    Summary

    Raised voices, a snippet of conversation. Someone there. All in Quenya, but they had begun on their studies long ago, and Elrond had a decent handle on the language by now. Better to know what people didn't want him to know than not, even if it wasn't their language, their real family's language; not a surrender, just an advantage. It wasn't hard to place the words in the right spots to understand what was being said, and neither was it to connect the words - and voices - to faces. There was no shortage of Elves around them, always busy, rushing and paying the children little mind, but few sounded as musical, melodic as their dark-haired lord and even fewer with raspy baritone, hard and low and unyielding. It truly was not hard to tell.

    -

    Elrond overhears something he was not supposed to. He doesn't think he should talk about it, really.

    Summary

    “Elrond,” the Fëanorian said in a gentle voice, “that’s a crab.”

     

    Elrond is convinced he has found Maglor, or at least all that is left of him, in the form of a crab. His friends and family are not so sure.
