[Lalaith]

Well, here I am, talking to myself...
I have always thought the relationship between Aredhel and Eol rather odd. They have something in common...Eol left Doriath because he disliked the whole Girdle concept, Aredhel chafed under the constrictions of Turgon's hidden city...
And I don't much like the sound of "wholly unwilling" and "nor...that her life was hateful..." damning with faint praise, really...also, she named her son in secret, while Maeglin gave him no name at all until he was 12. So what did daddy call him before that? Did he talk to him at all? That's a cheery household for a little elf-boy to grow up in, to be sure...and then to see his father kill his mother before his eyes, albeit inadvertently. Or perhaps not so inadvertent really...after all, he kept quiet about the dart being poisoned, until it was too late...
