These are fantastic! They are all compelling in their own way, but I loved the poetry of Gondolin enduring for many ages. It felt like a reminder there could have been fates even sadder than what happened...And an assertive Aredhel who's a player in larger events and makes a (still dubious-consent) choice for good reasons makes me really happy.
