Also known as:  Encaitariel’s Guide to Nargothrond and Its Denizens

This is a collection of the bits that I have collected (and continue to collect) about my Nargothrond and those Elves who inhabit her: some are character sketches, some (unposted) responses to challenge prompts I have seen here or there, and some are just bits of scene to flesh out relationships. Some will never been seen outside of these chapters, but others may eventually find a place and context within a larger work.

As always, I thank you ahead of time for taking the time and attention to read.

Galadriel, Finrod and estel.

Orodreth and the crown of Nargothrond.

Is home a resting place, or a starting point? Gildor, Lindan, and the decisions resulting from the War of Wrath.

Two young, orphaned Noldor meet the sons of Finarfin; and Finrod has cause to re-appreciate his foster-son. Takes place in FA 20 at the Mereth Aderthad.

A weary return from an arduous journey, and a conversation with a young ellon, makes Gildor realized that heroes are perhaps a matter of perspective.

While the title is Anlgo-Saxon, this is a character study of Finrod Felagund, "the far-wandering king" of Nargothrond; written from... an unusual perspective.

A character study in prose form of Finduilas, Lady of Nargothrond.

In Lindon, in the middle of the Second Age, Gildor Inglorion and his oldest friend both give and receive some unexpected news.
