I really like the idea that Sting was originally forged for Ereinion! I'm a bit puzzled how Erestor and Ereinion got to Gondolin if indeed that it was they did  in this story--that seems a major "detour" even for Erestor! Or is this a different "hidden city"?

Ehh... No. It was Gondolin. And actually this is kind of a spoiler to my story Brother Mine... (The story has not reached that point.) I did mention it in the story notes, didn't I? :uncertain: If I didn't, I'm sorry... Glad you enjoyed reading it despite of that. And on the subject of Sting originally belonging to Ereinion, I was indeed thinking of giving its history a... less illustrious/warrior-like beginning, being only some type of defense for a small child -- however famous he would later be. I toyed with the idea of giving it to Erestor, but then I thought of Ereinion. I'm glad you like that idea. :) Thank you for dropping by and telling me what you think of the story. I highly appreciate it -- despite the late reply... :embarrassed: (Sorry!) Rey
