    Summary

    Post-TLJ, the Force bond won't close. Rey and Kylo Ren remain connected across the galaxy, and despite everything, they can't stop talking to each other. Rey tells herself she's gathering intelligence for the Resistance, that she can keep hating him even while they argue about philosophy and war and impossible choices.

    Then Nar Shaddaa happens, and Rey learns exactly how far the Supreme Leader will go to get her back.

    Some decisions dirty your hands. Some choices have no right answers. And some monsters will burn the galaxy down before they let you die.

    A canon divergence story exploring moral complexity, the cost of war, and what happens when enemies fall in love across battle lines.

    Summary

    Then she let her eyes drift to Halbrand, with his longer, auburn hair and scruffy jaw, and the same combination from earlier: jeans and a t-shirt. He looked like he always did, slightly unkempt compared to her polished husband. And yet, she couldn’t seem to stop herself from staring as he talked with his broad hands, smiling and gesturing with his beer bottle to some comment of Celeborn's. Before she could stifle and strangle the thought, it was impossible not to wonder what it would feel like to be with him.

     

    A dystopian world of medications, propaganda, and politicians conspire to alter the landscape of alpha, beta, and omega dynamics. Best friends Galadriel and Halbrand are caught in the middle but can't seem to resist the biology that demands they be together. And when it comes down to it, neither of them really wants to.

    Summary

    Galadriel was just weeks away from her wedding when she received news from Valinor: Mairon, the Maiar once known as Sauron, who now served her kin, was dying.

    No one could understand how he contracted the illness, or how to help him, which prompted her to return home to see her friend and, unfortunately, discover the destructive power of a broken heart.

    Summary

    When Galadriel wakes anew at the beginning of her life, there are seemingly few paths forwards except to repeat her life once lived. But when Yavanna informs her that this is not so, oaths are sworn - and Galadriel shall keep them, if it means a life and family worth living for.


    A Galadriel-centric rendition of Silmarillion-compliant history, using scenes and concepts from the Rings of Power series.

    Summary

    He stares at her, wondering if she is trying to torment him on purpose. She looks so beautiful and earnest and it’s these moments that tug painfully and dangerously at his heart. She makes him so angry with her ambition one moment and the next he can’t tear his eyes from her, an arrogant storm of silk and sharp steel defeating five skilled fighters as if they are children fighting with sticks.

    “You are truly set on not leaving me be, Elf.”

    Summary

    After the first battle with Adar's forces, Eregion becomes a place of unrest, where elves try to create a weapon that can save Middle-earth. Galadriel brings the wounded Halbrand, who helps Celebrimbor control the mithril. When she discovers that Halbrand cannot be the king of the South, she becomes entangled in his dangerous game of appearances. She needs a symbol to save Middle-earth from darkness. He must decide whether he wants to be a king, a blacksmith, or perhaps someone much darker. In the shadow of the coming war, each of their meeting becomes an arena of passion, manipulation and ever deeper doubts. What will happen when Galadriel, torn between duty and her heart, allows herself to believe for the first time that one lie can save Middle-earth?

    This is a story about what might have happened if, at the end of the first season, Sauron had not revealed his true identity to Galadriel.

    Summary

    "Take the prisoner back to her cell."

    He turned back to Galadriel.

    "You may feel differently next week, little elf. Or perhaps the week after that. Or the one after that. It makes no difference to me. I have the time.

     

    And you... are going nowhere".

    Or:

    Captured by Sauron, Galadriel awakens in the heart of his dark fortress, trapped in a deadly game of power, temptation, and survival.

    Galadriel must resist his darkness—or be consumed by it.

    Summary

    Time has no meaning in the tower. Only the same light through pale curtains, the same shadow pressing down on her, trying to make her forget her name. But she does not scream. She does not yield.

    Until someone comes. A darker thing than her captor, carved from fire and ruin who sees not a prisoner, but a queen in chains. And for the first time in a hundred years, she chooses to speak.

    Summary

    The loose sleeves of her nightdress bared her wrists, wherein her pulse raced. She was not unconscious of how Sauron – in the physical form of a Man – was drawn to these slight glimpses of her pale, bare skin. Her hands and wrists, feet and ankles. The line of her neck beneath her golden waterfall of hair. She had in nothing but the body she’d been born with the power to distract him, this great, dark being who was responsible for the slaying of thousands. Sauron couldn’t keep his eyes from straying here and there. There was a pit low in her belly that yawned and yearned at this knowledge, and for a moment, Galadriel felt her heart beat faster. She wondered if his senses were keen enough to notice.

    The war against Morgoth is beginning to go poorly for the Elves, so Galadriel sets out to seduce their enemy's most powerful general. It turns out that Sauron is very easy to seduce.
