    Summary

    "The sword remembered by history is rarely the sword that falls. The mistake is in thinking history exists to preserve a thing that happened, when in truth it only exists to replace what happened with an account of what happened. The true event retreats before its own record as a stone retreats beneath soft, vivid-green moss, each retelling another layer of growth, each layer another season's omission, until all that stands is the surface that has consumed the stone. The stone is still there, technically, at the core, but the core is no longer the story. The moss is the story. The moss is what you touch when you reach out to feel the stone."
    ___________________________

    In Doriath, Maglor catches a glimpse of two young princes being taken into a forest, only to disappear in the blink of an eye. Years later, as Sirion burns to the ground, he comes across two younger princes engrossed in a game of knucklebones.

    Summary

    “When they played in the caves, they were not Elwing-Elrond-Elros, mother and sons. They were three refugee children pretending to be ordinary children, feral in salt-stained clothes and their foremother's wide, watchful eyes. Up and down the shoreline, caves like these were claimed by Sirion's young to play in, designed, occupied and defended by children who understood that space you could call yours was temporary, that you took it when you found it and could lose it any time.“

    Elwing cares little for the forests of Valinor.
