CHAPTER 24: CONTINUED

Chapter 24 continued( Chapter 24 continued )

Author's Notes:

This was a long and complicated chapter, but I chose it to submit because I think it sums up a lot of what has gone on before, for those who do not wish to read the whole story, and because it is the first "live" appearance of Feanor, although he and Mandos have had conversations in earlier chapters, in order to set up his eventual "appearance".

I was worried that perhaps there was not enough of Feanor himself in this chapter, though. For instance, I do not have him responding at all to Galadriel, which, in light of his previous obsession with her (which is dealt with in more detail in my other story about him: SSP). I don't know if I should do something with that.

I am also not sure if his character shows enough of the insanity that is beginning to rise up in him. It does increase more in the next chapter that deals with him primarily (Ch. 27), and then ultimately in Ch. 30: Soul Sacrifice, which contains the climax of the story. Taken out of context this way, it is difficult to put into perspective.

I am sorry that the chapter is so long, but I selected this one because it does bring together a lot of the other "sub-plots".
