Fanwork Notes

I love writing about these women, and I still have Miriel and Bethuriel to do. This is turning out so feminist, I didn't even mean for it to be so much like this, but re-reading Aldarion and Erendis, Númenor is sexist af with its laws and stuff, like Tolkien, comrade, buddy, pal, why; so here you go, all women are queens, down with the patriarchy.

First of all, I burst out laughing at your story notes, so good job there. :D

I like your Ancalimë - she's not nice, but at the same time she is to those she thinks deserves it, and she cares about the women of her country at least (which is a turn from most of our own history!). And the description of her portrait is lovely. :D
