Unremembered, Unforgotten by JazTheBard

Summary
Maeglin is a young lady residing in the household of her aunt Elenwë and uncle Turgon, who act as her guardians in the wake of some terrible incident that caused her to forget everything she knows. Her mother Aredhel visits her regularly, the Maia Olórin tends to her recovery, and she meets her other kinfolk at the palace in Tirion.
It would be a pleasant life, however she chafes at the restriction that she must stay in the house and only go out veiled and chaperoned, if it were not for the growing suspicion that those she loves are hiding something from her.
Alternate summary: No one has seen Maeglin, not even in Mandos, since Gondolin fell, and all have been bereft of answers about his betrayal. When she returns, unexpectedly both as a woman and without her memories, her family is torn between protecting her from those who might want revenge and containing her if she truly harbors evil in her heart.

Summary
When at last the work was done, she wound it with a key of silver for hours and set it to play. As the dancing girls spun – the one with ink-dark eyes that burned with power, the one with silver slippers and tresses of gold, the one with stars embroidered on the veil that covered her white hair – she wept freely. Then Nerdanel took the key from her neck, and wound it again. Her fingers trembled, in hope and terror. As she reached the end, she met resistance, and, thumb pushing up and index finger pulling down, she twisted once more, a half turn.
And the world around her broke apart.
--
Nerdanel sacrifices what she must to see her family happy.

Summary
Like Curufinwë, like Carnistir, she wore anger as a mask, under which Nerdanel could see a savage wound, still dripping fresh blood.
“They took my son,” Elwing said. “They as good as killed him, that day they chose to leave Sauron free. Just as they killed Celebrimbor, and Elros’s children, they killed Elrond too. And, having already hurt him so much, so many times, now they choose to keep him from life. For what? Because some king who knew no war thought he needed divine intervention to tell him whether or not he could fuck?”
-
In which Elwing discovers her son is interdicted under the Statute of Finwë and Míriel, and seeks both vengeance and assistance with the tool most immediately to hand.
