    Summary

    “Rumor has it,” he eventually started after another sip of water, “that it has been prophesied that Melkor will one day summon the strength to break out of his prison. He will reenter Arda with his full power back, but this time naught will be able to stop him but a lone man."

    ---

    Eönwë helps Mairon realize his self-worth isn’t determined by Melkor’s opinion on him while trying to convince him to come back to Valinor.

    Summary

    A letter is found, written by burnt and bleeding hands, having stood-though barely-the tests of time…as its author did not.

     

    Behold, I come from the West, and with me I bring the red fire of my forefathers: a burning flame that can never go out.’

    Faramir and then Galadriel seek to comfort Arwen, after she and Aragorn suffer the loss of something-that-might-have-been, and as Arwen learns that becoming a mother can require daring to drink from a well of sorrows again and again. Galadriel shares the story of a loss of her own, and of how Arwen's father Elrond - her nephew, protégé, and friend - had helped her to move past it.

    Summary

    This is the end, thinks Maglor, here by the same Sea where he saw Elrond and Elros grow up. He never did get to repair that second-last pair of boots that Elros wore until his toes poked out of the broken seams.

    How do you face it? The end.

    Maglor picks up the threads of the Noldolantë in his blistered, burned hands once more, tasting the salt of grief and the salt of the Sea that will not absolve him. 'With the thought that when we go forth, you will be safe.'

  11. 12

    Summary

    Short, angsty pieces centered on Elrond, Elros, Maglor and Maedhros. The first and second are set right before and right after the War of Wrath, and focus on how Elrond and Elros were left with Gil-galad as well as the theft of the Silmarils. The third is centered around the choice of the Peredhel and how each character experienced it, and I hopefully will have a fourth up soon, which is going to break the theme a little with some happy stuff, but will still involve lots of angst.

    Summary

    Findaráto is able to slip away in all the confusion following the War of Wrath, and he makes his way east across Beleriand into new lands, not expecting the horror that will follow behind him.

    (for the B2MeM prompt 3/9/2020: At last, weary and feeling finally defeated, he sat on a step below the level of the passage-floor and bowed his head into his hands. It was quiet, horribly quiet. The torch, that was already burning low when he arrived, sputtered and went out; and he felt the darkness cover him like a tide. And then softly, to his own surprise, there at the vain end of his long journey and his grief, moved by what thought in his heart he could not tell, Sam began to sing. (Return of the King, Book VI, Chapter 1))

    (ALSO, I've finally given in and made this a series of loosely-connected oneshots, since so many of my ficlets for B2MeM are about this story!)

    Summary

    As the Silmaril burns his hand, in agony and hopelessness, Maedhros forswears the Oath and calls the Everlasting Darkness upon him. But the Oath does not easily release its takers, and the bonds placed upon him in Angband were more than just physical chains. With curses upon curses laid within both his body and spirit, to part the two is no easy matter, but the Oath demands his death— so to his death he must go, no matter how gruesome and cruel it may be.

    (От автора)
    В конце Войны гнева, во время затопления Белерианда море достигает разоренного Таргелиона, где когда-то были владения Карантира, и озера Хелеворн у подножия горы Рерир.

    (От переводчика)
    Что случится теперь с той, что жила в глубине озера? Сможет ли она выжить — и остаться собой?

    Summary

    Something haunts the ruins of Utumno and the tundra surround: memories of the War of Wrath haunt him, and remind him of his lack of identity in the endless present of his hungry and cold existence until, finally, he leaves the past behind for the uncertain blizzard of a future hope.

    Summary

    Centered around a reoccurring cast of original characters - or at least characters unnamed in the text - from Nargothrond, namely the ten companions of Finrod and Beren and friends who did not go. The name references two things: first the red hand in Beren's sigil, the second the name of Matt Cauthon's army from The Wheel of Time. The other unifying feature of these stories is that they are often fusions or at least partly based on characters from other series (like WoT) adapted into The Silmarillion.
