After the destruction of the old universe, Vanimórë, sitting outside ‘Time’ in the ‘Monument’, believes himself a failure for creating new universes that are too much like the old. His mind is a desert, the hurt of Eru’s revelation driving him into isolation. 

Eventually, he decides to look into one of these universes, where the Valar’s hand lies heavy on the Elves and in particular a youth growing toward maturity.

A story of Fëanor, and Fingolfin, the secrets woven into Valinor, the cold calculation and lies of the Valar, the forbidden passion that nevertheless grew between the half-brothers, and their determination to break the chains that were wrapped about them — with a little help from an unknown ally. 

They were Fireflower and Starfire, their lives linked over countless universes, drawn together by a bond that neither death nor Power could break.

Chronologically takes place after Magnificat of the Damned Book IV and is part of that ‘verse. (And other ‘verses)
