One Good Reason Why

Give me a reason. A reason why this had to happen.

Kili was just a child and Fili too. They were the sun and moon, the dawn's light and the twilight's calm breezes. They had much to live for, many dreams to dream, live, and fulfil. Happy times and sad to learn from and people to love. Their young blood should not have been spilled on my account or any others.

Fili and Kili. Loyal, trusting, brothers, princes, loving sons, and beloved nephews. I can never forgive myself for what happened to those lads, those wonderful, troublesome boys who will never smile again. Who will never wake me with their laughter and good-natured banter again or agitate me with their silly pranks. If I could have them back for one moment, I would use it to tell them just how much I love them, their smiles, and their laughter.

Give me a reason. One good reason why they were taken. Why?
