    Summary

    “Come on.” Maedhros grabbed his hand and pulled him along down the path, both of them quickening their pace now, until the trees opened up into a wide meadow filled with flowers, bright yellow celandine and dandelions and sweet-scented pale chamomile mingling with cornflowers and irises. On the other side of it was a larger party than Maglor had ever seen in Lórien—five figures sitting in the grass. Huan barked again, and they all looked up. “It seems everyone has come to fetch us home,” Maedhros said, laughing, as all their brothers scrambled to their feet.

     

    After years in Lórien, Maglor and Maedhros are ready to return to their family and to make something new with their lives--but to move forward, all of Fëanor's sons must decide how, or if, they can ever reconcile with their father.

    Summary

    Sauron the Deceiver had once promised Celebrimbor and his people in Eregion knowledge to make rings of power - power even to manipulate time and slow the decaying of their beloved Middle-earth.

    Apparently, the Lord of Gifts gave more than he intended to. Celebrimbor and Galadriel find themselves thrown back in time with their rings after Celebrimbor's torment and death in Angband.

    Neither of them feel inclined to allow the events of the First Age to play out a second time.

    Summary

    The Silmarillion, as told by Caranthir's wife in her memoirs.

    Needless to say, she is extremely biased. On the other hand, so is Pengolodh - just in the other direction...

    Summary

    Companion story to The Works of Curufinwë. Here, I give a name to Curufin's wife, and speculate on what her relationship with Curufin may have been like.

    This is the story of Curufin's family, of the two people closest to his heart. His wife Tancaquárë, and his son Celebrimbor.
    For the sake of his great love for his father, Curufin tore apart what he treasured the most. He wounded them grievously, and crushed his own spirit in the process.

    Yet, despite everything, this little family's love endures.

    Summary

    ...everyone here seemed to think Daeron should return to them equally unchanged, the same merry minstrel he had been long ago before the Girdle had been breached. He was yet a minstrel, and he was often merry, but he had seen and done so much that so many here could never even imagine. He had come very close to death more than once, and yet survived. He did not care what others might think of him, really—except for a select few—but it would be tiresome to be always catching them off guard, and his love for one of the sons of Fëanor would catch many very much off guard, he knew.

     

    Daeron settles back in among his own people, travels to Tirion--and meets Fëanor.

    And I said, "Oh my, what a marvelous tune"
    It was the best night, never would forget how she moved

    Like we're made of starlight, starlight

    Summary

    In the first year of the Fourth Age, after three thousand one hundred and thirty-eight unhappy, furious, grieving years of being reborn into an Aman that has been trying very hard to pretend that everything is absolutely fine ever since Morgoth was banished from the world, Fingon the Valiant walked through the Door of Night into the Void to seek the fëa of Maedhros, Kinslayer, Self-Slain, who hated himself so much upon the moment of his death that he chose Everlasting Darkness voluntarily.

    He left behind an extended family who is shocked and appalled to learn of this decision - and that Námo the Doomsman was the one holding the Door open for him.

    Or: The last time one of the House of Finwë fell at the hands of a Vala in Aman, the Silmarillion happened.

    Summary

    No matter how dark things got in his life, Celebrimbor had one point of light: his wife Vinyáre who stayed at his side throughout almost all the first age and most of the second age. She was the only one who could pull him away from his work, even when Annatar tried to keep him in the smithy to finish the Rings of Power.

    After losing him to the Dark Lord because Celebrimbor sent her and their twins Melion and Aendis away to protect them from Sauron's grasp, the ellon determined to keep them safe. Vinyáre leaves for Valinor with the little bits of family she still has left and reunites with her parents, mother-in-law and grandmother-in-law.

    Spending the next few centuries patiently waiting for him to return to her and their children from the halls of Mandos, Vinyáre is determined to stay strong and look after her family and try to stay true to the little title her husband had given her:

    Best of wives and best of women

    Summary

    The title. But I can't resist tangents, so everyone in the tags is also discussed to explain why I like it that way. Considering the excursus on Finrod and Galadriel's actions in the First Age, perhaps this is the spiritual successor to my essay on Angrod and Aegnor.

    Also treated is Celebrimbor, because one of his origin stories relates to the matter of Telerin Celeborn. Thus I also ended up writing an excursus on Curufin.

    Also including an appendix (chapter 2) on a bit of fridge horror regarding the Ban on Galadriel.

    Summary

    “We would not have done it if they just gave the ships as Atar asked. We did nothing wrong. Or, it wasn’t very wrong. Anyway, it will be more dangerous here, because everything is dangerous here. The sea, the mist, wandering off by yourself because the camp is too loud…”

    Summary

    There’s hardly anything to do in the Hall of Mandos, but to think. About his brothers. About the absence of their father. About Maglor, still stranded on the shores of Middle Earth. His mother, safe from the evils of this world, yet separated from all whom she (hopefully still) loves. His wife, who he hadn’t seen in just as long. His own hands, itching, twitching with the need to just do something about it.

     

    But give Curufin another millenia and the thought of getting busted out of the Halls wouldn’t have even crossed his mind.
