A troop of Rivendell warriors do come across a very unusual elf, he has black skin and is dying from severe wounds. When Elrond tries to get to the bottom of the mystery the king of Mirkwood does intervene. Is this creature a servant of darkness or a poor soul who ought to get a second chance? And is his kind even capable of feeling something else than hatred and fear? And can the cold and haughty king really be moved to pity, or beyond that, by a stranger to whom the entire world is new and frightening, inhabited by those who ought to be his enemies?

After many years of solitude, one loses hope to ever see daylight, ever have hope again. Duathiell has been alone for as long as she can remember, and any hope of being free has long vanished. With each setting sun, each lost day, she draws away from the outside world, trapped by her father figure in the dark prison of her tower. But every day she sees that the sun rises once more, and if she can strain her eyes just far enough, she can see the world; the land of Middle-Earth, that stretches as far as she can see. One day, she says, one day she'll see it all, run in the trees and live in the forests, but she never thinks about who will be with her. She never thinks about who she will meet, fall in love with, and what great adventures they will go on together. It never even crosses her mind, and when it does, it will surely be a tale that will be passed down for generations of Elves for Ages to come, who'll all tell the tale of the unlikely hero, who in discovering herself, forged a path that will influence many to follow.

Prequel to The Edge of a Knife No lands are safe. Nothing is safe. The elves of Mirkwood struggle to keep their darkening lands shielded from peril. As Legolas, the youngest son of Thranduil sets out in hopes of aiding his older brother in driving back the consuming shadows. A simple, yet life changing twist. War secretly approaches. Darkness creeps up on all lands; slithering across slyly, whipping mercilessly at sweet tendrils of light and hope. A hidden force, one that has been carelessly overlooked, threatens to take more than just Legolas' life; but turn it into a living nightmare. The once lighthearted and gentle Prince must fight the overpowering darkness that forcefully claims his whole being. If he should fail, he will fade.

Eda is a flight-risk mercenary with a bad track record. Living on half-payments from uncompleted jobs, she hopes that her luck will change. And it does. When Eda meets Gandalf, he tells her that being reluctant to kill - valuing life - is not a weakness. And seeing Eda's true colors beneath her tough and careless facade, he hires her to protect his favorite Hobbit as Bilbo takes an unexpected holiday. But even that doesn't quite go according to plan... *cover art created by @elvenmystery.* **All credit goes to J.R.R. Tolkien for everything except the character(s) I created.** Rated PG-13 for action violence, intense battle sequences, and mild suggestive reference.

After the battle of Helm's Deep, our group returns to Edoras. When Sauroman drops the Palantir and Drizzt picks it up, will the darkness find a hold? Will his family help him push it away? Or will they push him in? Will the Nazgul catch him, or will he slip through their fingers once again?

Within hours, nothing is the same. Beliefs and dreams shattered. Hopes and wishes destroyed. Instead, the only option is to flee into the unknown. Exhausted and injured, Nola stumbles into the arms of the supposed enemy, of all people. Now she must decide: Does she stick to her escape plan or dare to trust? In addition, the riddle of the term Amdiriel must be solved. And the most important question: who is responsible for this nightmare?

"Some things that should not have been forgotten were lost." Eru Ilúvatar. The Creator. The Father of all within Eä. It was he who began it, the shaping of the universe and its inhabitants. He bore knowledge in all things; knowledge of things that were, things that are, and some things that have not yet come to pass. Alas, darkness crept into the hearts of his children, leaving in its wake a world corrupted by those who would seek to dominate all life. It was for this reason that he came to bear - The Children of Light, Vanyasén. The Enkarein. Peacekeepers and Protectors. A people birthed from the seed of Eru Ilúvatar to procure peace and long life amidst the vast realms of Middle Earth. What can be said for those who abandon their intendment, for a kingdom of myth that is on the brink of utter annihilation? Those who are seldom what they seem. Those who gave birth to a forgotten daughter, and those who have seen enough of war and yet are once again faced with but one choice... unite or fall. A tale of betrayal and deception. Of faith and fellowship. Of loss and love. Where one war has ended, another begins! #6 in fellowship (07.18.21) #7 in jrrtolkien (01.01.21) #8 in lotrfanfiction (04.03.23)
