Summary
The sun shone brightly over the fields, casting a warm, golden light over the grass as it swayed gently in the breeze.
The day had arrived—Galadriel’s first horse riding lesson. She had been waiting for this moment for what felt like ages, ever since she had seen her older brothers galloping on their steeds, their hair flying behind them like banners. It had stirred something fierce and adventurous within her, something wild that made her tiny heart race every time she saw them ride.
Now, it was her turn.

Summary
“_ Finrod…”; Her voice cracked as she called his name, her big, tear-filled eyes searching for him. She was trying so hard to be brave, but she couldn’t stop the little sob that escaped her. “ I... I think... there’s a monster in my room.”
Her brothers looked up at the sound of her voice, and for a brief moment, they all exchanged amused glances, the kind that always came before teasing. But then they saw the way she was trembling, the way her small hands clutched the blanket, her cheeks flushed with fear and her lips trembling.
Finrod was the first to move, his teasing smile softening into something gentle as he beckoned her over.
“_ Come here, little star…”; He murmured, using the nickname he had given her when she was born. His arms opened, and that was all it took...

Summary
" Years had passed, and Rivendell was as beautiful and serene as ever. The golden rays of the afternoon sun cascaded down over the valley, casting a warm glow on the surroundings. Elrond, now taller and more composed than the shy boy he once was, found himself pacing outside the hall where Galadriel’s brothers gathered. His heart was pounding, and though he had led countless councils and fought in numerous battles, the idea of facing her four older brothers to ask for their permission filled him with a nervous energy he couldn’t shake.
He loved her. Gods he loves her.
Deeply.
Truly.
To the very marrow of his bones.
Galadriel had been his guiding star through the years, decades, centuries, a radiant light that made every hardship worth it. He had grown beside her, laughed with her, weathered storms both literal and emotional. And now... he wanted to marry her, to bind his life to hers in every way possible.
But first, he needed to face her brothers..."

Summary
Finrod was leaning back in his chair, a soft smile playing on his lips as he recounted a particularly amusing tale from one of his many adventures. Orodreth, his hand lazily poking at the fire with an iron poker, chimed in with witty remarks, earning playful jabs from Aegnor, who, as usual, was full of sharp quips. Angrod, always the quieter of the brothers, sat with a contented expression, nodding along to their banter.
But amidst the glow of familial comfort, Galadriel sensed something… off.
Her gaze drifted across the room, past the smiling faces of her brothers, and landed on the figure seated slightly apart from them—Elrond. The half-elf, so often a quiet observer, was sitting in a low chair by the window, his small frame barely visible in the shadows. He seemed transfixed by the flames, his posture stiff, eyes locked on the dancing embers as if trying to draw strength from their warmth. His dark hair, usually neatly combed, was tousled from restless movements, and his hands were clenched tightly in his lap. His brow was furrowed, and though his expression was blank, the slight tremble of his shoulders betrayed the fear creeping up on him...

Summary
The forge glowed with a gentle, fiery light as Elrond stood in Celebrimbor’s workshop, his hands steady but his heart pounding. The heat of the flames licked at the air, casting warm shadows over the workbench where a small, unfinished gold ring lay. His mind raced with thoughts of Galadriel—her laugh, her strength, her kindness—and the weight of what he was crafting felt heavier with each passing moment.
He wiped the sweat from his brow, fingers trembling as he carefully shaped the band, his thoughts entirely focused on the woman he loved. Every detail of the ring had been carefully considered—the gold, as bright and pure as her spirit, and small stones he had chosen for the ring...
