“I was just a means to an end, wasn’t I? Just a fool for you to trick and manipulate like a brainless twit. It was just a ploy to gain trust when you could barely do so, and I was the only one to fall for the bait. Tell me I’m wrong.”(handxfsilver)

I will not now nor have I ever called you a fool for trusting me. I have more respect for my own disguise than that. I lived that lie for centuries, I know it was perfect. You would had to have powers beyond your ken to suss me out. Even your witch cousin did not suspect me, though she refused my offers. 

Yes. You were a means to an end– but I desired to include you in that end. We could have ruled together, if I had convinced you to abandon the Valar entirely, to help me regain what I’d lost.
A witless pawn would have been useless to me: I wanted an ally. But I needed more time, I needed more power. The war would not be forgotten in the span of a season.  I… rushed the final play. I was concerned that if I waited longer, I would forget my purpose. You had that effect on me. It was powerful. I feared it. 

My fear cost me control of the elven kingdoms and my relationship with you, which I… I valued highly.

Ah, Tyelpe… Remember you the white lilies that grew in Aman? There are none like them in Middle Earth, not now– but someday, when we have built Valinor on earth, they might bloom beneath white towers and bring hope to the exiled. Do you not want to see them again? Do you want to make that future come to pass? With my gifts and your skill, we will build it together.  

Wear this clasp, so our dream will be close to your heart.
