A/N:

Sindarin - "hall" is really "veiled"; that was as close to "invisible" as I got; "na-erui" is Neo-Sindarin according to Hiswelókë; "mabo" means "to take (carry away)" in Neo-Sindarin according to David Salo; "ú-nad" meaning "not a thing" is a construction of my very own.

Tanka - This tanka refers to Gil-galad's death on the plains of Dagorlad, where he was (probably) reduced to ashes by Sauron's fire. But it may also refer to any houseless feä lost in Arda. It was inspired by "Sonnet in the Dark" by The Flash Girls.

Anything at all: if you noticed a typo, if you don't like a characterization or description or if there was anything you particularly enjoyed ...

I am really interested in knowing what my readers think about what I write.
