Sad But True  by Ecthelion of the fountain 1 Review(s)
RhapsodyReviewed Chapter: 7 on 5/6/2007
This was spot on and often overlooked when people say they so dislike Fëanorians:

…Cowards. You dare to call us cowards. Merely by words Curufin set so great a fear into your hearts that since then you have forsaken open battles and turned to stealth and ambush, wizardry and venomed dart. Who are indeed the cowards? And have you forgotten who fought at the borders and prevented Sauron's werewolves and beasts from crossing Talath Dirnen? Instead of appreciating our efforts to spare your lives, now you want to say we are cowards? If you are so eager to die, may the evil fire of Morgoth fall upon you all!

Well put and I like the way how you play out Huan's betrayal, especially after Celegorm takes him in again when Orodreth uses the hound as a testimony. After all, Huan was influenced by Luthien and did not know his master's thoughts. Greatly explored, but I am in a hurry, off to read the next chapter!
