#Elrond has a DNI list of names one cannot say around him

[elerondo]

Sometimes, Elrond sits at his desk alone, leaning his chin on crossed arms and says her name for the sake of it. He says her name for the sake of how it sounds on his lips, a name he has said for two thousand years and suddenly, he can’t hear her name anymore. Nobody dares to say her name around him.

And they are right in being afraid of saying her name around him. Nobody has loved her more than he has loved her. Not even Celeborn and Galadriel, he thinks, and he will fight the both of them and the world to prove that.

But he has to admit that Valinor could be a much better place for her, than him.

It is a fact that is so hard to swallow at times, that he has to leave the love of his life in someone else’s hands.
