Long evenings of song and dance under the stars were delightful. They gave the monarchs a chance to spend precious time with Luthien, or relax with their courtiers. Factions were laid aside: politics had no place among such beauty.
Melian savoured the intricate, delicate pieces played in autumn. She would cup her chin in one hand, a faraway look in her usually clear grey eyes. The king loved seeing his wife enraptured: it was a fine minstrel indeed who could move Melian to wonder. As he watched her, he often imagined how he must have looked at their first meeting.
(1) Comment by Elleth for Rapture
Beautiful! Doriath is quite underwritten, and from what I've read gapfillers like this one are quite rare. Lovely language, too... I wonder, is it Daeron who is playing for them?
