Summary
The impossible happened: a Silmaril has been stolen from Morgoth’s crown. Maedhros decides to reunite the People of Beleriand against the Enemy and attack him while he is still unprepared, which is by no means less impossible. Meanwhile, in the hidden city of Gondolin, Lord Glorfindel of the Golden Flower pursues the meaning of his recurring dreams – only to realize that he is not the only one to see them...
|| A novel-length canon gapfiller on the Union of Maedhros, the Nirnaeth Arnoediad and the downfall of the Sons of Feanor; plus my take on what could have been going on in Gondolin between the Bragollach and the Nirnaeth. ||

Summary
Ezt a történetet elsősorban a Potter-generáció mára felnőtt tagjainak ajánlom (meg mindenkinek, aki szereti a vodkát Martinivel).
Ha szívesen végigkövetnéd Harryék kalandjait Az azkabani fogolytól kezdve, de felnőtt szemszög(ek)ből, akkor várlak kalanddal, összeesküvéssel, politikával, ármánnyal, románccal, barátsággal, hűséggel, csalárdsággal, Bob Roshta háttérsztorijával, egy beszélő menyéttel, rengeteg alkohollal, meg képzelj ide még 3 random dolgot, biztos, hogy mindet beleírtam. Hogy igazat írt-e a Hírverő, kinyírja-e Siriust a függöny, és legyőzi-e a jó a gonoszt, azt ne, lövöm le; de minden tőlem telhetőt elkövettem azért, hogy úgy érezd, a HP-t olvasod, csak egy kicsit máshogy.
A sorozat BEFEJEZETT. Kérlek, sem egészben, sem részleteiben, sem koncepcionális szinten ne etesd meg AI-val.

Patience Is A Virtue (A Companion to The Seven Gates) by Laerthel

Summary
Maedhros sends Amrod and Amras to Doriath: their task is to try and convince Thingol to hand over the Silmaril willingly and join his Union to defeat Morgoth. Against all hope and expectation, the twins actually try.
Oneshot; set within the narrative frame of my 'The Seven Gates', during the six month timejump between Chapter 30 (The Lord of the Gap) and Chapter 31 (The Second Betrayal). Also, chapters 36 and 37 will be a lot funnier if you read this first.

Insensitivity: A Star Wars story by ten-summoners-fails (Laerthel) for EvaldMark

Summary
The Galactic Empire has fallen. The New Republic Senate reigns over the battered ruins of Coruscant, trying to prevent the outbreak of civil wars within troubled worlds. Among desperate attempts to quell the feuds and misunderstandings between species, Jedi Master Luke Skywalker brings an unsettling request in front of the Senate: he wants to start teaching a new generation of Jedi – but how can he guarantee that his apprentices will not turn to the Dark Side?
Against Mon Mothma’s wishes, Luke takes off to find Force sensitive individuals. His search leads him to the muddy casino planet of Umgul with his old friend Lando Calrissian to find Tymmo, a man with devilish luck and a seemingly serious case of gambling addiction – and not a single flicker of Force sensitivity.
Why would the strings of their fate tie them together, then?And what has the infamous bounty hunter Cad Bane got to do with it all?
(Being part of a thoroughly reimagined - and altered - version of Kevin J. Anderson’s ‘Jedi Search’ from the Legends, tying a bit into Moff Gideon’s story in ‘The Mandalorian’. Tymmo/ Dack is a Legends character, I just added a few layers to his backstory.)

Translations from the Elvish, by B. B.: The Extended Edition by Laerthel

31 May 2025
Summary
A selection of my Tolkien fics that a) remain especially close to the canon of the legendarium or b) seek to expand it; mostly starring the house of Feanor (or the more extended House of Finwe). All writings within this series are consistent with each other, but most can be read separately as well.

By the eyes of beasts of prey by Angamaite

Summary
After the Nírnaeth Arnoediad, Celegorm and Curufin occasionally range far from Amon Ereb in an attempt to stem the tide of Morgoth's armies into Beleriand somewhat. This kind of idleness does not become the Oath once the Silmaril has appeared in Doriath again; Celegorm only needs a willing ear.
The academic conversation that stood at the beginning of the end.

Summary
“The Maedhros who stands before his son is not one thing but many. He is a struck-down statue. He is a fading demon. He is a sword in a nuclear war. He is historical debris. He is the sum of a nation’s ruin. He is the first sunset of the Empire’s apocalypse. He is Elrond’s beloved Baba, who would find him under every starless sky. Archives will dissect him. Historians will redeem him. Writers will swallow him whole.”
In 1937, notorious Indian revolutionaries Maedhros Fëanorian and his brother Maglor, take in a British colonial officer's twin sons and raise them to adulthood. Decades later, Elrond Peredhel, trying to leave a family tragedy behind in England, returns to India during a time of political turbulence and finds that everything, from the national landscape to his firebrand father, the ineffable Comrade Maedhros, has changed.

Summary
"...[Fëanor] died; but he had neither burial nor tomb, for so fiery was his spirit that as it sped his body fell to ash, and was borne away like smoke; and his likeness has never again appeared in Arda, neither has his spirit left the halls of Mandos."
What if his spirit has never left the halls of Mandos because it never went there in the first place?
Fëanor, dead, watches the First Age unfold, and his children endure. A detailed account of Maedhros and Maglor's time on the Eastern Front of the War of Wrath, with Elrond and Elros growing up. [Thanks to pp for beta reading]Series
