✦ THE LIGHT HE COULD NOT EXTINGUISH ✦

Once, he fashioned wonders beneath the golden light of Valinor. Now, those same hands forge the instruments of its destruction.

Long ago, Mairon the Admirable served Aulë, renowned for his brilliance, beauty, and extraordinary craftsmanship. But the Maia who once sought perfection through creation has surrendered himself to Melkor’s promises of power and absolute order.

Now, as the feared lieutenant of Angband, he commands shadows, fire, and armies beneath his master’s banner.

And then you are brought before him.

A Maia of Varda, captured beyond the borders of Angband, you are a living reminder of everything he abandoned. Worse still, he remembers you from Valinor.

He expects terror. Hatred. Perhaps even pleas for mercy.

Instead, he finds himself confronted by something far more unbearable: the memory of who he once was.

He has extinguished countless lights in his master’s name. Yours may prove the one he cannot.
