I have become mistress to the sea, and my son a second class concern to his father. Every day he leaves him with me while he goes to the sea. And now he has a ship! Which I am glad for, let it please him, but by the Valar's grace.

Eärendil has not stopped crying. What am I to do with him when he wants his father but his father is too busy for him! What am I to tell him?

Uncle? If I might get my father to lend me Glamdring or Orcist will you take Eärendil and teach him to fight? He has been asking and I do not know how to wield a sword to any use.

Else I would teach him myself.

	No, dear one, you're not wrong. And he does notice you. But you can't be together all the time. Sometimes he needs to do his thing, and you need to do yours. You can have separate lives, and be individual people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It is hard, mother. I do not want him to be miserable! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Then let him go. He will come back to you, dear. But sometimes even lovers need time apart. I used to spend weekends visiting Maitimo before he was exiled, and your father never minded. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Am I wrong to be upset? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, dear, of course not. But you must also come to accept that lovers fight. It is simply part of being married. And he will not always do what you want him to do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I do not want to fight with him. Valar, I am his wife and he will do as he will do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You two must talk over this, my love. Communication is vitally important in a relationship. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	When he deems it fit to return. (Reply to this) (Parent)
