Table of Contents
Ambush and abduction...
Maedhros and Fingon deal with the aftermath of the attack.
Alphangil is confronted with her captor, Cýronil.
Maedhros and Fingon begin the pursuit, and Maedhros draws on his experiences in Angband to learn an important piece of information.
Fair warning: This chapter contains some grisly imagery. If any of the following bothers you, please take due care reading: Torture of captives, mutilation (eye horror in particular) and forced cannibalism. I'm not sure whether it qualifies as "Dead Dove", but the dove is at the very least in the ER.
Rescue?
Once again, a warning for dark themes - notably, torture of a prisoner, mostly physical but with psychological undercurrents. Obsessive behaviour, one brief hint at (intended, not actual) sexual violence.
Alphangil has been rescued, but after being wounded with an enemy weapon, is she safe?
Through the night on into morning...
No promise, nor oath...?
This chapter contains a brief instance of not-very-graphic sexual content, beginning when Maedhros and Fingon kiss against the stable wall. It is entirely skippable if you're not comfortable reading it. That scene is over when the host begins riding.
The final chapter...
I can't believe we're here. Thank you all for having been along for the ride, for your enthusiasm, insight and kindness, for the hits, the kudos and comments, the help and the troubleshooting. ♥
