It comes as no surprise when he mentions others, knowing her striking resemblance to Lúthien. "You may." The corners of her lips turn up ever so slightly. "I am Arwen - daughter of Elrond, Lord of Imladris."

Told you says Maedhros triumphantly Don't rub in it grumbles Curufin.

"Ah." Maglor smiles, fond and wistful. "I thought so. You have your father's eyes. Well met then, although I fear this a poor meeting, in a place like this, and to one such as myself. But for my sins Maglor Feanorion, I am."

[stillhope]

She knew his history - his actions and the lives that were lost. From it though, she was blessed with a loving and wonderful father. She would not have had the capacity to give so much of herself to Aragorn if she hadn't had such a supportive family.

She settles on the ground in front of him, voice soft.

"Please, do not downplay your importance. I owe you much, my lord."

[bythewaves]

He smiles at her, and shakes his head.

"Perhaps. But I was the cause of much grief to your family also. Even so, I am glad to meet you - fair indeed is Elrond and Celebrian's daughter! I only grieve that they would steal such a light to a world such as this one."

[stillhope]

She cannot argue with the pain, though there is power in redemption. She inclines her head slightly at the compliment before speaking again. There's a sadness in her eyes, knowing other's presence here can fluctuate. "So many are here that I care for, including my beloved. It is..." She thinks for a moment, unable to find the right words.

"I have the chance to see my mother again, so not all is lost."

[bythewaves]

Maglor would hardly call it redemption - what are two lives weighted against all those he has killed? But his eyes are gentle and a little fond as he looks at her, who in another world, another time, might have been his granddaughter.

"And who is your beloved then, silmë?"

"Ah" he murmurs softly. "I remember Celebrian saying so - that she had to sail. It is good that you have this chance."

[stillhope]

She does not attempt to mute the smile at the thought of her love, the nickname adding a small sparkle to her eyes.

"Aragorn, son of Arathorn." A man, she adds silently. She does not put to words the weight that is attached to her choice paired with the knowledge of her mother's departure. The glimmer fades slightly, though she would not change her decision if made to choose again a thousand times over.

"Aragorn son of Arathorn" he murmurs softly and tips his head at her curiously. "That is not the name of one of the Eldar, silmë."

She makes Luthien's choice? asks Curufin softly, and Maglor fancies he sounds a little sad.

"You may resemble more than one ancestor, it seems"
