G.Summary:
Elrond reflects on Isildur's choice. 100-word drabble written for the challenge on HWM.Feedback:
yes please.~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Isildurr!"
So you will not destroy the One Ring.
So your loss and mine have been in vain, and the Shadow will rise again.
So the valiant Men and Elves, who lie in the dust, their life-blood
leached away into the filth of Mordor, have died for naught; their
sacrifice buys nothing in this world.
We will go our separate ways and nurse our wounds in private, but I
shall always curse you, son of Elendil, and rue the day I called you
nephew.
You are no kin of mine, traitor, although you be of the flesh of my
brother.
