Summary
In the aftermath of Sauron’s destruction in Eregion at the hands of an alliance of necessity, two peoples strive to settle centuries of mutual hatred in the knowledge that their common foe would one day return.
Nirien, the niece of High-king Gil-Galad, steps forward after months of futile negotiations, offering herself to seal the strained, hapless peace between the Elves and the Uruks, accepting their Lord Father as her betrothed.
Haunted by her own past and feelings of inadequacy, she leaves her home, unaware of what will await her in the newly established Uruk settlement in the wasteland of Mordor.
How will she navigate Uruk politics, strange customs, faithlessness coming from within the ranks of her uncle and her past catching up with her?
What if she is not received by her betrothed as she had hoped to be? Can Nirien live with the prospect of a loveless marriage? Or will she flee to her uncle’s court in shame and with the knowledge she failed to achieve what nobody thought her capable of to begin with…

Hair like honey, blood like tar by Hiruko_chan

Summary
Before the Southlands there was Utumno, before Utumno- Adar could not remember a life before. As far as he knew, they was no before but at least she had been there. Whether curse or salvation, too little outside Morgoth's corruption and Mairon's experiments remained as that he could discern it - but the part of him that still yearned for her would not care regardless.
He had all but forgotten about her, banished her from his mind but then again, he never could shake Voronwë.
Adar unexpectedly finds the woman with whom everything began. The woman who shielded his sanity in the endless abyss that was Morgoth‘s cruelty. The woman who woke something inside him no woman before or after her ever did. The woman his children once called Naneth

Bonds Between Chaos and Order by Nekroticism, Varda_Star_Queen

Summary
When fading metal icon Adar is forced into a high-profile collaboration with Ghash—a feral, tattooed, fan-favourite rocker—sparks fly on and off the stage. Their explosive chemistry infuriates Adar’s manager and ex, Mairon, a ruthlessly ambitious manipulator who still carries a torch for him.
As tension builds and secrets are exposed, Adar must finally confront his past, his desire for autonomy, and his growing love for Ghash. When everything threatens to come undone, will he choose the familiar same-old—or take a chance on the chaos of something new?
This work was written by Varda_Star_Queen using ideas and an OC created by Nekroticism.
The illustrations were done by Nekroticism.
We hope you enjoy this collaboration that has brought so much fun and joy to us while creating it!- Language:

Summary
Music was everywhere in Middle-earth. From the sound of the river to the rustling of the leaves…to a curious Elven girl.
Ráviel’s life had always been unusual. From being born with a voice that held the power to move the coldest of hearts and unleash yet unexplored destruction to being closer to Dwarves than her own kin.
Was running away from a summons from her king to search for an ancient plant in the Southlands and ending up captured by a group of Orcs and their mesmerising leader instead all that remarkable?For the first time in her life, someone sees her as she really is, but will she be able to protect this fragile connection from all the forces that would see them separated – and the darkness slowly spreading over the lands of Middle-earth once more?
When everything goes quiet, will her song sound loud enough to bring hope to the hopeless, the lost but never mourned and heal the land so it may once more join her music?One thing is for certain – the past can never be buried deep enough, for it will always find a way to catch up to you once you start standing still…

Summary
In the dying embers of the Roman Empire’s northern campaign, General Adar commands a ragged cohort on the edge of ruin. Besieged by sickness and the unforgiving land, his soldiers — the men he loves like the children he could never have — are fading by the day. If he can’t find a cure, he’ll lose them.
In the nearby village of Lindon, Galadriel walks the narrow line between exile and survival. Once her people's most trusted healer, she’s now shunned after a single mistake — trusting the wrong man, and almost dooming the village she swore to protect. The Romans are a threat looming on the horizon, and her hatred burns close to the bone. They killed her brother. She’ll never forgive them.
When Galadriel is captured gathering herbs under the cover of darkness, Adar offers her a cruel bargain: heal his men, and he’ll leave her village untouched. Refuse, and her people will pay the price.
Forced to work side by side, they wage a quiet, bitter war — against sickness, against each other, against an unseen threat that looms ever closer, and against the forbidden desire neither of them dares to name.
if they cross the line between hate and love, it won't be the war that breaks them — it will be each other.Bookmarked by Aelf

Summary
That Melkor is obsessed with her, possessive of her, is under no question. His love, if it can be called that, is demanding and forceful. How she is to survive such attentions from a god that should only exist in fantasy tales, she has no idea. Then there is the elf she met who showed her such kindness, whose face she cannot forget, that tugs at her heart. But such feelings can never be explored without dire consequences. On top of all this is Mairon, who is openly hostile and does not agree with Melkor's regard for her, a constant threat in an already unstable situation.
This is a story of evolving relationships, complicated feelings, tough choices, survival, and forgiveness throughout the First Age of Arda.

Summary
When Eleneth is captured by Adar, the ruthless commander of the orcs in the Southlands, she expects her life to be forfeit. Instead, she's drawn into a dangerous alliance with an enemy whose motivations run deeper than she imagined. Tasked with healing the brutal orcs, Eleneth discovers Adar's true desire - to destroy Sauron, the Dark Lord who once corrupted him.
Torn between her loyalty to her people and her growing connection to Adar, Eleneth faces impossible choices. The bond between them deepens, yet shadows of mistrust remain. With Sauron's return looming and both sides preparing for war, Eleneth must decide - Will she help Adar seek redemption and protect Middle-earth from the ultimate evil, or flee home to a fragile, temporary safety?
In this high-stakes tale of moral conflict, shifting allegiances, and forbidden attraction, Eleneth and Adar must confront the darkness within themselves, and each other, before it's too late.

Summary
In an alternate universe where everyone is a werelion, Galadriel is part of Adar’s pride of females. It is that time of the month again – the heat – and when waiting for her turn with the alpha, she decides to break the norm. Why can’t she be with Halbrand and the boys – a coalition pack of eager bachelor males? Yes, why indeed. :)
This is basically the same premise (and partly the same plot (what plot?)) as the first work in this series, but set in another fandom, and the smut is different. ;)

"Maglor?" Elrond wheezed in disbelief, holding Adar by the waist as he tried to sit up, but Adar pushed him down, bristling at the name.
"Not quite," he replied, digging his fingers into Elrond's cheeks.
Had the bite of the cold already affected his mind?
Set after 2x08.

A herald in Mordor by Herbalspells (Jedi_librarian) for Archraven

Summary
Adar has declared himself King of Mordor. And a King is always in need of a herald. Unfortunately, he has his eyes set on one herald in particular. There is nothing that would make Gil-Galad part with his herald, except that Adar has promised to recall his children to Mordor and trouble the peoples of Middle-Earth no longer. He will also lend his army in the fight against Sauron.
And though Elrond feels that he would sooner die, it is painfully clear what the lesser of the two evils are, and the whole of Middle-Earth is at stake. Besides, they only need a few months in order to defeat Sauron, once they have done that then he will be able to return to Lindon for good. This is just a temporary sacrifice. And his dear friend and brother Prince Durin will not be far away.
AU that takes place just after Season 2 Episode 1, when Elrond is working at the boathouse, but just before Galadriel goes to talk to him about joining the mission to Eregion.

Destiny is a mirror, altered by the density of the medium through which its light reflects. Some light might end up creating new patterns, new images, but others can only ever bend back into their original form.

As Numenor grows bolder, the nations of Eriador poise on the edge of a knife. Will war break out once more? Will the orcs prove as treacherous as Commander Galadriel fears?
