Table of Contents

While it was stated somewhere that Amrod and Amras called each other by their mother-name, which was for the both of them "Ambarussa", I have taken the liberty to disregard that rule here as it would in the end be quite confusing. Quenyan names that will be used to refer to the twins by their close family will hence be:

- Pityafinwë, "Pityo" – Amrod
- Telufinwë, "Telvo" – Amras

For reference, here are the used names of the characters. Generally they use Quenyan within family and Sindarin as titles.

Fëanáro – Fëanor
Nolofinwë – Fingolfin
Arafinwë – Finarfin

Maitimo – Maedhros
Macalaurë – Maglor
Tyelkormo – Celegorm
Carnistir, "Moryo" (short for Morifinwë, his father-name) – Caranthir
Curufinwë – Curufinwë

Findekáno – Fingon
Findaráto – Finrod Felagund
Artaresto – Orodreth
Angaráto – Angrod
Aikanáro – Aegnor

 I really enjoyed this story! The twins are perfect (*not* Weasley twins at all) in their desire not to be seen as the little ones that have to be protected. The characterization of all the brothers is spot-on even if only mentioned in passing: Curufin's and Celebrimbor's opinion about Dorthonion comes to mind :) and Maglor's concern in his letter.

 

Thank you! I'm glad you like my take on the twins. I think one of the reasons I wanted to write this was to show how even they to face the grief of the First Age just as much as anybody else and can't be treated as kids. :) And since I love the Fëanoreans, it's good to hear you liked their characterisation!
