    Summary

    Instead of experiencing a crushing defeat, the Union of Maedhros in successful at the Battle of Unnumbered Tears, sealing Morgoth in Angband and recovering two of the three Silmarils.

    ...Apparently not all of Mandos' prophecies come true, and fate CAN be overcome (especially when you throw humans and a very stubborn Maia into the mix). That doesn't prevent everyone from Turgon to the Valar being baffled by Maedhros's seeming triumph over Doom, of course.

    In which everyone (except Morgoth) gets a happy ending

    Summary

    Set in the Fourth Age after the War of the Ring.
    The time of the elves is waning, prompting many to prepare for their journey to the west. However, everything changes with the arrival of Charlotte, a former archaeologist turned Middle Earth tourist. Summoned by the Valar on a mysterious mission, she finds herself in a time of peace without understanding the purpose of her presence. As she quests for answers, she realizes that healing an immortal heart is a formidable challenge, while Thranduil grapples with his own desires.

    The story unfolds at a deliberate pace, allowing for meticulous character development, rich historical detail, and realistic depictions of long-distance travel. It caters to enthusiasts who appreciate a MgiME heroine well-versed in the HoME and a fan of the First Age. Moreover, this fan fiction explores the concept of individuals knowledgeable about the books being occasionally sent to Middle Earth in attempts to rectify certain events.

    Summary

    The annals record this:
    The cruel servants of Celegorn seize Dior's sons…and leave them to starve in the forest. (Nothing is known about their fate, but some say that the birds succoured them, and led them to Ossir.)*

    What has been lost is this:
    Elurín and Eluréd did not die. They came close, certainly; but when all seemed lost, they found someone who taught them how to survive, and who taught them the language of the birds.

    History has forgotten the sons of Dior, but they have not forgotten how to make history.

    Summary

    Maitimo was crossing the courtyard, thinking of nothing in particular, when his father burst out of his workshop, where he had been holed up for the last several days, neither eating nor, as far as anyone could tell, sleeping. “Maitimo!” he cried, eyes alight with the fire of success. “Come! Come and see!”

    Summary

    Straight-up crack.

    Some stories are set within the same continuity/universe, some are not. Stories are not necessarily canonical to the larger pan-fandom multiverse which is why we don't use the "Flameborn (Multiverse)" tag here.

    Stories are not in chronological order.

    Complete for now, but we might be inspired for future installments.

    Summary

    Finarfin looked his brother over. Fëanor looked awful. His clothes were tattered and his body was littered with raw burns.
    “Fëanáro?” Finarfin hesitantly, “How… I don’t understand….”
    “Me neither,” Fëanor grunted.

     

    For better or worse, Finarfin is haunted by the spirits of his brothers

    Summary

    The Silmaril falls slowly, so slowly, as if taking its time to caress the weightlessness of Ulmo’s waters. Does it seek relief also, Maglor wonders, to be free at last of all the hands that lusted after its blessed shine?

    Maglor casts his Silmaril into the Sea.
