There is no escape, not for me. I have tried so hard to forget but the memories keep coming back. I don't sleep anymore, if I close my eyes my mind floods with their screams. The screams of those I've hurt, because I murdered the ones they love. I can't keep running, I have no where to run. I can't hide, they will find me. There is no way out of the endless shadows. I am a slave to the darkness. And no matter how much I fight, I will never be free.

The Fourth Age of Middle Earth brought with it an era of peace and prosperity. Tasked with keeping the peace in the North, Gerithor longs for the adventures of his younger years while settling matters of court and training his children to do the same. But when a mysterious visitor arrives from the east with disturbing news, it is up to the Children of the North to save Middle Earth from a threat that could plunge the entire world into destruction.

This isn't your ordinary writing contest: for each round, there will be various topics that must be addressed by a short story. Sounds normal, right? It's not! Each prompt will be focused on a geographic location of Middle Earth, many of which receive little to no attention. So strap on your leather boots and shoulder your travel pack, because we're going on an adventure!! Title credit goes to @Silvan_Elleth, who wanted me to make a point of it being her idea.

Zimruphân is no lord. He is no Gondorian, he is no king. Harad is a harsh place for a weak soul. When scraping together coin as a mercenary, even sinking to a bandit when times are hard, life out on the sands can be an easy way to get killed. That is, if you lack the wits. And Zimruphân's seen his fair share of surprise. However, things will drastically change when a dangerous storm separates him from his mission and the partner he traveled with. Alone, he wanders, until crossing paths with another, beaten stray. While everything is in perspective, would it be a sin to shift his view on the land he inhabits? A Lord of the Rings oneshot for the Distant Lands Awards, taking place in Harad. -- I don't own JRR Tolkien's works (I know, how shocking) and ideas, or the places and backstories used. The picture used in the cover is not mine, and belongs to its respective owner. So yeah, safe to say I own nothing.

Just a collection of short stories that I felt like writing and one shots from my favorite fandoms. I will be taking requests for one shots! See more info inside.

Originally titled "An Oasis In Harad." The first installment of a series. Isolated in a desert oasis, on the outskirts of Far Harad, a warrior escaping the chaos of war, a traveler escaping conflict at home, and their loyal steeds, a horse and a war camel, are thrust together into a journey of epic proportions as Death passes through Harad. Who will survive? WARNING! Does have a graphic death scene. Don't read if you're sensitive to that sort of thing

YET THE SUN HAD NO MERCY // a story of Harad

My miscellaneous book is kind of a mess. So from now on, any one shots/short stories I write can be found here!

I wasn't always this way. I wasn't always a monster. I used to have a home, and a family. I was kind, good, filled with life. I never did anything wrong. So why did it happen? Why was everything that I loved taken away from me? Why was I stripped of my light? Why do bad things happen to good people? I have no answers, and I doubt that anyone does. My story is one of loss, betrayal, and pain. My story does not have a happy ending, and after everything I have done, I do not deserve one.
