The Art of Long-Distance
by Kaz
Why did Glorfindel return to Middle-earth? Maybe the Valar decided they needed a messenger. Maybe he felt he still had something to do there and begged them to let him return. Or maybe it went something like this... It's the early Second Age and Idril is worried about her grandsons. In the course of this she waylays new arrivals to Valinor, tries to find her footing with her own grandmother, schemes with Tuor, Finrod and Glorfindel, and finally sets a plan into motion.

Those Holy Antique Hours
by JazTheBard
O! how shall summer's honey breath hold out, Against the wrackful siege of battering days, When rocks impregnable are not so stout, Nor gates of steel so strong but Time decays? - William Shakespeare, Sonnet 65 On the worst day of their lives, as they fight to kill each other atop the walls of Gondolin, Idril, Tuor, and Maeglin find themselves flung into the future and separated. Tuor wakes in a sacred pool, Idril in mountains full of shadows, and Maeglin (still holding Eärendil) right near a stronghold of Men.Faramir would like to know why someone is in the Forbidden Pool right after he got Gollum out of it, Frodo would like to know why this elf-lady is reacting so strongly to them calling upon the Light of Eärendil, and Éowyn would like to know if this elf will lend her his armor so she can sneak out to fight...

The Fate of Kings
by LadyBrooke

Sweet Up-Lockèd Treasure
by JazTheBard
It's time for Maeglin to get reembodied! The only problem, of course, is that a good number of people don't trust him with freedom, so he has to be supervised by someone who isn't biased in his favor. Idril and Tuor volunteer, since no one knew they were dating him before. Once he apologizes for what he did, they can enjoy their time together.Or at least they could, if Maeglin didn't consider their relationship long since broken off, and its rekindling didn't look extremely suspicious to outside eyes.(Title from a Shakespeare sonnet again)

celestial bodies
by stormwarnings
Idril says to Maeglin, "And how fare your stories today?"Maeglin does not break her gaze as so many do. At least, above else, he has the strength that her aunt had. “As they always do, cousin. Dancing across the sky, entombed in rhyme.”(Idril's son has been spending time with her cousin, lately. Perhaps nothing could change, or perhaps everything could.)

For My Sake Do You With Fortune Chide
by JazTheBard
The first of the repentant kinslayers are to be reembodied, according to a letter Idril receives from her scandalized grandmother Térasanyë. When more and more are Returned, including some of her own kin, it becomes strange to think that Maeglin isn't back -- after all, he never committed that particular crime, though not for lack of trying. Upon finding out the cause, Idril and Tuor briefly come out of their retirement to set things right.

Three Queens the Eldar
by Kaz
