This is so beautiful! I really love this little bit of Beren and Lúthien after their story! My favorite parts are:

"'Your part in the tale of this age is done, my love,' she said. 'Do not forget what happened when you tried to take a second Silmaril from the Iron Crown!' She wrapped her arms around him, and kissed his brow."

"Her eyes shone with the light of the stars, and her voice rang with a power not unlike that of Melian speaking in the court of Menegroth."

and

"...it was something to believe that Rían’s son still walked the earth beneath the moon and the stars, even if they would never meet."
