What a fascinating unfolding of history! Very well done. My current story takes place in Annúminas re-built, and it's instructive to remember its bitter (yet valiant) past.

Oh my! This is the story about Firiel that I hoped someone would write--except that sort of sounds as if it wasn't a complete surprise and it is!

:-D Firiel doesn't exactly get a lot of time in print. It was just too good an opportunity to pass on.
