archaic and content
Series compiled by Fernstrike
A note on series: over the time I’ve been writing, my perceptions of some of my favourite characters have changed since the first time I wrote them. While leaving all my stories up for posterity, only the stories catalogued within a series (like this one) should be considered part of Middle-earth-According-to-Fern. All other stories are standalones, and “AU” to my personal canon, if they can be referred to as such.
