Title : Unforgotten
Author : Himring
Fandom : Silmarillion, History of Middle-earth
Rating : Teens
Characters : Anaire (Fingolfin's wife)
Disclaimer : Anaire is Tolkien's, but we know little about her.
Spoilers : None.
Summary: Anaire, who refused to accompany her husband and children when they left for Middle-earth, has not forgotten them.

Anaire does not speak of the absence of those she cherished, never defends their actions or contradicts those who curse their names. Some may think she agrees or no longer cares. Earwen knows better. Even she has been discouraged from visiting Anaire at home, but she has been there and has caught glimpses: a white dress of  Aredhel’s hanging behind the door, freshly laundered, Fingon’s second-best bow, recently oiled, Fingolfin’s desk, polished to a shine, with a new jotter, Turgon’s intricate architectural models, carefully dusted.

Level-headed, practical Anaire, the mainstay of Tirion’s infrastructure, keeps her family’s rooms like a shrine.

A/N: Written for one of the SWG's Instadrabbling sessions for the prompts: Cherished, absence, cursed, speaking.

This is great! I love all these small homely details that bring them in alive in ways I've never thought of.
