Chapter 1

Read Chapter 1

Celegorm sets down the bow and quiver he was carrying and dips his hand into the glittering water where the gush of the waterfall has washed a bowl into the rock. Quivering in the sunlight, the spray of falling water flashes colours, fragments of rainbows above lusciously growing ferns. It is summer.

For a moment, he kneels mindless, forgets that he is without home or abode, exiled not once but twice, not only from Valinor for his oath and ill-bought voyage, but also from among his relations for far-rumoured betrayal. His knees sink into the moss.

Then Curufin calls him.
