Because Maeglin deserves to be happy and explore Space rocks. (Not that he does in this fic, but I'm working on it.)
Today's episode of Welcome to the Beleriand System featuresMaeglin: After the VSS Gondolin crashed, he joined his cousin Idril and her husband Tuor on the newly built BSS Eärrámë as they work on finding a way back to the Valinor system. Now he gets to spend time with his two favourite people in the whole world AND study cool rocks! Truly, he's living his best life.
Celebrimbor: He, too, used to live on the Gondolin, but after her end, he was quickly pulled into a variety of different engineering projects rather than joining the crew on the Eärrámë. That is how the Gwaith-i-Mírdain were formed, who quickly established themselves as one of the best engineering teams in Beleriand.
Honorary mentions go to Narvi, without whom none of their projects would ever be delivered, and Naria, whose coding knowledge knows no equal.
One last thing before you get started: Just ignore the timeline. I needed Maeglin and the Gwaith-i-Mírdain to coexist for a reason. Some of the changes have some vague scientific basis, others you'll just have to roll with. It should all be explained on Sunday if nothing goes wrong.
