Summary
Elrond and Celebrían are finally reunited in Valinor, but they are still haunted by their past, and by the awareness that they had lost Arwen forever. In an attempt to take control of her life again, Celebrían makes Elrond a proposal.
And so, the bliss of their long-awaited encounter had soon faded into a monotonous, quiet coexistence, where they tried to give sense to their shared mourning. Of their daughter, first and foremost, but also of what had once forced her to flee from the shores of the Middle-earth, leaving behind all the ones she loved. For even after all those long centuries, for all the skills of the Valar and the soothing, lulling peace of Aman, a cruel seed of illness still laid deep within her, a clump of ice between her ribs, that never fully went away, forgotten in her happiest moments, but still lying under, ready to resurface.

Summary
"Lullabies do not make kinslayers. This he knows. And yet, it never stops the worry from curdling in his chest, the only constant of all the cradles he has sung beside. For the tune endures after all, and nothing empty can truly endure: every vacant hroä holds a fragment of the fëa that once forsook it. Can a song be washed of meaning? Is tenderness immune to ideology? Groping about blindly in the dark of their dreams, Elrond had always worried that he was not watering the crops for his children to harvest, but salting the earth before the seeds could be planted."
___________________________
At a parade celebrating the the founding of Imladris, Elrond spots an unforgettable face in the crowd, a face he’s not seen for millennia. To his delight and apprehension, it is indeed Maglor Fëanorian, who brings with him two things. First, a suspiciously tame monkey he insists isn’t a metaphor. Second, the groundshaking admission that Elwing and Eärendil’s sons were not named Elrond and Elros.Or, a love letter to Maglor, Elwing, and Elrond.

Summary
"He looks so alive, telling me the story of those living twins. Yes, I know. Sam-dad has always said, to be immortal is to outlive memory. But what is it, to watch one’s lineage dissolve before your eyes? Once, Lord Celeborn could summon name after name from history, like Lady Arwen could name stars in the sky. And now I watch them flicker away from him into scattered fragments of light, displaced from their constellations."
_________
Samwise Gamgee comes across Celeborn of Lothlorien on a lonely Lindon beach, the two discuss their daughters, and a decision to sail together is made... but not before they stay a while with Sam's heavily pregnant daughter Elanor Gardner, to whom Celeborn tells all the stories he has left.A short and bittersweet story about fatherhood, memory, and a slightly different take on elven fading.

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 revolutionary 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.
