Maedhros was in the upper study with Maglor discussing what they could do to protect their twin brothers. It had come to both of their attention that their other brothers abused the twins. The twins were also treated like freaks and given a hard time by others elves not of their family. They thought that the twins were playthings or slaves because they were oddities. No other twins had ever been born before and that unfortunately that made them stand out.

"Father suspects that the twins may share your taste in lovers. He disapproves and will punish them for their taste," Maglor told his older brother and protector. To him, Maedhros could solve any problem since he finally had forced their father to recognize Maglo'rs musical talent and arraigned for proper training. Before that their father had considered Maglor weak and useless, now he was the family songbird and much praised since he was considered one of the best minstrels in Aman.

"This is going to be a problem, you know that father has very strict views when it comes to relationships. He only tolerates me because I am grandfather's favorite and he will not gainsay him. Ever since he started listening to that Vala Meklor he has changed, become secretive and distrustful. I don't trust that Vala he will only cause trouble. I am glad that grandfather arraigned your marriage and that you are set there or I would be worried for you also," Maedhros said.

"Yes, but can we do about the twins? From what I have been able to learn in Lorien, they share a fëa between them and are actually one. They will never separate and to bond to another will likely kill them as it tears their fëa apart," Maglor said as he strummed on his harp to cover their conversation from any prying ears that might be listening. "Father will never understand this and eventually he will separate them. Already he talks of sending them to separate places to apprentice."

"Aye this will hurt the…. What is that? Who is screaming?" he asked as he paused to listen.

"That's Amras," Maglor said standing.

"No Maglor, the screams will attract fathers attention and he is still upset over your marriage. It is better is you remain out of site. I will go and find out what is going on," Maedhroes said pushing Maglor back.

The scene he came in on after following the screams to the twin's room and opening the door confirmed his worst fears. Caranthir had Amras tied to the bed face down and was pounding away in him, raping him. Amras was screaming in pain as blood poured out of his ass from the tearing. Pulling the older brother off of the twin, he backed him into a corner and started to beat on him. Soon Caranthir was screaming for him to stop and the noise finally drew their father's attention.

"Maedhros, cease beating your brother at once. Caranthir, stop making that infernal racket. Explain your selves," Fëanor shouted at them from the open door.

"I heard Amras's screams for help and broke into the room to find Caranthir raping him," Maedhros explained to his father in anger.

"Caranthir had my permission," Fëanor sneered at his firstborn. "Amras will not follow you and your wicked taste for men. I was having him taught a lesson. Now leave here and do not interfere again."

Maedhros stared at his father in disbelief before he finally left the room. As he left, he heard his father telling Caranthir to gag Amras until he was finished, as he wanted no further interruptions. He knew that his father disapproved of his relationships but had never dreamed that he would do something like this to any of his own sons. Was his father changed that much since he had begun listening to Melkor? He would have to find ways to protect the twins and Maglor from father's favorite three if this was so. While he could look after himself, they were too different and weak to stand up for themselves. What could he do? As Maedhros walked away he heard his baby brother begin to scream again and cringed. He had waited to address the problem and been too late, now all he could do was try to repair the damage.
