Why this must be read:
Galadriel's Mirror has always fascinated me. In this story Kielle shows us the dark past of the Lady of Lothlorien reflected in it.
It's a subtle and convincing description of Elven magic.
The Mirror showed many things: some good, some evil, some fair, some terrible. But a mirror is still a mirror, and a reflection still a reflection...even if it reflected distant places and remote times. You cannot see the back of your head in a mirror -- or your own heart.
But if you reached into the Mirror, it reached back into you.
