    Summary

    Thranduil never forgave Elrond for Oropher's death at the Last Alliance, and a thousand years of diplomacy have failed to repair the rift between Rivendell and the Greenwood.
    For his final, desperate attempt to seal the breach, Celeborn brings an unlikely ambassador: Arwen Undómiel.
    Tauriel doesn't care for this foreign lady. Legolas begs to differ, and Arwen ... Arwen just wants an Adventure.

    Summary

    Even before the last arrests have been made, it is confirmed that the Commissaire d'Arnouville was shot dead on the Rue Montmartre whilst trying to negotiate. The news about the Inspector percolates more slowly through the Préfecture de Police, at the discretion of Monsieur Gisquet.

    The Inspector’s final missive was worrisome; there is a nod to expect the worst; when a cry goes up from the laundry-boats at the Pont-Neuf, no-one is entirely surprised.

    The Commissaire is publicly mourned, as befits a fallen hero. The Inspector is privately but sincerely regretted, disproving one of his own conjectures: he is missed.

    Summary

    The year is 1961 and Cosette Fauchelevent is on a mission to find her missing father, Jean Valjean. A series of mysterious deaths that may be linked to his disappearance lead her to team up with Inspector Javert, a detective who seems oddly determined to locate Valjean himself. Death itself is lurking around every corner, and if Cosette wants to avoid coming under suspicion herself, she's going to have to face a few of her own demons.
    --
    This is more or less a crossover between Les Miserables and Ray Bradbury's "Death Is A Lonely Business," with a few things changed and a few surprises along the way. If you've ever wanted to read a pseudo-noir tragicomedy where Cosette and Javert are buddy cops, well, here you go.

    Summary

    “I know you well enough.” Javert’s voice was an acerbic rasp. “That knife suits you better."
    “Hush. Be still.”
    Valjean's rough fingers were under his chin now, somehow avoiding the rope that sank its teeth deeper into him with every motion, and tilting his head upwards with a surprisingly gentle grip.

    There is always bitterness and spite when Valjean and Javert clash. Sometimes, to Javert's dismay, there is also kindness.

    Summary

    On the day of the New Year, it is told that Thranduil and Celeborn met in the forest where they rename Mirkwood as Eryn Lasgalen, The Wood of the Greenleaves. Thranduil gave the southern part of his realm to Celeborn, and kept the northern part as far as the mountains for himself and his people. The woodlands in between were given to the Beornings and Woodmen. But they must have had a lot more to talk about than that.

    This is Thranduil's tale of the War of the Ring. Whilst he fights Sauron's army in his own lands, he is haunted by dreams of his sons; his youngest in far away Gondor, and his eldest, Laersul, in the west to hold agains the goblins of the Hithaeglir and Thranduil himself leads the vanguard of the battle. His middle child, Thalos, he has left to guard the stronghold. In case all fails.

    Summary

    A mystery has come to the Greenwood: something—or someone—is slaying the great spiders with mad abandon. Thranduil is not sorry to see the creatures slain, but he must learn what force is responsible and keep it in check. For the spiders are vengeful, and the safety of his people comes first.

    What Thranduil does not expect is that the identity of the killer will not only alter the very future of the Greenwood, but his own life, and that of his young son.

    Summary

    Part 2 of What It Means to be a King:
    Part 2 is divided into 3 sections: Lindon, Greenwood, and Eregion. Each section is connected but can be read separately. Once the story is complete and I am up to it, I may post Section 4: The Last Alliance of Elves and Men

    Section 1: Lindon (Chapter 1-21) In the cold cave of Forochel, Sauron escapes his prison with plans for Gil-galad, Thranduil and Elrond.

    Section 2: Greenwood (Chapters 22-64) Thranduil returns to his father and tries to fit into his new home, unaware that Sauron never forgets nor forgives.

    Section 3: Eregion will be posted separately as Part 3 of this series. Sauron approaches Celebrimbor and his guild of craftsmen. And Glorfindel arrives at Middle-earth.

    History calls them as the northern kings, and writes elegies on their tombs: the generals who survived six months under siege in a crumbling city, and the kings who rebuilt their countries stone by stone.

    Thorin son of Thráin and Thranduil Oropherion remember their alliance slightly differently.
