Stigmas by Robinka

Agarwaen

But Gwindor sat in dark thought; and on a time he spoke to Finduilas, saying: “(...) A doom indeed lies on him, as seeing eyes may well read in him, but a dark doom. Enter not into it! And if you will, your love shall betray you to bitterness and death. (...) His right name is Túrin son of Húrin.”

Whispers like ghosts kept creeping in the dark when Gwindor's passion turned into dubious envy. His dreams passed away like clouds after the rain and he buried his affection in a shallow grave of unnecessary warnings. How eager a listener you were, my fair Finduilas, so easily putting faith into everything he said.

Can he tell you where the truth lies?

I wish he had spared you his bitter words, spoken in a flush of folly. Yet I know that every breath adds to his suffering since he has realized he will never be a tear drop on your face.
