Two Eyes Stare at Mine
Stories > He that Walks Unseen's listing
She looked at me with elven eyes and I was instantly captured by her
splendor. In despair, I tried tofly and found me inevitably trapped by
her stare. Her face, carved as an ode to temptation and captive within
a silver oval, reminded me of a morning in Imladris. Who was she? Why
was she capturing my very soul with her stabbing eyes? These and
many other questions I could not answer. Nonetheless, my spirit grew
instantly wiser as I started to recognize things that were unexpectedly
familiar. Finally, the answer crossed my heart and my mind like a
pale-blue blade used in Gondolin: It was me, Galadriel, discovering my
reflexion for the first time, admiring the very mirror which was to
show me and others so many fair and terrible things.
