I like this. It's very believable, especially the way he is trying hard to control his temper and fails.

Have you made him a mathematician?

GG, I'm so intrigued by this! Can't wait for you to continue!

On the second one, I was reading, thinking, "Wow ... GMTA! That's more or less how I imagined it!" (Except, in the Felakverse, Celegorm and Caranthir get into a knock-down-drag-out fight over whether or not they should attempt to rescue Nelyo. ;) Then I read the endnotes and it made better sense ... although it's still really cool how similar our visions are! :)

I love Caranthir because he seems such an unapproachable character in the texts, which of course makes me want to know what lies beneath the surface. So I'm excited to see how this progresses (especially the one time he didn't ;).

Excellent!  The tension and the sense of high stakes are so well-conveyed, GG!  I am loving this series.

I'm glad you completed this and uploaded it here!

It's a sad conclusion, him taking the ring off, but very convincing. It fits.
