Okay, for those who are reading it right now, did you notice the similarity between the story of Fingon finding Maedhros and the part in LotR when Sam finds Frodo? The one held captive, the other one a friend who seeks him, stops and sings, which leads to the other one being found and rescued? (Also thought it was interesting how Maedhros loses his hand, just like Frodo loses a finger).

On a lighter note, the line"...their cavalry rode upon that plain...for from few their horses had increased swiftly, and the grass of Ard-galen was rich and green." Which caused which?
