This doesn't shy away from any of the harshness of this episode in the Silm-  very well written with a real sense of character and place. I like the closeness of Maglor and Maedhros, mirrored by that of the twins. One of the great things about this as well is how careful you are to have everyone missing information- because that makes it very credible. And of course Celebrimbor would be friendly with Gil-Galad and Cirdan- and htat would influence things. (There is very little written about this 'outlaw' period of Maedhors and Maglor's lives - I do hope you continue)
