Indy, I just loved this.  Of course, all of the Feanorians are near and dear to my heart, but Maglor was always something special, even in that family of overachievers.  I love that you have Elrond return to Ennore to retrieve him.  It reminded me of how much I adored Rise Again from Ashes.

Very nicely done. Glad you decided to share it. It really rounds out the story.

Oh, I like this very much! I really like the feeling of the world shrinking around Maglor. 

As a fan of "Ashes," I am delighted to see the "Embers" prequels here, as I wasn't aware that you had them on your LJ. They make a terrific introduction to that, and are a great read in themselves. (I especially like Elrond finding Maglor in the music store, probably realizing that sheet music too will soon be disappearing into the digital maw very shortly, and trying to convince him to sail before it happens!)

I read this right away when you posted it, but in a printout rather than online. I've just remembered that I never got around to commenting.

I was glad to get these glimpses of the background to RAFA. Like others, I especially enjoyed that meeting with Elrond!

Commenting here because commenting on your comment to my review of "A Dream..." isn't possible, and because for some reason I haven't reviewed this lovely piece yet, anyway.

Yes, the re-encounter is treated here, but it's such a tantalisingly short glimpse - I would have loved more, even though the brevity maybe makes this even more sweet. I love, love, love that Elrond immediately calls Maglor "Father", even after all these years.

On the whole, there are so many tantalisingly brief looks at all the events in history that Maglor has witnessed. I loved his excursus to the east, as well as his stop-over in Gondor long after Aragorn has become a legend, and... everything, really. (Aren't I eloquent. :P) The format works really well, and although most of the short little windows into Maglor's long, long journey make me gnash my teeth and want more, I cannot honestly say that there's anything actually missing. Argh, I'm still not really coherent. No wonder I didn't post a review earlier.

At any rate, I really enjoyed this, and figured I might as well tell you!
