    Summary

    Jane never expected her expat life in Dubai, full of deadlines and distant dreams, to vanish in the blink of an eye. One moment she was a witty, sharp tongued woman of twenty seven with a lifelong love for Tolkien's tales. The next, she woke in a land of shadowed mountains and golden fields. Middle Earth.

    When she stumbles upon Prince Théodred of Rohan, left for dead on the battlefield, Jane's quick mind alter the course of fate. Saving him ties her to a destiny she never imagined: drawn into the war against Saruman and Sauron, where loyalty, courage, and love are tested on every front.

    But Jane carries more than just knowledge of another world. Her humor shields her, her heart betrays her, and her growing bond with the wounded prince sets fire to everything she thought she knew about herself. Among kings and warriors, she must choose whether she is a guest in this world, or a woman brave enough to shape it.

    Summary

    “The Fellowship is to set out in December,” Lord Elrond explained, “I require your services as a Messenger to travel with them, until you’ve passed the mountains, or until Gandalf sees fit to release you.”
    Panic coiled in Rhosynel’s chest, as two things became apparent. Firstly, that she could easily end up roped into travelling further on the whims of a wizard. And secondly, that if word reached her employer that she point-blank refused Lord Elrond, she’d be kicked from the Messenger services.
    In other words, Rhosynel was trapped.

    *

    Working as a messenger Rhosynel is accustomed to travelling the length and breadth of Middle Earth, so carrying a missive to the village of Bree should have been easy. But this simple task sets off a chain of events, entangling her in the lives of strangers and the fate of Middle Earth, which leaves her fighting to keep both them, and herself, alive.

    Updates mondays.

    Summary

    Kara is at the end of her nursing shift when a violent man is brought in with an arrow wound. When he spits blood on her, Kara is transported elsewhere. Soon she's doing emergency wound care on book characters and trying not to lose it. She can't watch people suffer even if it isn't real, but Aragorn is very suspicious of a woman who tells no clear story and smells like an orc.

    “Stranger things have happened than you or I have years to tell of it," Gandalf said. "Why does she unsettle you? Surely you do not feel threatened. I am tolerably certain you could defeat her if it came to violence.”
    Aragorn scoffed at his gentle humor. “I’m glad to amuse you. There are more dangers than warriors and swords. Need I tell a wizard that?"
    “I can assure you she is not evil and has not a whisper of magic.”
    “Yet a beautiful woman appears directly in our path, leagues from civilization, and immediately gains the hobbits’ trust. No wizardry, you say?”
    Kara was not *unhappy* at being called a beautiful woman (although his standards for human women, as opposed to elves, were probably low), but she was unhappy to be stuck eavesdropping. She’d seen this scene too many times in movies. They would definitely see her.

    Summary

    Zuko's soul marks have been regularly burned away since before he knew what they meant. He knows that he cannot be loyal to his father and his nation while also being loyal to a soul family, so he doesn't look for them. Unfortunately, that means that he doesn't know when he's found them.
