Author: Zdenka (lignota)
Prompt: Drabbletag 5, The Silmarillion: Finduilas/Lúthien - freedom - requested by astris_eldalie
Fandom: The Silmarillion
Pairing: Finduilas/Lúthien
Rating: G
Word count: 100
Summary: Finduilas helps free Lúthien from captivity in Nargothrond.
It is Huan who brings Lúthien’s cloak, but not alone; as the guards fall in enchanted sleep, it is Finduilas’s hands that undo the locks and open doors until Lúthien is free.
As Lúthien flings the shadow cloak around her shoulders, it brushes against Finduilas. Drowsiness overcomes her and her knees give way. Delicate arms catch her; she is floating, wrapped in a soft darkness. She wakes in her own bed, but Celegorm and Curufin are furious, and she knows it was no dream. She knows also she did not dream the brief touch of Lúthien’s lips against her forehead.
