    Summary

    All believed that the fall of Eregion would mark the beginning of an age of war between the Elves and the armies of Mordor. But in the meantime, another peril has fallen upon Middle-earth.
    An ancient evil is on the verge of being unleashed from the Void. And Sauron, having just regained his power and begun establishing his own dominion, is determined to prevent its return —a return that would bring utter ruin to the land he has long sought to heal.
    To fulfill his purpose and resist the pull of the shadows, he turns to Galadriel, proposing an alliance.

    [set after season 2]

    Summary

    For eleven years, Galadriel has lived in hiding, calling herself Galwen, tending to the wounded, and hunting for the people of Arnad-Dûn. But shadows gather at the edges of her quiet existence - unnatural killings in the woods, whispers of orcs moving south, and the unshakable truth that she has stayed too long.

    Then comes a man on the North Road. A man with haunted eyes and an enigmatic nature - Halbrand. He is running from his past, just as she is, but neither of them can truly escape the fates that chase them. Against the backdrop of a growing war, they find solace in each other - two souls bound by longing, by grief, by a love that was never meant to be.

    But Galadriel is not who she claims to be, and Halbrand is not just a lost wanderer. And when the truth comes to light, they will have to face the cruelest question of all: Can love win out? And is it worth the pain of losing it?

    Summary

    Galadriel and Halbrand are in Númenor. When she is thrown in jail for sedition against the Queen Regent, she and Halband find themselves alone and able to plan for the future. Galadriel is bent on continuing her quest to find Morgoth's Shadow, but Halbrand attempts to change her plans. He plants within her mind the idea that she should rest. Relax. Cease her journey. His words worm their way into her innermost being and what should have been the bridge to the next leg of her hunt for Sauron turns into an opportunity to help the Queen Regent with a problem of her own. As Galadriel works to avert a crisis heading for Numenor, she and Halbrand grow closer and closer, even to the point of falling in love.

    But Galadriel doesn't know what lurks beneath the surface… That the very one she seeks is beneath her own passionate hands. That the destruction of Numenor resides in the intentions of the man she has come to love more than life itself.

    *This is a canon-divergent fic, with things in Númenor happening differently than they do in The Rings of Power Season One.
