Fanwork Notes

The title is from Sappho.

Many, many thanks to the wonderful erlkoenig for the speedy and wonderful beta! My thanks also goes to Elleth, who put up with questions about Sindarin and Quenya on multiple occasions, and was very helpful and patient.All remaining mistakes are, of course, mine.

Warnings for off-screen character death, references to non-graphic violence, and mentions of torture. Also, with regard to certain events (the Kinslaying and Grey-elves in particular), Aredhel is very much an unreliable narrator.

Oh, this is a very imaginative switch on the original storyline. Great interpretation of Aredhel. Also, writing Elenwë is essentially like writing original fiction and you do a great job with her--make her an interesting character in her own right, a strong, appealing personality, and not just a name in a list of names. So, this could be a novel. Or a series of stories.
