eleven pipers piping, ten lords a-leaping, nine ladies dancing, eight maids a-milking, seven swans a-swimming, six geese a-laying, FIVE GOLDEN RINGS! four calling birds, three french hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree

The day of battle approaches. Finarfin retained his position as High King, Feanor has been released from the Halls to lead the Host of Valinor, Elwing and Eonwe get to lead the bird army this time around, and Ecthelion just showed up to lead his army of battle flutists.

#silm #silmarillion #holiday #12 days of christmas #gil galad is even more confused #hmm should the geese get any official role here?#ecthelion gets to lead the bards and minstrels because maglor and daeron are extremely indisposed #(maglor is lamenting dramatically at finarfin (top left) and daeron is still lost)#also fun fact! the reason i write the FIVE GOLDEN RINGS that way is because i have a stuffed bear that plays 12 days of christmas #except it yells the 'five golden rings' part comically loud #also in case you've joined this series more recently #elwing and eonwe are leading the birds because one of the early polls (day 3?) tied for both of them to get armor
