    Summary

    Fëanor was given a second chance.

    Sent years and years before he even started working on the Silmarils, he tried to fix everything and devised in his mind the most genius of plans.

    Step 1: Make sure his kids know he values them more than a stupid jewel (even if that jewel is his magnum opus), so they don't ruin their lives over them.

    Step 2: The kids are suspicious and call for Finwë to come to the rescue.

    You can't face your father yet, so change of plans.

    Step 1 (again): Remember every horrible thing that happened to you and your family and wallow in how big of a failure you are. Everyone is better off without you.

    Or:

    Fëanor is sent back away from the consequences of his actions, but not his trauma. Now, everyone is panicked, thinking he is fading.

    Fëanor is too busy wallowing in self-pity and misery to notice that he is giving everyone a fright.

    Or:

    Spending years helpless in the Halls of Mandos, watching everything go wrong, affected Fëanor more than he would like to admit.

    Summary

    Though he fell on the field of unnumbered tears, on the eve of what would have been the fall of Doriath, Fingon once again gives Maedhros the greatest of all gifts:

    Mercy.

    Summary

    Mairon, Lieutenant of Morgoth and one-time Dark Lord in his own right, is not the sort of villain who acquires a morality pet. He does not have one. He does not want one. The fact that he keeps answering emails from Fingon Fingolfinion is... beside the point.

    Direct sequel to The Library of Mandos and A Matter of the Soul, and may not make sense out of context.

    Summary

    Years have passed since their marriage, and Maedhros and Findelwen couldn't be happier. Their families are still the most chaotic royal bunch in the face of Arda, but it's nothing they can't handle. But peace never lasts forever: The Festival of the Trees is appoaching, the moment of the year were Laurelin and Telperion's lights shine brighter. It should be a moment of celebration, but instead it will be a moment of darkness like no one has ever seen.

    WARNING: This fic is much darker than the last, due to the themes of tragedy, captivity and torture. You better have some tissues with you, because this will be a very emotional read. Seriously, I cried while writting this. Have a good read!

    Summary

    Eöl was the original dark elf and so Maeglin can't recover in the Halls of Mandos, Aredhel can't leave the Halls without her son, and Turgon suffers of a broken family for three bloody ages. Tired of waiting for his beloved sister, Turgon has rallied the Finwëans and Fëanorians against Námo in a war of petition attrition. Námo seems to be throwing up his hands, so maybe let the elves handle their own... except Maeglin doesn't want any of it.

    Summary

    Maedhros Fëanorion died as the First Age died, falling with his Silmaril into a chasm of fire rent within the earth, forever lost. That is the tale that has always been told. That is what everyone has always known.

    Two ages of the world later, on the plains of the Pelennor Fields as the battle slowly dies around them, the Fellowship find out that the story they've heard isn't quite true.

    Summary

    "Maedhros sought destruction body and spirit, and found both. When Mandos summoned him, he refused, and first of them all he has been taken by the void that they swore themselves to. He is not in the world, and will not come again. Deeper darknesses are there than that which Morgoth made below Thangorodrim!” Fingon paused and looked at Finrod. “Should I not then have killed him as he asked me?”

    “No!” said Finrod, but Turgon said nothing.

    Sam grew even more upset. “Now that’s not right,” he said, “that can’t be right! Just or not – and I don’t know that it is, begging your pardon, sir – still, no story should end that way!”

    Summary

    Fingon has been born twice now, onto the same unchanging land - though at very different times, under very different circumstances. Through suffering and through pain, but through equal parts love and companionship, he learns that his homeland is not as unchanging as some might deem it to be. And above all else, both through life and through death, he learns how to heal.

    “But how do you know that they are going to be destroyed? Did someone tell you?”
    “Maitimo, darling, my sweetest of sons, we are burning the ships.” Father finally said, defeat in every line of his body.
    “Oh.” Maitimo said, finally seeming to notice the torches everyone but he held. “Oh.”

    Summary

    People stared at her in Valinor. It was not that scars were unheard of, but few had scars so dreadful as hers. Even with all Elrond’s talent, there was no hiding what she had endured.

     

    Celebrían sailed to Valinor to find healing, but she does not find it. Lorien does her no good and many elves there are unused to scars like hers.

    There is one elf, though, with scars like hers. Maedhros quickly proves that Elrond's memories of him were nearer to the mark than the horror stories she has heard and Celebrían finds herself adopted by the Fëanorians.
