Unusual crossover and works quite well.  Poignant ending with Maglor choosing to sing about the Battle of Unnumbered Tears, although I wonder if it would have been encouraging to Richard.   I appreciated reading your commentary and learning of the similarities between Fingon and Richard III's deaths.  Very Interesting.
