    Summary

    "Tell me you want me to stay, Cel," Elrond said, more forcefully. "Command it, and it will be done."

    "I can't," Celebrían said. Her voice was flat.

    "You can. You won't," he said. The part of him that was not yet furious could see how the words would slice into her, tried to stop them. The accusation tore itself out of his mouth.

    "I can't, Elrond."

    Summary

    Finarfin escorts Elrond to rest for a while in Elros's company, and encounters rather more family members than anticipated.

    --

    “No one should need to beg to be healed,” Elrond said, confirming Finarfin’s belief in his goodness and likewise in his Finwëan brand of madness.

    “You have done everything you can to see that they will be.”

    “And how many will die tonight while you ask me to rest? How many will die because we did not save enough honey, or because too few healers agreed to sail east, or because too many healers were forced to take up weapons in Doriath or Gondolin?” He closed his eyes a moment, though with his arm in Finarfin’s, he did not stop walking. “Forgive me, your majesty. I am overtired.”

    Summary

    Summary

    Elrond can almost hear Elros's voice, as if time had not passed and his brother was standing shoulder-to-shoulder with him. He imagines he can see another set of hands braced against the banister and the shifting of fabric as blue as the open sea. With his eyes closed he feels a presence at his back, as if he could just reach out and touch him.

    A steady weight settles on his shoulder.

    "Elros?"
    ---------
    As Elrond struggles to figure out who he is without Elros, he gets one last chance to say goodbye
