Defiance
Submitted by Estarfin on May 13th, 2024
The warriors of Fingolfin and Caranthir were brave, but they quailed in the face of the monster before them. Tall, wreathed in smoke and fire and holding a whip of flame, the Balrog of Morgoth came towards them. The Noldor fell back, save for a single figure who did not give way. Cendamo stood his ground; his armour, dented and scorched, bearing the marks of the terrible battles so far. His eyes, once bright with hope and joy now burned with the fire of defiance.
