Celeborn and Galadriel: a conversation about the present that resonates with the past
Those ancient, magical thrushes of Dale--they could have had a long history.
First Age: Caranthir, son of Feanor, Celegorm, son of Feanor;
Third Age: Bard the Bowman
...and so also could the ravens of Erebor!
Following on from the previous drabble.
First Age: Caranthir, Son of Feanor.
Third Age: Dain Ironfoot
Arwen is like Luthien, we know.
Not only in Aragorn's eyes, but also in the eyes of those who have actually seen Luthien.
Arwen lays a ghost--no, not exactly a ghost...
The Eagles are coming!
Their own point of view on events, from the First Age to the end of the War of the Ring...
A slightly uncomfortable moment in the courtship of Celeborn and Galadriel.
