Saying Farewell

~~~

On the eve of Finarfin's departure for Middle-earth to fight in the War of Wrath.

~~~

His armour was packed, ready to be taken to the ship: He and Eärwen had decided together, in long, tense discussions, that he should lead his host to Middle-earth personally.

Finarfin turned to his wife and drew her in for a last, wordless embrace.

At length she whispered, her voice threatening to break, “Bring them back to me, please! Bring our children home!”

He had to blink a few times. “Eärwen, you know I cannot promise...” He stopped, shook his head helplessly. “I will try to find them.”

He dropped a kiss on her brow. Her lips.

Then he left.
