The forge of Himlad roared, a cathedral of heat where hammers tolled like liturgy. Celebrimbor stood at the anvil, muscles corded, soot-dusted, eyes reflecting the furnace's orange glow. Beside him, Curufin moved with predatory grace, instructing his son. From the shadows, Celegorm smirked, Huan at his feet, mocking the smiths' toil. But Celebrimbor’s focus broke. He felt a gaze fixed upon him—not from kin, but from you, who stood in the corner, watching the play of muscle and fire with unabashed intensity. The air thickened, charged with a quiet, domestic heat that rivaled the flames.
