Nice theory! I gather that it is not exactly head canon for you, though, as you've since written an alternative version of Glorfindel's transport to Middle-Earth.

I like Thorondor's take on things and Glorfindel's politeness and good humour.

I have a feeling that I probably ought to know who Nim/Nam is, but am mentally blocked.

Eh, head canon... it's s tricky beast. I find I can hold conflicting interpretations in my mind. Especially when (as here) the practical details differ, but characterization is more or less the same. (Although I do have all sorts of varied Gil-Galads on the brain.) But yes, I suppose the other version is meant to be the "real" one.

And thank you so much for reviewing!

And it WAS Finrod, who also went by "Nom" ("wisdom"). Why the Eagle chose that name, I have no idea.
