My absolute favorite concept in this story is the idea of making lighthouses. " When Earwen proposed the concept of lighthouses, and Nerdanel designed and built their structure, Anaire turned her attention to the lamps that would be needed."

I enjoyed how hopeful and warm this was!

My favorite line was Anairë's, saying they needed more light, not less. And Earwen's drabble was really good as well, I laughed a tiny bit at her thoughts on the Pélori.
