Summary:

Short whatnots and nonsense about Círdan, spanning from Cuiviénen to Forever.

1 – Rhyme of the Finwion: Thingol muddles the Noldor lords’ disturbingly similar names. Diplomatic ruin? Not with Círdan to the rescue!

2 – Nowë’s Ark: It’s the War of Wrath. And Yavanna has a wee little job for Círdan…

3 – Lavender’s Blue: Círdan chats with the blue-eyed, perfumed ex-lieutenant of Morgoth.

4 - Hunting by Number: Finrod and Círdan learn where they fall on Morgoth’s hit-list.

5 - Waiting: Nowë makes four promises to his brother. 500 words fixed length.

6 - Vertigo: Finrod and Círdan visit Barad Nimras, where it is learned that neither is without his phobias.

7 - The Way the Tide Flows: Círdan tells two visitors a tale about the Second Age and the choice that determined everything after.

That’s how the idea came about; there must have been a list for Beren to get on top of!

Hehe… I’ve been wondering if Quenya was too bold. But independent-minded – definitely! I imagine Círdan was far less ready to condemn the Exiles than Thingol. Not all Quenya speakers were kin-slayers!  Thank you, Himring!

Good to see your Cirdan again! Fish seems an appropriate nickname for him to have.

Now, which promise did he keep? I'm guessing it was the part about "looking after them" (except for it being a bit difficult to look after Olwe from where he was), rather than the "marrying", although he may not literally have done the latter.
