Summary: A little lack of sleep gets the Silmarils made.


The light of the Trees never entered the deep forge, where he worked, away from all other eyes. Now the closed, hot room bloomed and glowed. Shadows scampered away ’til they were lost. He gazed at the crystals on the dark velvet, head laid on his arms, heart full to bursting, weary beyond sensibility, but utterly contented. Countless days he had not slept, labouring through all hours, the trance and frenzy of creation gripping him. He would go now - kiss Nerdanel, hold his sons, embrace his father - but he’d be happy to sleep through the dimmer light of First Mingling.
