Summary: Fingon and swimming in Treelight


Fingon had learned to swim in the pool of fountains in one of the palace gardens in Tirion. He had been very small, one of several palace children learning to kick holding the rim of the pool, then with a float, tethered with a string. That water always clear as crystal, reflecting the Treelight, the distant sky. Older, visiting Formenos, swimming in the lake with his cousins -- playing, diving, daring each other to feats of skill (and stupidity -- good fortune that no-one had cracked their head on a rock or worse.) Clear at the surface, mysterious in the cloudy depths.
