Quote Prompt
“It was not long before whispered tales began to pass among the Sindar concerning the deeds of the Noldor ere they came to Beleriand.”
Summary Prompt
It is in this chapter that Thingol and Melian learn of the true reason the Noldor came to Beleriand. However, we also see that Galadriel withholds some important information about the events that passed when initially asked, specifically, the kinslaying.
Thematic Prompt
We see another instance of the Valar directly contacting one of the Eldar--specifically, Ulmo coming to speak to Turgon. Sometimes, there are individuals who seem to be in the favor of a higher power (this could be spiritually related, a business arrangement, the ‘teacher’s pet’ idea, etc.). Use this as your inspiration with what you create.

Each day, three prompts will be offered. These are influenced by the story The Silmarillion. The first prompt will be a direct quote from the book, the second will be a micro tidbit from that particular section, and the third will be a more generalized prompt inspired by the happenings, but meant to allow for creations outside of the realm of The Silmarillion.
