You know I loved this the first time I read it, and I fell for it all over again, and now I'm sitting here with goosebumps down my arms, and it is your fault. Which is not at all a bad thing.

The description is as glorious as would befit the first sunrise, and I love the way you let the reader glimpse at all the characters, the backstories and implications their behaviour contains. Marvellously done, you. 

This is one of the most beautiful desriptions I've read of a Silmarillion landscape, plus all the characters described up in so few words. Marvelous work. Congratulations.

Lovely.  You captured Fingon's amazement perfectly.  (And wouldn't the first sunrise be an amazing - and unforgettable - thing to see?)

Your words make it easy for me to imagine what the first sunrise could have looked like.  Very vivid imagery.
