I like this a lot--how you've interwoven the birds and the rushes and the music and the unfolding of the love story! 

The piper also reminds me a little of Tinfang--although I imagine there were many Telerin flautists and pipers, on both sides of the Sea.

By the sound of it, this Sinda may not have received an offer to go along, but perhaps she might not have accepted it, even if it had been tendered, despite her love for the bright-eyed Noldo maid. She seems so much at home in the landscape of Nevrast.

Thank you very much for writing a fill for my prompt!

Thank you -- I'm very glad you like it!

I agree with both -- that she wasn't told of the journey to Gondolin, and that she might not have gone because she loves her own country too much. (Though I believe her Noldorin lover was under orders not to tell her and didn't find it easy to leave her behind.)

Thanks for leaving that set of prompts for me! I was glad to have them to work on, though it took me a while to get back to them.

I think I missed this when you posted it, sorry!

What a wrenching encounter!

I feel so much for Aewelir here! But for Maicane, too.

They have both been through so much loss, as well as losing each other.

And I love how you used the different prompts.

What a lovely piece! I so appreciate work that builds out the years in Vinyamar and imagines that city and its people before the withdrawal to Gondolin. This was a treat. And a painful love story, too. Thank you for sharing.
