Summary
“May I join you?”
Celebrimbor nearly fell from his perch. He had not thought anyone followed him, let alone—
Recovering himself, he peered over the edge of the loft floor to confirm the evidence of his ears. And, yes, there among the barley bins stood Orodreth, his face cast into sharp relief by the lamps along the walls and looking sterner than Celebrimbor had ever seen it.

Summary
Maedhros' gaze landed on Elrond, keen and challenging. "We knew the Oath bound us to pursue our friends and our kin, if they held a Silmaril. Why include those words if we believed they would never be relevant?”
Elrond had no answer. But Elros replied, in a dry voice, “Poetic license?”

Summary
“Sauron held up a mirror,” Finrod says. “Clear as Aeluin! I had all my bonds broken for me before I entered his halls. Blood was not bond enough, nor fealty; friendship died in the frost, and oaths-- I am a free elf at last, not countryman, not king, not son, not husband, not brother. No aid to the Beorings, at the last. No true friend to you.” There, in the darkness; the low sound, the wolf’s breath. “Only the last bond is left, that keeps me in my skin…”
“And the manacles stapling you to the wall,” Andreth says, dry, and the walls of Tol-in-Gaurhoth vanish. Finrod is left blinking, hard, against the sudden accession of light.
“Actually,” he says, “only one is attached to the wall.”
