Amid the Powers and Chances of the World by Azalais (Azalaisdep)

Summary
"Men..should have a virtue to shape their lives, amid the powers and chances of the world, beyond the Music of the Ainur, which is as fate to all things else" (Quenta Silmarillion, Chapter 1). A mortal woman is brought to Rivendell for healing in the summer of 3018, and thus becomes entangled with both Men and Elves in the events of the War of the Ring. How will destiny and choice shape the lives of the two Kindreds?
This novel-length story travels from Rohan via Rivendell to Gondor and back again, twining itself in and out of the canon events of LoTR as it goes. Gap-filling, drama, humour, a dash of angst and - eventually - romance between the OFC protagonist and a canon character (so don't say you weren't warned!)
Rated General rather than Adult, but should be considered PG-13 for, in later chapters, some fairly explicit descriptions of the aftermath of battle and for some (non-graphic) sexual content.
Thanks to the kind offices of Altariel, e-book versions are now available; [links no longer active -- Archivist]

Summary
The time of the Elves is over. Darkness is spreading about the land. When Haldir, Marchwarden of Lothlórien, discovers a wandering company on the borders of the Golden Wood, little does he know what lies ahead, how his path is fated to interweave with that of Annalyn, a mortal whose spirit is as resilient as he is guarded. From wary strangers, to unlikely companions, friends, and more, theirs is a story of impossible love and loss during times of monumental change.

Summary
I put my stories about the sons of Feanor in a series to help with chronological order. These stories are tangled together when it comes to details and OCs I use, but can be read separately.
I will add stories as I translate them.- Words:

Summary
The impossible happened: a Silmaril has been stolen from Morgoth’s crown. Maedhros decides to reunite the People of Beleriand against the Enemy and attack him while he is still unprepared, which is by no means less impossible. Meanwhile, in the hidden city of Gondolin, Lord Glorfindel of the Golden Flower pursues the meaning of his recurring dreams – only to realize that he is not the only one to see them...
|| A novel-length canon gapfiller on the Union of Maedhros, the Nirnaeth Arnoediad and the downfall of the Sons of Feanor; plus my take on what could have been going on in Gondolin between the Bragollach and the Nirnaeth. ||

Summary
This is the tale of Eol and Aredhel from a different perspective. Some may like it and others not so much. As the author I can only hope that many shall read it. I hope you enjoy the story.
