The Lands of Weeping and of War

by bunn

Maglor in Mithlond is fairly sure he's not supposed to get an even slightly happy ending. Elrond and Elros think that they'd be happier if he did. Follows directly from 'Lingering in the Hither Lands' This series is not consistent with my Return to Aman series, but does connect loosely with Quenta Narquelion.

When She Sees Me...

by Fears_and_Things

Many people visit the coffee shop every day. Many different faces passed through in their daily routines. To Luz, their faces never stood out. They were all a blur of people. Until she saw the cotton-candy-haired goddess standing in front of her.

An Intense Dislike of

by Himring

Amlach seems to be the only one of the early Edain who is explicitly said to have entered the service of Maedhros, so he may have been the first of Men to do so and he may have gone to Himring alone. This story imagines the feelings of an Adan who originally opposed the Eldar and now finds himself spending his life among them, all on his own. It also tries to answer the question why he picked Maedhros specifically as his prospective leader and whether Maedhros fulfilled his expectations.

To Wear an Elven Crown

by Grond

Thranduil has never seen one of the Edain before, and he's eager to finally meet the child Beleg found wandering in the forest—yet he's forced to wait. Father says the Adan is unwell, but what does that really mean? Thranduil's certain he would help him feel better, if he could only talk to him...

Atandil

by EilinelsGhost

“I convinced myself the situations were different. I built labyrinths within my reason to justify the pretense, and in their twisting ways I wandered blind till faced with her grief—the tribute paid in pain, as thou hast named it. Till then I could contend that I suffered so thou might be spared; I grieved so that thou might hold love in memory untarnished. That I learned at the feet of Doom to thus keep its step from thine own neck, and so should goodness come of it. Eru forgive me, I was wrong.” ------After his conversation with Andreth forces him to face his own rationalizations and hypocrisies, Finrod realizes he needs to come clean to Aegnor and confesses to him both the consequences of his former advice, as well as his own secret grief that motivated it.

by EilinelsGhost

That it was returned, he did not question. He could look back now and see everything arranged in its full image, he could trace the careful dance they both wound through this past year; every word, every silence, every touch ringing through with that steady truth. How had he been so blind? Springtime has come to Estolad. Finrod is struck with a realization he has been avoiding and faces the decisions that lie in its wake.

Many a Dreadful Path

by EilinelsGhost

“You ask only such? To place the road to torment within thy palms and send thee forth, dear son of dear sons, unto a death of agony, alone and friendless? Only such!” Nóm’s eyes blazed out in the vehemence of his words. “I cannot, Beren. I will not." Beren arrives in Nargothrond and both he and Finrod navigate a swath of memories as they determine the path forward.

Vassal

by EilinelsGhost

“I would give everything to thee, but not as a stray once smiled upon who ever after limps hopefully at thy heels; to be some brittle leaf, wind-tossed and in its delusion of flight thinking it might reach the sun. Nay, there is no choosing for me, Nóm, thou knowest my choice already—writ as plain upon my face as in the thoughts I know thou hast lately scorned. I do not ask thee to make my choice, I ask thee to make thine own.” "But when a year had passed Felagund wished to return to his own country, Bëor begged leave to come with him."

A Shifting Mirage

by EilinelsGhost

“I have felt this role devour me, each year it has claimed; and as I watch you now I see its echo—the years it is kept from you devouring you in the same way. Why should I hold from you, my son, that which destroys me and would prosper you?” Finrod and Balan say farewell to Estolad and begin the long road to Nargothrond.
