    "I was deceived by my own mind and even my heart conspired against me in the blue shadows of the night. And yet, these crimes remained unnoticed in myself whilst all the world watched on as I made a fool of my crown and honour. What am I? What am I but a disgrace of a khuzd? and I shall not mention my crown again for it should not belong to me."

    Summary

    The idle thought at the back of Glinda’s mind is that Nessarose never talked about her sister as beautiful.

    She shakes herself to stop those thoughts, knowing she can’t have them, and instead gives Elphaba a smile. “Congratulations,” she says sweetly. “Nessarose never told me how talented you were.”

    “Thank you,” Elphaba says, and takes a sip of her champagne. “So kind of you to come over when there are still reporters watching.”

    “I...I didn’t-”

    Summary

    When the days grow darker still, the wind howls from the north, and the wolves crawl out of the wood; that is how the free folk of Middle Earth know the Long Night will fall, where the sun won't rise for three days. Loved ones must stay together for warmth and safety until the sun rises on the Yuletide celebration.
    In a place of security, it's a beautiful time of cheer, feasting, and family warmth inside the home.
    However, when one is without home, it becomes a very different story.

    Thorin learned this as the exiled King of the Dwarfs. Even after reclaiming Erebor, his bitterness persists. No one would share their warmth by the fire during the Long Night, his people, in times of need. And now, everyone is crawling to him and his Halls for aid...why should he?

    Summary

    [currently on pause. about 70% done I'd say]

     

    In the ruins of the old dwarvish Kingdom Belegost, a prophecy is found. It heralds the end of the rule of Durin's line in Erebor. Gandalf, who is scared of losing the Kingdom to darker forces, volunteers Bilbo Baggins to help prevent the Prophecy from coming true. While Bilbo stays in Erebor he has a tendency to bud heads with Prince Thorin and can't wait for the break of spring when he can finally return to his cosy Shire-home.
