his argument and appeal

He picks the name because it sounds good and because he can hardly use the one he's been called for the first few decades of his life. (And if he likes the legacy inherent in it, in the idea of having a line of ancestors he can know and be proud of, it's not something he thinks on overmuch.)

Feanor watches his brother challenge Morgoth.

Maeglin finally gets to meet his grandmother

Il y a un homme, assis sous les colonnades du musée. Il est là depuis qu'Eowyn est enfant, immuable comme une statue de marbre, au milieu de ces gens qui vivent leur présent à cent à l'heure. Il les regarde, ces gens, il les écoute. Surtout ces trois jeunes filles assises sur le même banc, qui parlent du passé et de l'avenir. - {Contes et légendes du Septième Âge}

The warnings of foresight ought to be neither lightly heeded, nor lightly thrown aside.

The royal niece, Maeglin, hides a big secret from Turgon. (Alternative background story of the Warg Rider Saga)

Sequel to Postliminium, Aqua Regia, and Donatio Mortis Causa. Celebrimbor has two options. But why should he be bound by a dichotomy where he hates both choices? If the only other course of action he can come up with is certifiably insane...well, at least he can claim it runs in the family.
