I think they should be be capitalilzed here. And no because there is
actaully a ' at the beginning, too. Don't know why it isn't showing up

Technically, we should delete the reference to the cycle. This is the only
story of it nominated. And I'm changing the romance partners to Finrod/f as
I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) Amarie is an origianl character.

Someone with better memory of the Silm corrected me that Amarie is a Tolkien
character. I've added her back to the Romance Partners.
