I Can Walk This Path by Linaewen
Rated G
[Reviews - 0]
Table of Contents
Crossing the cold waters of the River Celebrant by means of a slender rope bridge is not something lightly done, particularly for one who weighs more than a Hobbit or an Elf. Based on a touch of movieverse and the passage from the "Lothlorien" chapter of FOTR (with some quoting from the original), but from a slightly different point of view. A submission for HASA's "Alternative Perspectives" challenge.

Summary: The muse gave me a second batch of words for the theme, although this might not seem like it fits at first glance. Glorfindel, a Maia, a beach at night, and rain. (Note: This is also set in a variation of Fiondil's Valar Ficverse, in which he is so kind as to let me play. Thanks for letting me borrow the Book!)
