Author notes: Written for January's formal challenge. I wanted to try writing lanterne poems, but then I couldn't stop at one! Seven seemed like a good Tolkien-ish number. I put symmetry in the choice of characters/relationships as well: three from the Silm, three from LOTR, and one in the middle that links the two. (Mod, may I have character tags for Finrod and Gilraen?)
