Summary
Nihal had not even gone too far from the coast before she was pulled under by an unnatural current. She did not have time to cry for help, and her goggles did not help her find her way back to the surface either. It was dark and silent for a long, long time until she opened her eyes again at another time and another place, in a body that was not her own. In a world which she had always known to be that of fiction.
She was a complete stranger now. A stranger to this new world and the people around her. And most importantly, a stranger to herself. Turns out, the perspective of an outsider was exactly what Ulmo believed this world needed to prove the others wrong.
Follow Nihal in her journey across the First Age as she struggles to find her place in this alien world as Eärien, and navigates through the frustrating elvish, human, and dwarven politics in hopes of accomplishing the mission that Ulmo had thrust upon her. She will need not only her prior knowledge of the books but also her wit and non-existent survival skills.
Welcome to Arda Marred.
