"And it is told of Maglor that he could not endure the pain with which the Silmaril tormented him; and he cast it at last into the Sea, and thereafter he wandered ever upon the shores, singing in pain and regret beside the waves. For Maglor was mighty among the singers of old, named only after Daeron of Doriath; but he came never back among the people of the Elves."

(The Silmarillion, chapter 24, Of the Voyage of Eärendil and the War of Wrath, by J. R. R. Tolkien)

The fate of the last surviving son of Fëanor. If you can call such an existence survival.

Sort of a companion piece to this one.
So each of them meets their end - one a quick, fiery, dramatic death, one a long, cold, sad suffering.

Liquid watercolours (Rohrer & Klingner and Docmartins) on Canson Montval paper.

Fun fact: Among others, this one has been added to the collections "Random girls", "Women", and "Foxes".
Hint: If descriptions aren't your thing, at least check for boobs. :giggle:

I had a long time stealing other people's arts for roleplay forums and all, in order to get beautiful avatars and good stuff for free but then I signed on this website myself and began to drawand all. I'll never be as good as you or other skilled enough people that get their art stolen xD

You are really currently reblogged on Tumblr, as your draws are easy to "AHMAGGAAAAD THAT'S GOLD-SEVEN'S !!" I know it's you xD (but they are mainly tagged ^^)
