Summary
Explore the profound choices and significant consequences faced by Arwen, Legolas, and other elves in Middle-earth after the War of the Ring. Choosing to stay in Middle-earth for Aragorn's sake, Arwen gave up her immortality, much to her father Elrond's sorrow, though he eventually reconciled with her decision. Legolas, torn by a longing for the sea foretold by Galadriel, decides to stay and support Aragorn, while Círdan offers him a future passage to the West. Elrohir visits Arwen to provide comfort regarding Aragorn's mortality, while Celeborn chooses to leave Lothlórien as its vibrancy fades without Galadriel. The narrative reveals themes of choice, sacrifice, and the camaraderie among the elves as they confront their gradual departure from Middle-earth.

Summary
He had lived twice and carried the weight of both lives quietly; duty etched into every breath, honor stitched into every heartbeat. She was the healer who moved through Imladris like a soft wind, ink-stained fingers, books pressed to her chest, wandering into sunlight as though she belonged to it.
He hid behind discipline; she hid behind wonder. He lived in restraint; she lived in stories. He avoided her eyes; she never knew she was the reason he looked at all.
Before prophecies stirred the valley, before whispers of fate brushed against their names, there was only the ancient warrior who worshipped from a distance and the gentle scholar who never realized she was being worshipped.
He told himself she deserved someone untouched by war.
He told himself the years between them mattered.
He told himself he could resist the warmth she carried so effortlessly.But even the brightest light falters. Even legends bend. Even a reborn heart can be undone by the quiet grace of a single, healing soul.
Some loves are sparked by destiny, and some by the soft, dangerous truth of longing denied too long.

Summary
Every great love story says that love is fate, inevitable. The Laws and Customs of the Eldar say that love is singular, that there is only one other person out there for you.
Finduilas and Gwindor did not believe that.
After thousands of years from Faelivrin’s death, they would meet again after being changed by the wear of time.
From the first moment let out to the subsequent party after Faelivrin’s reimbodiment, they had a chance to try again.
Not as Gwindor of Nargothrond and Finduilas, but as Gwindor and Faelivrin/Gil-Galad.
Love was still not fated or singular; It was a choice.- Language:

Summary
As the shadow of Sauron lengthens at the twilight of the Second Age, the Elven realms forge alliances in the oldest way: through marriage. Círdan the Shipwright pledges his children to secure the future - his daughter Meríliel (main OC) to the legendary Glorfindel, and his son to Thranduil's line.
But duty cannot command the heart. Meríliel finds herself drawn to Prince Legolas, and their choices will echo through centuries, haunted by pride, loyalty and tragedy.
This tale of forbidden love, political intrigue, and redemption is woven into Tolkien's canon and Jackson’s movies while expanding cultural and linguistic aspects. Grounded heavily in Tolkien's works with original lore to bridge events, the story explores the very same milestones sung about in the Third Age, the ones we only get a glimpse of in the movies. Characters mature, change, and their arcs develop, as well as customs and traditions; this isn't just about memories shaping attitudes, but about what actually happened, and when.
👉 Current update: The War of the Last Alliance was INSANE; we've just started with the Third Age and it’s filled with elflings! 🤭 I hope you enjoy the ride!

Summary
“It is time, old friend,” Ossë’s sibilant voice washed over the elf like foam over sea pebbles, deceptively soft.
“No,” Maglor replied, just as quiet, just as firm.Before Círdan can sail West he has one last task to complete: find Maglor Fëanorion and bring him home. Aided by the capricious maia of the sea, Ossë, it does not prove difficult to find him. The trouble is, Maglor does not want to come.

Summary
A death and a rebirth. Proud Nōwē sunk to the depths as the Shipwright rose, foresighted and wise beyond all else on these shores. And his name was refuge, steadfast friendship and succour in time of need. A cry died unvoiced in his throat, the death knell of the brave and daring young Nōwē. Círdan would have to be so much more.

The title is taken from lyrics of There Is No Ship by Rose Betts.

Summary
Never have I ever written an ABO story, until now.
The usual suspects in a different setting but still having family dynamics from hell and so many grievances. Also, everybody is even younger and more confused than the last time. It is still Arda in spirit and custom but geographically it is more like Earthsea.
Like I feared, this turned out to be a somewhat epic endeavor, with a bunch of children craving attention, mysteries, agricultural problems, battles of different kinds, dreams, omens and portents, Dwarrow, fertility rituals, good and evil Valar and me being unexpectedly lenient towards Kings Thingol and Ingwë. And of course there are dragons, too.
There probably should be more sex, and less meetings, but there is a war to be waged and people to be saved, so busy parents have to take what they can get.
So, Prince Fëanáro is returning to the Isle of Tirion from a bout of island hopping....

Summary
No one else could hold the threads of Lindon’s governance the way Elrond could. No one else could manage the endless petitions, coordinate the guard, balance the accounts, oversee the staff, soothe every minor crisis before it reached the throne.
No one else could be trusted, not really.
And yet, now, neither could Elrond.
Gil-Galad had stripped him of the office, because he had to. Because Elrond had jeopardized the realm, because he had lied and defied orders and made decisions that had nearly dragged Lindon into war.
