And She Forgave His Betraying Word
There Dairon grieving often stood
in sorrow for the captive of the wood,
and melodies made upon his flute
leaning against a grey tree-root.
Lúthien would from her windows stare
and see him far under piping there,
and she forgave his betraying word
for the music and the grief she heard,
and only Dairon would she let
across her threshold foot to set.Lay of Leithian, lines 1398-1407
As Lúthien prepares to make her escape from Hírilorn, Daeron visits her for the last time.

Trans Tolkien Blog Recommendations
By popular request, I am putting together a list of anyone who:
- isany gender (trans or cis)
- makes or reblogs trans tolkien content
- is a safe blogger for trans fans
- makes a good-faith effort to keep transphobes off their blogs
To join, the sole requirement is that you do not allow transphobes. Take a quick look at new followers, block transphobes when you encounter them, listen to trans folks when we say something is transphobic. This is non-negotiable: trans tolkien fans are the audience for this list, and transphobe-free spaces are the priority.
Note: this list is under a readmore so it should always open to the most updated version.
