[ There are no good answers, Maglor knows, and he croons to Seel as he breaks, like the cradling arms of the sea, accepting his grief and his helpless fury ]
It will never feel like it is enough. [ Maglor says softly, bleakly
Oh Nelyo, Nelyo, forgive me, it should have been me! It should have been me ]
And it will be so much harder for you than it was for me. Oh Swift! Seel is still too young not to hurt you badly with his grief. But hush you - don't blame yourself. You are too young to be shouldering this burden, but there it is - we cannot chose what the times bring to us, only what we do with them. I will be here, as best I can, but ai, so much of what I have done has gone ill I hesitate to give more than comfort. But you can come to me, to my brothers, to my cousin, to my nephew - to any of us Swift, if you are hurting and in need. We have all of us lived through tragedy and been both the injured and the forgiven. We will never turn you away.
