Fanwork Notes

I've always felt this fic should ideally be read aloud. So many of my language choices were made for their aural qualities. But I've put off making a podfic of this, wanting it to be 'perfect' - now I have accepted that it doesn't need to be perfect.

Since this was recorded and edited entirely on my phone, there are a handful of glitches, but I have done my best to make for a smooth listening experience. Pronunciations of elvish names are based on how I remember learning them over a decade ago, so please excuse any errors.

The recording does not include the author's notes or footnotes. To read the complete text, including notes, see the text version.
