Ouch - my heart goes out to Elros here, especially for the abandoned child in the man he has grown into. I found the choice of Elros over Elrond, as the pursuer, very interesting as well, and wonder at the motivation. His independent action here, clearly against his twin's inclination, speaks volumes.
My heart aches too, for a mother who is incapable of discerning the yearning in her child. Makes one wonder, when the Ainur were singing the world into existence, did they preordain all this suffering? Or did the inhabitants of Arda bring it on themselves.
