Summary
Tensions run high as Adar and Elrond meet to negotiate outside the besieged city of Eregion. When the Elven commander refuses to give up the ring of power, Adar suggests an alternative solution that catches the Half-elf by surprise. The Moriondor will agree to an alliance between Uruks and Elves upon one very specific condition...a diplomatic marriage between Elrond and himself.
Elrond must grapple with political duty and personal desires as he considers Adar's proposal. Is he willing to surrender himself to the enemy for the sake of peace? Can the Half-elf heal a wounded Middle-earth by binding himself to a ruthless stranger?
Adar knows his desire for the Half-elf is dangerous, but he cannot resist his gentle beauty. Conquest requires patience both on and off the battlefield, and the Moriondor is determined to win Elrond's hand as well as his heart.

Summary
Somehow Morgoth has returned. As he wishes to expand his armies to regain power and cannot create Maiar on his own, he resorts to his former servant Mairon, now held in captivity as a slave, to breed him some. As Melkor searches through the Maia’s mind, he knows exactly how to further torture his former chief lieutenant, and which Elf to choose to carry out his perverse plan.

Summary
After the end of season 2, the elves are building a haven in what will become Imladris and gathering their armies to strike back against Sauron. The scar left above Galadriel's heart by the spike of Morgoth's crown is healing. They may have lost the battle, but they have not yet lost the war.
And yet sometimes that scar aches. Sometimes she hears Halbrand's voice calling to her. And when two masked figures calling themselves Gaudrim arrive from Rhûn, saying they are elves of long-lost Doriath, Galadriel will not be the only one who finds healing a more complicated thing than it first appears.
(featuring: my those-Gaudrim-are-Sindarin-elves theory, Galadriel's crown stab injury as a Morgul-wound type of thing, masks, healing, and the overlap between marriage bonds and sorcery bonds.)

Summary
Adar finds an unlikely ally in Eragion after his children turn on him in a bout of unexpected battle madness. Surely this time, the elf he’s brought home really will help him defeat Sauron instead of using his mercy as an opportunity to kill dozens of orcs AGAIN. Surely this time he can truly defeat Sauron and keep the Uruk safe, right?
Celebrimbor manages to survive being tortured by Sauron. Now he just has to survive teaming up with the army that invaded his city, the heartbreak of his lover and his smiths turning on him, and the psychic damage that comes from being the son of an infamous kingdom-killer working with someone called Lord Father.
(Or: Sauron’s exes unionize, rebound together, and try and get custody of the kids. Canon divergence after ROP s2e6. Let's get out of Ost-in-Edhil with a lower body count!)

Summary
But still, still, he didn’t know that he was lonely until Mairon appeared. He didn’t want light until he saw his light. He had never wanted to hear a voice until Mairon spoke to him. And when Mairon touched him… he had never been touched before by any hand. He felt this touch as if Mairon had reached into his heart. Mairon knew him - all that there was to know of him, which was nothing but emptiness, loneliness - his terrible, terrible longing.

Adar finally enjoys a sunny day by the river in peace, barely spoiled by reminiscing on his first awakening in Cuiviénen, and his terrible rebirth in Sauron's hands. He also makes friends with a wasp.Series
