Summary
Sometimes Men (and Elves) experience difficult circumstances.
Friends or partners sail West (or decide not to)... a beloved pet runs away... a young mortal begins to feel his mortality... or a new mother struggles after the first birth of her child... the list goes on.
It’s long been known that Elrond of Riverdell is the best healer in the known world.
Men have made various superstitions about the elves, but one tradition holds that being in Elrond’s presence-and especially connecting with him through words or a handshake or a hug-can sometimes heal, but always helps at least a little bit...

Summary
A side-bar story that takes place after the events in my work entitled Full Circle. Elrond, Elu, Celebrían, and their mortal house-guest eat edibles.
This is also a gift to a few people whose writing has inspired me! I hope you enjoy.
CW: Significant and frequent cannabis-talk ;). That's the reason for the 'Mature' rating.

Summary
This is the sequel to Half-Life. Things will make more sense if you read that first, but it's possible to enjoy this without first reading it.
The main character takes up Thingol's invitation to meet some friends of his outside of Borgarnes, Iceland. The result is a humorous and heartfelt visit to a house of elves related by common experiences.

Summary
Erestor finds himself thrust into adventure when Elrond requests his company escorting Arwen to Minas Tirith after the War of the Ring is won. All too aware of the chronic illness that has bound his friend to Rivendell for the past several centuries, Glorfindel has some concerns. Erestor, aware of the risks, is going anyway.

Summary
"But I believed that however thoroughly violence mars the map, there remained small territories it could not occupy, like the miller's daughter in Sirion who hid seventeen children in her cellar, or the Fëanorian soldier who looked inside and told his commanding officer that it housed only bags of flour. Even when massacres were framed as requirements, there persisted those minor refusals, those unrecorded divergences from inevitability."
OR
"My great-aunt Batshiba used to read me a story about an ancient elf who had a tail," Bilbo offered Fëanor placidly, before giving him a piercing look. "Was that you?"

Re-embodied into relative insignificance in Fourth Age Valinor, Fëanor, former High King of the Noldor and current lord of Formenos, is uncharacteristically obliging to a request for a tell-all interview with the editor in chief of Hello Valar Tirion's latest and hottest weekly magazine, well-known for its incisive interviews and its feel-good serial about a Haradrim soldier in the Shire. Unfortunately, said editor in chief happens to be Bilbo Baggins.Series

Summary
Elros recalls the journey from Sirion to Ossiriand and the early days with Maedhros and Maglor. He and Elrond struggle to cope, yet there are new discoveries and small joys still to be found.
The year I turned six I lost my first tooth. The very next day a particularly vicious turtle bit Elrond’s toe and refused to let go no matter how loudly he screamed or how fearsomely I scowled with my newly gapped grin. Mother’s casual remarks regarding twin and peredhel growth turned into anxious debates with the remaining Doriathrim around that time, as the differences between my brother and I began to assert themselves. No one knew quite what to expect of us. Elrond showed no signs of loosing any of his teeth, and the few souls brave enough to bring up Eluréd and Elurín swore neither outstripped the other for height, as I began to do with my twin. It was, therefore, also the year that I first learned of my uncles, frozen in time only two years older than I, and my home burned at the same hands that had torched theirs.
