I returned but a few weeks before the attack, and you had already left on your command to Barad Eithel. I had thought we had all the time in the world.” I sighed deeply, recalling those times. “But you and Forodhir did not return that winter. Instead we had the flames of Angband.”

Estarfin looked slightly troubled. “Everything that could have been was washed away, everything changed. Everyone changed.”

(from 'The Reckoning" by Danel )

“The mood of the company was grim, but hope remained that King Dior would see sense; that when the sons of Feanor arrived at Menegroth the doors would be open, with the Silmaril awaiting them.” (‘Memories of Doriath’ by Estarfin)

‘Your letter, this reminiscing,’ Estarfin said as bluntly as ever. ‘ I have not always been as I am, you know that. I am not blind to what you... want? Or perhaps what you once wanted, before everything was broken. …I am here, now. You are here. Tell me what you want of me. And know that I have so little to give.’

Author: 
The writings of Estarfin and Carnifinde (Danel) of Thargelion in the Third Age. Also of their mutual friend, Parnard.

There is no literal return to the place of Awakening in the East, that much is almost certain. But Danel has another idea, and motivation through her love for a Kinslayer. Creating their own 'Cuivienen' is still a possibility, if they can overcome their respective pasts.

Carnifinde in her Youth.

In her youth, Carnifinde was thought to hold a likeness to Nerdanel. This granted her more access to the court of Prince Caranthir than many were afforded.

I remember!

It was winter. My father and I had stood on the balcony of our house, cloaks wrapped about us, intending to watch the stars for a short time. But it was a moonless and nigh starless night, as if another, darker, cloak was thrown across the sky. He put an arm on my shoulder.

I stood before the ruins of the House of the Mirdan for much of the day. I had not stood there since, oh, since a few years before its destruction.

Story

A gust of wind.
Whispers in the grass.
The breath of Ard-Galen.
Whispers in the grass.
If the meadows stop breathing,
Valariandë will fall, they say.
A gust of wind.
Whispers in the grass.
I can hear it…
The breath of Ard-Galen.
