Hello! I am StarSpray; I can be found under the same username on AO3 and Tumblr and Dreamwidth. I like crying about Elves and giggling about Hobbits.

Thus Spoke the Seer by StarSpray
It came in fragments, glimpses, shades of grey. There was a wide land under a growing shadow as darkness rose like a wave—like the wave that had crushed Númenor, that she dreamed of so often—like great dark wings of some fell creature, like the darkness was a thing in itself and not merely the absence of light.

Step Into Starlight by StarSpray
The door out of which Elves stepped into new life was a small one. It opened into a glade of grass and ferns and fragrant flowers. It swung open on silent hinges one quiet evening, when the sky in the west was purple and the sky in the east night-dark, and the stars burned bright overhead. A cricket hid in the grass and chirped. An owl swooped overhead on silent wings.

Through Cold Mist to Clear Sun by StarSpray
Then, all of a sudden, it began to rain—a gentle but steady rain, cool but not cold, that washed away the mists and dripped like gentle tears down their faces. Another voice wound through the hills and barrows around them, wordless, but young and ancient as spring, and warm, and welcoming.

It was a beautiful day, cloudless, the sun shining brightly on the sea and making the wave tips glitter like diamonds.
