Fanwork Notes

Written for Enismirdal

There are mentions in the HoMe of how a beleif existed that Elured and Elurin were succored by the wild birds and led to safety. I thought that would make a nice fairy tale kind of story...

A very colorful rendering of a fairy tale in "Middle-Earth" style.  I've personally suspected that Tolkien had a plan somehow for Dior's twins--but maybe the concept just slipped through the cracks.   I've also wondered why Melian didn't intervene for the sake of her great grandkids--and this piece answers that for me.
