Keeping Watch by Lferion
Fanwork Notes
There are several inspirations for this piece:
--the Silmarilion Writer's Guild November-December challenge 'Understory', for which I chose Bunn's Books Should Have Good Endings, specifically Chapter 3 where Fingon is talking about the journey up Araman and then having to prepare for the actual crossing of the Ice. Bunn has a blanket permission statement on her AO3 profile page.
--Having attended the first War of the Phoenix and Pennsic 50 (SCA)
--The idea of watching, the Watch, vigilance, witness, outside-looking-in.
Many thanks to Runa for the sanity-check, especially on the Watch aspect.
Posted to AO3 here.
