Aww, that is actually very poignant and heartbreaking.

He was only a second cousin, a friend to those who were closer to the throne, and he was young, just barely over his sixth decade.  He had been caught up in the actions of others and had eagerly joined them in this march away from the cities of his youth and into the unknown lands of the dark.  But now he stood restrained by fear, knowing that to move forward would cause his doom.

That perfectly captures the doubt of a young Elf, who finds himself caught up in overwhelmingly huge events. I love that some-one came to him, then.

And a perfect ending!

 



I don't know if it was charisma as much as love and friendship between them in a time of great uncertainty.  If one leaves a family behind, then one needs to count on friends.  And Turgon was, if nothing else, a boon companion and great friend of Glorfindel's.  Thank you for taking the time to read and review.
