I would like to share my revelations of Tolkien's Universe in the form of narrative and emotional poems.
Emeldir in the Battle of Sudden Flame.
A collection of Silmfic written for SWG’s January 2017 ‘Taboo’ prompts. Some will be co-written with, or perhaps solely written by, my co-author and dear friend Emma, and those will be noted.
Barahir and Emeldir try to hold their ground against the encroaching darkness from the North. (Barahir/Emeldir)
Drabbles and short stories about the House of Bëor and their elves. Mostly light-hearted addendums to Hold Fast Ere Night Comes and other stories set in Dorthonion before the Dagor Bragollach.
Finrod, Reborn, goes to visit Amarie, but isn't expecting the reaction he receives.
A collection of Elleth's 2012 B2MeM Bingo fics. Individual summaries (and warnings, if necessary) are provided in the chapter notes.
A how-it-might-have-been tale based on the Chapter "Of Beren and Lúthien" in The Silmarillion and other writings which fans will recognize.
