elena_tiriel wanted Elves, Rohirrim or Faramir showing compassion, and Dark creatures being Dark, with obscure canon thrown in....

My muse got visual as well as verbal. :-D

Shadow and Flame

Can you post it in regular text, Tanaqui? I'm afraid these old eyes are having trouble reading the last paragraph!

Thanks!

Shadow and flame

I was made of fire, always. Why should I not be? Fire gives light, warmth; fire transmutes, tempers, consumes. How can the world be, without fire?

And how can a bright flame not love what it is not: the dark?

He saw my love and twisted it. I fell. Shadow in the flame. No longer the fire incorruptible that renews, but hungry without measure, devouring all.

Vanquished, I must face my true Maker.

The Music is revealed to me again. Fire transmutes, tempers. I fell so others – those Children of Illuvatar I once despised! – might rise and burn the brighter.
