:: A missive left in Lindon, in an unnamed yet stunningly beautiful shore of the Gulf of Lhûn. ::
" Thus shall the Steps of Neldir, the Thrice-Shattered, daughter of Nelhanar, be retraced, from her last before she sailed West, to her very first taken in the Halls of Nolofinwë.
Shattered Once, for the cold, heartless fangs of Helcaraxë, the Grinding Ice, claimed her son, Neldros and her tears were frozen, never to be shed. Such was the sea of her grief in which she were immersed ever since.
Shattered Twain, for her oath of avenging her brother's demise at the hands of Vallach, fiery servant of the Enemy in the Dagor Bragollach was fulfilled, yet little joy did she find in its demise. For her heart was cold and the fire of combat simply tempered her bitter mettle.
Shattered Thrice, for in the hour of her greatest need, she relied on steel cold and terrible of the forges of Gondolin, yet wielded by the Son of the House of Hador, the axe named Dramborleg. But the Edain-touched metal buckled and shattered in the very Throne room of Morgoth Bauglir, whose Silmaril she pried.
In its wondrous light, little joy did she find.
May Valinor's gentle light and sweet waters warm her heart anew and remove the twisted veil of cold despair her eyes behold on everything she sets them upon.
A Elbereth Gilthoniel. "
