“…and it was then that Elrond first saw Celebrían, and loved her, though he said nothing of it.”

He was the son of River God Cephisus and nymph Lyriope. He was known for his beauty and he was loved by God Apollo due to his extraordinary physique. Narcissus was once walking by a lake and decided to drink some water; he saw his reflection in the water and was surprised by the beauty he saw; he became entranced by the reflection of himself. He could not obtain the object of his desire though, and he died at the banks of the lake from his sorrow. According to the myth Narcissus is still admiring himself in the Underworld, looking at the waters of the Styx. x

The House of Marach was named after their first leader Marach or more commonly after his descendant Hador Lórindol, the House was the greatest of the Three Houses of the Edain, and most heroes of the First Age were members of it. Most surviving Edain after the War of Wrath were members of this House, and as such they made up most of the people of Númenor. The Men of the House of Hador typically had blonde hair and blue eyes, and were some of the tallest folk in Beleriand.

These are dark times, there is no denying. Our world has perhaps faced no greater threat than it does today.

You said you’d always be there for me! But you’re not and it’s because of me. It’s my fault. It’s my fault. (The Lion King, 1994)

Are we are not part of this world? Tell me, Mellon, when did we let evil become stronger than us?

This story is about the Baudelaires. And they are the sort of people who know that there’s always something. Something to invent, something to read, something to bite, and something to do, to make a sanctuary, no matter how small. And for this reason, I am happy to say, the Baudelaires were very fortunate indeed.
