    Summary

    "Mairon remained alone in the temple, kneeling before the altar with his head bowed to the blood-slicked stone floor, with the air still hung heavy with the stench of iron and smoke. He stayed there until morning, motionless and silent, as if he, too, had turned to stone, being no different from the cold walls surrounding him. When the other priests or temple servants dared to enter, they always found him in the same place, his tall form remained unnervingly still, golden hair cascading over his shoulders in stark contrast to his black robes.

    Rumors spread quickly through the city, and all were amazen when, the very next day, Mairon appeared at the king’s councils. Or when he remained in the temple, not to sleep or rest through the daylight hours, but to receive any visitor who came seeking his guidance. Surely, such tireless devotion to his god and his duties could only be taken as proof of his sincerity and his holiness.

    And in this, at least, he had never lied."

    Summary

    “So eager, my lord,” he teased as Melkor placed a trail of hot kisses down the side of his throat. The beautiful breathlessness in his voice raised goosebumps on the nape of Melkor’s neck. “Did you miss me so?”

    ***

    Mairon and Melkor reunite after time spent apart.

    Summary

    "My lord," he said solemnly, "you are full of evil."

    "Is that how you see me?"

    Melkor rested his chin on his palm in feigned interest.

    "Or perhaps it is how you prefer me? At least, my lieutenant, it seems to me that the taste of evil makes you rather ravenous."

     

    Mairon returns from battle and knows how to pull Melkor's strings - as well as his own. Melkor is happy to play along and together they make it a problem for everyone.
