Once Upon a Time on Another Peak

Summary:

What if Adar had something better than wine?

[Creation for the Adariel Secret Santa 2024]

Notes:

Hi there Twisted Mirror! Merry Christmas!

I hope you like this little piece, it's a loosey goosey Rapunzel/Tangled AU for your Fairytale request ❤️

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

Once upon a time on a dark and nameless peak,
He offered me wine, red as a blood moon.
He offered me wine, and on that dark and nameless peak, I–
Stopped. Waited. Hoped.

Once upon a time on a dark and nameless peak,
His wine was spilled, forgotten.
And on that dark and nameless peak I saw her for the first time.
My light.

Notes:

It's not a poem, it's more like a funny way to explain this idea I hope.

Here, instead of Mairon's wine, Adar saw Galadriel's light, a beacon of hope on a dark peak. She is his shiny dame. In a way, the prince rescuing Rapunzel out of her tower. And I mean— for almost an age he was there alone, so his hair makes time justice here.

I hope you liked it! ❤️ I tried a new art style for you, a little more messy, but that I think would work out better for something that's like a memory from Adar's POV.... Maybe someday I'll write something long in this idea too, loved the fairytale theme, there's so much to work within it 🙏🏼
