Summary
“Ugh,” Fingon says when he wakes up. His head feels both tender and thick, and the brilliant golden Tree-light hurts his eyes. He hasn’t felt so bad after a Gathering of the Fruits since the first time his father deemed him old enough to attend. The miruvórë Yavanna makes with her own fair hands from the honey of the undying flowers in her Garden is only offered at the high festivals, and it’s dangerously light, clear, and sparkling. It’s as easy to get swept away by it as it is to find oneself caught in the jaws of an undertow when swimming in the Bay of Eldamar, carried beyond oneself by a sense of wellbeing and mirth as inexorably as being carried out to sea.
“Ugh,” someone agrees, and Fingon rolls over to find Maedhros in his bed, hair a red-brown tangle like seaweed on the pillow and his usually fair face decidedly pallid.

Summary
“Would you have us move too soon?” Maedhros asked. “I forget to whom I speak; of course you would! But I tell you what I told the king: that we have yet to build up our herds, yet to prepare for true siege, yet to come to our full strength; nor to train up the Sindar and Nandor who have sworn to serve us. What we might lose by ill-timed action we cannot replace. No one is coming to help us — neither west from the sea nor east from over the mountains. There is nothing and no one now but us.”

Summary
“Marriage?” asks her father. He doesn’t often show emotion, so the slight flicker of surprise betrayed by his raised brow is something of a prize.

“And you have come to ask me,” Haleth said, still breathless with outrage at the idea, “to travel back into the north and fuck your cousin better?”
