This has some impressive writing in it and some of the passages have a truly  eerie quality.

I have a bit of trouble with the premise. We know that the Noldor were not completely untainted by racism, but the people of Ost-in-Edhil, although certainly no angels, seem to have been less racist than others, not even more so, going by what we are told about them. But then you do call it an AU, so fair enough!
