I was mad at both of them after reading the story.
Aldarion, fool that thou art! The love of a beautiful maiden you had, and cast it away! You cut into the very heart and beauty of Numenor, for the sake of your pride and your love for the sea! You despised the heart of a woman for the cold and threatening love of the sea.
Erendis, little pity can I spare you, neglected though you were! You poisoned the heart of your child, and you scorned all men for the sake of one whose heart recklessly followed the longing of the sea. Well did you know his heart ere you plighted your troth to him. Can you hate him for being what you knew him to be?
Ye are dysfunctional jerks, both of ye!
