The Wave Warbled Under by Himring

Fanwork Notes

This is a crossover with the poem The Sea Singer, by Alfred Percival Graves (1913; link to text at the Poetry Foundation website).

For the purposes of the crossover, I decided to interpret the incident described as an event during one of Earendil's voyages to seek Valinor.

No warnings for content of the ficlet itself, but reference is made to canon-typical deaths in First Age Beleriand.

I love female Erellont, that's such a good idea! This has a very melancholy and mythical vibe. I had not read the poem before and this prompted me to go looking... you've created an original and, I think, successful fusion!
