After reading this one, some thing have come to my attention.
Excuse me, I do not like the fact you turned Eonwe, a character who is a heroic figure in the history of this game's lore, and turned him into a submissive, weak, and pitiful homosexual. It completely ruins the character in all aspects. J. R. R. Tolkien, by which your work is based on, is rolling in his grave currently. Many of his works were based on Anglo-Saxon myths, such as Beowulf. However, Tolkien was not a misogynist, many characters he made were of heroine nature. Such examples were, Éowyn of Rohan, Melian the Maia, Luthien, and Lady Galadriel. Since his introduction in Episode 9 of your series, his sole purpose was to be a suitor for Varai. It would be foolish of Manwe to set Eonwe up with his daughter, as their age gap is too far. The comparison would be a teenager falling in love with a thousand year old. In his true introduction in Episode 11, Eonwe claims that he cannot marry Illmare, since she is too tied to her work. I don't see how she could have no time to marry Eonwe if they are practicing combat and sparring. Then, Manwe orders Eonwe to wear emo clothing. I do not know why Manwe, someone who is the definition of purity and good, would order someone to wear dark clothing and look evil. It does not fit his character whatsoever. I do think for Episode 12, he is well written. Eonwe is a strong, content, and reasonable man. The next episode, he somehow brought pizza. I don't know why Eonwe is eating pizza, but writer liberty I suppose. You also have Eonwe deliver pineapple pizzas, which is a creation of Melkor's design. His makeup makes him cry. Now I am not sure why a spirit would wear makeup since they can change forms at will. Regardless, Eonwe would not cry in this circumstance. After seeing a picture of Mairon Annatar, Eonwe becomes infatuated and lovestruck towards him. Firstly, Eonwe and Pythas can both change forms at will, there is no reason for him to be lovestruck at a form that Eonwe should know is evil and will corrupt him. You also make Eonwe say, "Women are bad! Down with women!" This would have him sent out of Manwe's courts with no power. He was loyal to Manwe and Varda for very long. Before, Eonwe was a polite gentlemen, but now you have turned him into a misogynistic radical. It does not matter if the makeup is cursed, would Manwe not know the makeup he gave Eonwe was cursed? Are you aware of the true powers of the Valar? Also, you are claiming that being attracted to men is a curse, that is quite politically incorrect! They also have a cure for Eonwe's curse, are you claiming the attraction to men has to be cured? This is bigoted, it makes me quite mad I say! So after reading all of your Edge of Night Episodes, I firmly say that this is a misogynistic, homophobic work.
That is all.
