The Tale of Melilaurë and Mélaurel by Iavalir

Fanwork Notes

Written for Ardor in August 2012.

Since Elemmírë is never explicitly stated as a male or female, so in this story she is actually both. I got the idea when Tolkien invented the word for hermaphrodite in his notes; I always wondered if there was such an elf in his tales that he never got around to writing about. 

Also, I am going by Tolkien Gateway’s assertion that Gildor may have been a servant to the House of Finrod.
