    Summary

    Valinor was every bit as beautiful as the songs promised.

    Its streets glittered with the dust of diamonds, gleaming under the radiant light of a sun that shone brighter, purer over the hallowed lands than it ever had over Middle-earth. The peaks of the Pelori, soaring and snowcapped, loomed pristine in the distance, mocking her with every glimpse. These were not mountains that had ever known the tread of an orc's foot, nor suffered spilt blood or harrowed screams. Even the sands of Eldamar were white and silken underfoot, nothing like the abrading grit of the beaches of Belfalas where her mother had once reigned.

    Celebrían hated it.

    Summary

    There is a hope that only exists in words spoken between Maedhros and Maglor and lives truly in neither of them. Children are vulnerable to injury and Mannish children are often ill. They know that much. These children, in particular, have proven to have a bent towards sickness already; they are swept up in the changing of the seasons. But it has never been serious before.

    Only temporary. Only a mild poison, a brief convalescence, a quick return to health.

    And yet the coughing goes on.

    A few years after the third kinslaying, Elrond gets sick.

    Summary

    Celebrimbor Tyelperinquar, once the youngest to be carried over the sea in the dark rocking hold of a ship where he was too afraid to look at the water, listens now to the sigh of waves on pebble shores beneath his window and lets the thought of it calm him. May Elwing hear him in whatever form she bears now, feathered spirit or finned ghost, and know he seeks to bring her children safely home. May Eärendil pause at the prow of his ship and believe once again that nothing is without hope.

    After the Third Kinslaying and the sack of Sirion, Celebrimbor writes to his uncles.

    After surviving the Battle of Hogwarts, Ariel Evans is far from the hero everyone expects her to be. Haunted by cryptic letters and the cold distance of her father, she navigates a world that feels both familiar and fractured. As unsettling truths rise and an unexpected connection with Theodore Nott sparks, Ariel must face the shadows of her past — and the light she thought was gone forever.

    Summary

    Tom Riddle is dead. There is absolutely, positively, one-hundred-percent no way he's skulking around Grimmauld Place haunting their post-war life.

    Of course, it's no use trying to tell him that.
