Original Note -
This was an attempt by me to work out a situation in which Celegorm and Curufin end up in Nargothrond by entirely well-intentioned means, and to explain just how they fell from paticularly brutal anti-heroes to completely irredeemable villians.
I want to ramble a lot but do not have the energy, having spent the last 4 days editting this monster of a oneshot. I have still given up before being entirely satisfied, so please forgive mistakes.
