I really enjoyed this. I like all the threads linking various people and events from the tales as well as your fics.

Blessed are the loremasters! Since the recordation of history is one of the central conceits of the whole legendarium, it’s always really interesting to me to see characters undertaking the task in-universe, and this is an especially lovely example for engaging with the Mannish traditions. Yes the elves are amazing and fascinating and have so much rich culture and history, but are the Men not just as interesting? Much of the Beleriand/Middle Earth historical record seems not to think so based on what is prioritized and centered in their narratives, but thanks to this character there will be that much more for future generations to learn from! I loved him!

Loved this!

I found the theme of this fic utterly fascinating! The preservation and transmitting of history, and the difference between Elves who might still remember the Two Trees, for example, and the Edain who pass the knowledge from generation to generation. A enjoyable read.

I like the idea of other loremasters who wrote down a very different kind of story from those we got.

Oh, this was lovely!  This kind of textual work is unendingly fascinating to me, whether it's fictional or non, and it's heartening to think of it helping patch over the gaps left by tragedy.  Also, Pengolodh mention, my beloved! 

this was so much fun to read, and it felt so real in a way! I loved the description of the manuscript collection Tegilbor was copying, and that background sense of grief for the traditions and knowledge and lore that had been lost... If you ever write more featuring Tegilbor, I'd love to read it! <3
