Notes: This started as a quickly written letter, and turned into a major project, including two trips out for supplies, including 'blood of Sindarin and Noldorin Elves'.

The story behind it: the letter was from Finrod to Galadriel, but left behind in Doriath somewhere, to be burned and bloodied in the sack of Doriath.

The time on this was taken up by actually figuring out the tengwar, folding and sealing the letter, then breaking the seal, carrying it around for the weekend to crinkle it, then burning the letter and 'bleeding' on it (calligraphy ink).

I wanted the letter to tell two stories -- that original story that Felagund tells his sister, and the later story of the deaths of her cousins in Doriath.

Pictures are not the best, but I'll try to get better ones later.
