Oh! Yay! I am so happy you have posted this here! I am going to re-read it, although it may take me a while.

I am noticing the second time around so many details that I rushed through on the first read--galloping to the end. I leave some more comments on the chapters as I go! It is incredibly creative and unique.

I second Oshun! *happy*

Both QN and Return to Aman deserve multiple rereads to garner all the small details, lovely descriptions, vivid characterizations. I'll start rereading them both

Hi!

I really liked the scene with Sauron. There was a bit of mystery about who he was, and why he would "help" (unless he's not actually helping?). I wonder when we will meet him again, and if spirit-Fëanor with fight Morgoth head on at some point!

I think the parts with Fëanor and Sauron talking together are my favorite one. This one is very sinister and seems to imply that, somehow, Fëanor has been working for Morgoth all along and Morgoth is somehow... fond of him?

Really liked the fight between Fëanor and Sauron. It reminds of the song contest between Finrod and Sauron, and the images used were great: kinslaying versus the humiliation of Melkor! I hope for some Fëanor versus Melkor now, and wonder if Fëanor will ultimatly go to Mandos and meet with Fingolfin again.

“Don’t believe a word of it,” he told them. “Either that Daeron was better, or, much more, that Maglor believes it.”

Such a great line!

I'm really enjoying all the magic woven throughout this story. It feels very authentic to me.  I love it when Maglor and Maedhros show their superpowers!

“Thank you,” Elrond said, his eyes bright with laughter. “I’d hate to feel my education lacked something compared with a century or so of the finest teaching in Tirion, despite war, orcs and the Black Enemy of All the World.” 

I really love this chapter it is one of my favorites. I know these comments I am leaving are insufficient. Sometimes I can write long rambling comments and other times I can't, but I just want you to know how much I love details of this story.

Elrond's curiosity and his optimism are young Elrond as I have always imagined him!

Oh I was so happy to see another chapter. What a lovely end. I like the fact that Celebrimbor wears the Star, even though it is hard. And that he staus among the remnants of the Fëanorion loyalists and free thralls.

His conversation with Elrond reveals so much of both of them. I'm glad Elrond is looking, has thought it out and that they both agree some shouting is necessary. Their palpable frustration that they missed signs of what Maedrhos and Maglor would do in the end and that they were deceived rings true. 

Elrond's to speak for them is just right--as we know from your others fics he does accomplish that. And poor Celebrimbor is right--Fëanor's grandson sailing into Alqualondë demanding a Silmaril is asking for trouble. But the advice to seek out Finrod--because he knows everyone and that he of all people would still be willing to help is perfect.

and I loved the twist at the end! That Fëanor wrote and rewrote this history and that it changed in the retelling and is waiting to be found in Elrond's vast library. 

Im glad he kept his promise to Maedhros--that really mattered to Maedhros and I'm relieved Fëanor respected that. 

Had I said before how much I love Feanor's spirit and a very mundane-looking seagull collaborating on getting Maedhros safely to Mandos?

Also, the Oath being washed aways in black strings by the tide...
