Summary
While her kin prepare to sail west, Galadriel makes another choice — to remain, chasing the fragile promise of mending what shadow has poisoned in Middle-earth.
On that path, she crosses a stranger whose chains are more than iron. Survival draws them closer in ways neither expected, and with each step that closeness cuts deeper against the secrets he keeps. What first seems like salvation may instead bind her to something far more perilous.

Summary
There are glimpses of a life she can’t remember. Grey eyes, the start of creation, the imprint of a holly leaf against her skin under the collarbone. There is gentle hands curled around her and spells whispered in Sindar and Quenya as they watch the ages pass.
Then she cast down by the Valar for a singular purpose: To be the defender of those who cannot defend themselves against Sauron. Whereas the Stranger lands with the Harfoots, she lands within Eregion’s rivers.
Celebrimbor calls her Lirien.

Summary
Pojawia się niespodziewanie, w świetle największej z gwiazd, a Śródziemie nie wita jej z rozłożonymi ramionami. Od nowa zmuszona jest nauczyć się życia pośród beztroskich, lecz zawziętych ludzi, w ich towarzystwie pragnie dowiedzieć się, kim tak naprawdę jest, jednak prawdę odszukać może tylko wśród elfów, najsilniejszych sojuszników przeciwko ich wspólnemu wrogowi, tak bliskiemu w przeszłości.
On nie powstrzyma się przed kuszeniem jej do przejścia na jego stronę, ona nie wie, czy istnieje ktoś, kto będzie w stanie sprowadzić ją na drogę dobra, a niektóre elfy, najinteligentniejsze spośród ras, nie są skłonne do zaufania osobliwej przybyszce, nawet w obliczu wojny, nawet jeśli zdaje się być im bliska.

Summary
As an emissary of the gods - one of the istari sent by the Valar themselves - she had a purpose in this world. A task to fulfill. But after years of senseless wandering and cruel losses, even the most loyal servant can lose hope. She had done her part and yet - the great victory that was promised never came to be. And after all that has happened, after all that she has sacrificed for a higher purpose she did not believe in, Amara is fed up with the dealings of the gods. Especially now, being stuck with a fellowship she did not like on a journey she did not even think would succeed.
or
Three wizards and three witches - the istaris - were sent to fight off evil but after years of suffering and failures Amara is so done with the dealings of the gods.

Summary
The Elvenking of the Woodland Realm was a most prideful creature. Gandalf understood this and respected him – for all that Thranduil was difficult to deal with at the best of times – and it was not usually the Istar’s inclination to interfere in the privacy of the Elves, but the old wizard believed it now time to break certain habits.
They called Gandalf a meddling sort of wizard, and so a meddling sort of wizard he would be.

Summary
For the lovely @ladylouoflothlorien who requested this, I hope you enjoy! see A/N and timeline for this story. Reader is an elf child from Celebrian’s escort travelling from Imladris to Lothlorien in TA 2509. For context, Osgiliath was lost in TA 2475. Quote in italics from Unfinished Tales, JRR Tolkien.
"Hi hon, could I please request something with Saruman & Reader where the reader was rescued by him as a child and has been raised by him. Something a little angsty where they’re watching his descent into madness and serving the dark lord. Maybe he tries to hide what’s going on from them but they were raised smart and it’s not exactly difficult to figure out. I think this definitely calls for some(?) angst but as for where the loyalties and morality of the reader lie by the end of it is completely up to you. I just saw you were interested in writing for Saruman and this popped into my head, which is strange because I haven’t written anything like this before!!"

Summary
Ever most vigilant was Mithrandir, and he it was that most doubted the darkness in Mirkwood, for though many deemed that it was wrought by the Ringwraiths, he feared that it was indeed the first shadow of Sauron returning; and he went to Dol Guldur, and the Sorcerer fled from him, and there was a watchful peace for a long while.

Summary
When the shadows deepen, Gandalf remembers the Light and his lord, Manwë. But that, too, is painful for a Maia thus severed from the West, as a starved spiritual bond with one's Vala is not something to be taken lightly.
