elrond's reaction work for you!

Although I've written about Elros and Elros's choice before from a different angle, this prompt was a little outside my comfort zone. I was hoping that wasn't making itself felt too much.
