Dream of the Black Sword by Flora-lass

Comfort Food

Written during an SWG instadrabbling session in January 2025, for the prompt 'comfort food'. This is Gwindor's POV as Beleg gives him lembas.

Gwindor hardly knew what was happening at first. After all the horror of the past - he could not remember how long - here was an Elf who reminded him of Finrod, giving him food which he somehow knew was safe to eat. And such food! After just one bite, if was as if something inside him came to life, like a tiny candle flame whose light made all the difference in deep darkness. And as he continued to eat, he felt warmth spread through his whole body, and hope return. He knew who he was again, and where he wished to be.
