Am I the only one who's interested in Eilinel? She's no more than a vision, really, and yet we see so much about her marriage to Gorlim in only a few lines, and his wistfulness and his desperation and his torture are so painful and sad. In fact, I think I'll include him in there too.
They're yet another perfect, if tiny, illustration of the havoc that Sauron wrecks on hearth and home.
