Summary
A sudden flame roars to life in his chest. A flame of devotion. Of duty.
‘I would like to taste victory without it eventually turning to ash in my mouth,’ his Lord said. Mairon will ensure this victory is different.
“Let us stoke their anger and feed their mistrust until they are bloated with both,” he tells him, placing both hands on Melkor’s shoulders. “What better way to do this, then breaking their new king?”
He needs permission to turn the Elf's fate into something more – a proof of weakness for their enemies. A gift of strength for his Lord.
He needs to break him. All so Mairon can point at him and say ‘See? They are weak. Not you. Not me. Not us.’

Summary
Although Melkor would sooner eat his own warhammer than admit this, he might have a bit of a soft spot for his various creatures of Darkness. And Mairon.
This is a tale of missing jewellery, contests, werewolves, dragons, cloaks and daggers; and a very unprofessional relationship between Lord and lieutenant…

Summary
Melkor might have come back from Valinor, but it feels as if he did not come back whole. And in places where the lost pieces are supposed to be, there is a coldness – of a kind that’s new even for him.
Mairon vows to himself – that blizzard spun by Melkor to keep him away, the frigid distance his Lord put there to freeze out the pain – he will get rid of it.
He will make this ice thaw.

Summary
“You do not sleep,” Irmo announces all of a sudden.“Why is that?”
“Because I’m crushed under the terrible weight of my past misdeeds, of course,” Melkor replies, trying very hard to stop his eyes from rolling.
“Does saying it flippantly make it easier to bear, I wonder?”
“Yes, actually…”
It certainly makes it easier to hide the fact he's still very proud of his past misdeeds. And future ones too, he's sure, as soon as he manages to slip from this atrociously harmonious attempt at a paradise…
When the three ages of Melkor’s captivity pass, the dark Vala seeks to sow his Discord in the Blessed Realm, hoping it will aid his escape.
Meanwhile, Mairon desperately attempts to keep a kingdom without a King from crumbling and reign the chaos with some of his own order…Series

Songs Played by Ear by SpaaaceCarrots

Summary
Mairon really seems to know what he’s doing.
Contrary to Melkor, who doesn’t really have much of an idea as to what, exactly, he’s doing and is simply playing all this by ear.
Melkor tries to figure out his dubiously professional relationship with his lieutenant, fights for attention with a metallurgical ladle, and finds a new, wonderful way in which to offend God.
