Summary
It is as if Melkor can see backwards through time, tracking each subtle change in Mairon, each circumstance and twist of fate that have moulded them into the people standing here today, sharing this moment.
Mairon is not the same person who knelt before his throne all those years ago and vowed to serve him. Melkor is not the same person who accepted that vow.
Melkor and Mairon have built a new life for themselves in Arda Healed. It is a life of peace, a life where they can be together without any wars to fight or empires to rule. But peace does not always equal happiness, and as the months wear on, Melkor comes to understand that some of Mairon’s wounds need more than just time to heal.

Summary
I feel Mairon tense the moment the words soar upon my tongue. I think his bruises, sprains and scars, so carefully withheld beneath his armor, coil.
My own injuries are throbbing as the mountain’s heart pulsates.
On the tip of my tongue I finger two different syllables, then. I taste them, long and probing. They are unfamiliar between my lips.
Instead, I murmur, “Come.”
Then try, taste, whisper.
“Please.”
