    Summary

    "Maybe I’ll let you go home someday. But you must have something to remember me by."

    After Thangorodrim, but before Maedhros moves his brothers east, Maedhros’ wounds have almost healed. At least, that’s what Maglor thought.

    Summary

    Fingon stops in his tracks, watching as Maedhros presses his hands to his face as if trying to hold something in place. He pulls one hand away, curling his fist around what looks like a shard of plaster.

    Maedhros limps away from the trees, disappearing into the darkness, far away from the lights hemming the tree branches.

    Fingon kneels down and picks up the piece of plaster, still gleaming white under the light of Tillion.

    The plaster on Fingon’s palm is in the shape of a pair of sensuous, beautiful lips.
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    After Thangordrim Maedhros, seemingly unscarred and whole, avoids Fingon. Fingon decides to find out why, one piece of plaster at a time.

    Summary

    "Maedhros has nothing to say, less to give. He looks Elwing in the eye, stares right into the face of a catastrophe of his own making. There’s no forgiving or forgetting, but it is only the two of them on that island. Both their lives, collapsed into this yawning whole. Their very existence is now an exercise in the capacity for empathy and identification. On the island, there is only one thing that binds them: she threw herself into the sea, and he threw himself into the earth. The two of them had spat in the face of divinely-gifted eternity, and would have to learn their lesson before Valar and Eldar, flopping fish on a hot-dry-pan."
    _______

    Maedhros Fëanorian is re-embodied onto a desert island in Aman, inhabited solely by Elwing of Doriath, and separated from the mainland by a body of uncrossable water. This, it turns out, is the Valar's judgement - though neither Elwing nor Maedhros take very kindly to being judged.

    Summary

    “The Maedhros who stands before his son is not one thing but many. He is a struck-down statue. He is a fading demon. He is a sword in a nuclear war. He is historical debris. He is the sum of a nation’s ruin. He is the first sunset of the Empire’s apocalypse. He is Elrond’s beloved Baba, who would find him under every starless sky. Archives will dissect him. Historians will redeem him. Writers will swallow him whole.”

    In 1937, notorious Indian revolutionaries Maedhros Fëanorian and his brother Maglor, take in a British colonial officer's twin sons and raise them to adulthood. Decades later, Elrond Peredhel, trying to leave a family tragedy behind in England, returns to India during a time of political turbulence and finds that everything, from the national landscape to his firebrand father, the ineffable Comrade Maedhros, has changed. Chapter 19: Epilogue, Afterword and 'Alternate' Ending.

    Summary

    “Oh,” said Maitimo, standing statue-still, holding a just-filled basket of ripe blackberries.

    “Oh,” said Findekano, who was lying supine down on a patch of moss by the winding river, essentially naked and holding his own erection.

Please note that this is not the most up-to-date revision of this work; see the Silmarillion Writers' Guild for the most completed revision until I get the opportunity to update the chapters here after the HASA migration.

    Summary

    Fingolfin cannot be sure how his entanglement with his nephew began. Has Maedhros always looked at him differently? Were they both so lonely they sought comfort in each other's misery? Did the fey flame of Maedhros' eyes ensnare Fingolfin like a mere mindless hare? Or was it the understanding in them? Should he have been more forceful in pushing away Maedhros' lone wandering hand when it rested in a place it had no right to be for the first time? Should he have resisted summoning him to his chambers while the fortress slept? Should he have admonished him for licentiousness like a strict but hypocritical father?

    Maedhros fulfills Fingolfin's secret, shameful fantasy.

    Summary

    "No, stay," Ereinion mumbled when he felt his father sit up on the bed.

    He heard the familiar warm laughter and peeked out from under the covers.

    "What is it, yonya?" his father asked, smiling and laying back down. "I thought you were already fast asleep."

    Ereinion shook his head. "Tell me more stories," he asked, then added after a pause: "Tell me about my mother."

    For duets she was always his first choice; after so many years of singing together no one could match her as his partner. He knew her voice as well as his own, could feel her very breath in his own breast.

    But she did not sing anymore, after Angband.

    ...and Findekano had the worst thrill of his young life, and certainly the wickedest. His heart hammered like it was on the anvil and he trembled in Feanaro’s grip.

    Summary

    Pale and still, her eyes shut and her dark hair haloed around her head, her sister looks like one of their mother’s sculptures. The open gashes on her cheeks and her hands, covered with sticky dust, gain some quality of chipped marble, though traces of dragon-breath on her cheeks and the dirt clinging to her eyelashes give her a musty, half-finished look. Broken. Fallen. Half formed.

    Maedhril cannot help but feel Nerdanel’s touch on her now; cannot help but feel their mother’s judgement.

    What have you done, their mother asks, with a prize you had so stubbornly fought for?

    She has no answers.
