Three takes on Maedhros seeking Elured and Elurin (dA) hhimring October 19 2014, 16:56:15 UTC
Title: Maedhros searching for the sons of Dior, by Gold-Seven
Type of Fanwork: illustration
Length (if applicable): n/a
Rating: n/a [general=not mature]
Warnings: none
Summary: "They came at unawares in the middle of winter, and fought with Dior in the Thousand Caves; and so befell the second slaying of Elf by Elf. There fell Celegorm by Dior's hand, and there fell Curufin, and dark Caranthir; but Dior was slain also, and Nimloth his wife, and the cruel servants of Celegorm seized his young sons and left them to starve in the forest. Of this Maedhros indeed repented, and sought long for them in the woods of Doriath; but his search was unavailing, and of the fate of Elured and Elurin no tale tells."

Summary: "...but Dior was slain also, and Nimloth his wife, and the cruel servants of Celegorm seized his young sons and left them to starve in the forest.

In the sleepless winter nights, when the sky is full with stars and the cold wind blow the shadows appear from the past.

Glad you liked them!
(I've got a Maedhros collection on deviantArt, so these were the ones I could retrieve most quickly.)

Hope you'll forgive me for being stalkish but I'm following you on DeviantArt - I see you're a Noldo fan such as myself. ;)

You're very welcome! But following me on dA will show you only what I post, not what I fave--and that, I'm afraid, is going to be very boring!

(Definitely a Noldo fan here!)

Don't worry. :) It works more like a bookmark for me, for whenever I need a quick shot of gorgeous FA elves. :)
