Story

Imagine the sun suddenly going out, just like that. There was no warning, no earthquake or other natural disaster, just the end of light. At first we could see the stars, then a Darkness came up to us. This Darkness was a thing in itself. It was thick and cloying. It blocked light and sound, and even breath.

"I have heard so many stories about the light of the Two Trees of Valinor, how twice a day the golden and silver light mingled in a single hue at noon and sunset... it happens too with the Sun and Moon but I wonder how pale of a reflection it is to that ancient light. Yet, I would not trade them for any tree in the world. Their pale light is what I have always known, and cherish."

The eve of the day before we set out for Imladris, I rode down to the shore. We would be far from the sea for some time. It was just something I had to do. I took with me a short-sword I had been gifted in the First Age. Little need was their for Sarphir, travelling through this part of Ered Luin. 

I stood as the gulls circled before taking rest, as the quality of light changed, as anor sank low. And I thought on what lay ahead. 

I was certain of my path.

Come, Come to the Rushing Sea

Poetry

Come, come to the rushing sea,

Travel the whale's riding,

To Elvenhome return with me,

Calls the sea-gull singing.

 

Can I so lightly leave songs of the falls?

Where merry the laughter of fair Elven voices,

singing  in  fire-halls?

 

Can I  yet leave while tree-herders roam?

And Dwarf-halls still ring while the beat of the forge,

Echos in trembling stones?

 

Come come, says the ship on the strand,

Why tarry ye yet in darkening lands?

"Na-chaered palan-díriel", “to lands remote I have looked afar”. How long has she wanted to gaze in the Palantir of Elostirion and see if her loved one was living a new life, or waited still in Mandos... but it was just wishful thinking and a wish it shall remain.
