Chapter 1

My soap opera prompts were: 

Stock characters: The Rebel

Plot tropes: Catfight

Typical settings: A mansion in the country

I also had "Special episodes: Snow days," but I didn't use it for this fic. Maybe I'll add another chapter or a sequel that takes place in Formenos! 

Thank you to Bunn for beta-reading! :)

Well told! It is an interesting suggestion that Maitimo was planning to demand the banishment of Melkor at that meeting, and it gives gives an interesting angle that they are approaching just after Feanaro has already disrupted the meeting.
Nice contrast between the peaceful scenes in the park and the threat of violence in the street.
I also liked how you hinted at that feast of reuniting, although it won't be until much later than they think.
