Ah, what a beautiful obsession.*g* It's a lovely open field for speculation and you've run with it. Is the black claw literal or metaphorical or aren't you saying?

Okay, a drabble for each incarnation of Telperion.*cogitates*

Ah, what a beautiful obsession.

It is! I like trees... they're fun.

I'm not saying, but that's because I don't know *grin*

My very favorite thing about this beautiful drabble is that you had the tree answer. ;)

Thank you! Trees are definitely living things in Tolkien--we might not be able to hear them, but they do talk :)

It's a wonderful obsession if it produces this... *grin* How lovely. And yes, the Tree's answers were a gorgeous closing to this.

Did the sun nourish you? Or did you drink of the snow and the moonlight alone, that you are fairer than silver, than mithril?

Oddly enough, this line made me think of Gaudior the unicorn from Madelaine L'Engle's A Swiftly Tilting Planet, fair as silver who drinks moonlight. But that's just my odd brain, I realize.

Another thing that drinks moonlight! Cool :) I haven't read A Swiftly Tilting Planet, but now it seems I must.

If you haven't read the whole series (starting with A Wrinkle in Time, then Wind in the Door, then Swiftly Tilting Planet), definitely do... I think you'd love it. I have almost all of her YA books, and read them every few years or so. She's such an amazing writer...
