Maglor prays to Nienna for the first time in years
Maglor did not believe the Valar would ever hear him. Not after all he had done. Even so, as he braids Elros' hair, he cannot help murmuring a prayer and weaving a slim grey ribbon into his black locks - a request for Nienna's protection and blessing upon him. It was not his fault he was being raised by Kinslayers. Perhaps, though the Valar would never have mercy upon his own family, they would pity these two boys - descendants of their own kin, abandoned by their mother, raised in their father's absence. He could not stand it if they did not.
Chapter End Notes
Note: the comment on Elwing does not represent my thoughts on her; it is simply meant as a representation on how Maglor might have seen her at this time in his life.
