The glaciers below them shift, crack, yawn, and gullets of dark water open suddenly to swallow the unwary. They sink, swiftly invisible, into the sea. Elenwë is not one of them - she makes the leap to safety and into Írissë’s arms when she steps through the ice to her ankle, and is caught, safely - and then she’s let go with reluctance and regret, fingers stretching until they can reach no longer. For though Írissë loves her, the response is pity, and a kiss to her forehead, and sometimes she wishes that Elenwë had plunged, keeping her longing futile but hopeful.
