Tolkien Meta Week Starts December 8!
Join us December 8-14, here and on Tumblr, as we share our thoughts, musings, rants, and headcanons about all aspects of Tolkien's world.
Lulled to sleep by Luthien's spell, Carcharoth dreams.
The Great Wolf of Angband leaps, and Thingol thinks of family.
The massive wolf Carcharoth draws on a rich literary history of symbolic and mythic significance of wolves.
Tells the story of the rise and fall of the two dark lords, from the collapse of the fortress in Tol-in-Gaurhoth, to the collapse of Barad-dûr, and what came next. Mainly told from Melkor and Sauron's perspective. Continuation of my other fic: "The Burnt God", though it may be read separately. Occasional slash (mainly Melkor x Sauron)
An anthology of ficlets, mostly in multiples of 100 words, here all together for the first time. (Forbidden Fruit makes its first appearance at a public archive) Open-ended.
A take on the famous hunt of the wolf, written as a response to the "Breaking-Type" challenge at OSA. It would have been a nice contribution to the challenge "All Good Beasts"... if there had been anyone considering Carcharoth good ;)
