So very very beautiful!! Your descriptions evoke such magical images and I love their connection with each other and their people. Lovely!

A beautiful title for a bittersweet tale! Elwë loses a lot for Melian, but it's no small thing to be loved by a Maia; I love his panicked 'What do we do now?', and her calling him 'My Starlight' - what greater compliment could there be? I enjoyed reading this and will enjoy thinking about it. :)
