It is the last few good years of Mirkwood, set in between the time of the Hobbit and the upcoming War of the Ring. Little do the denizens of the north realize that Sauron has set his sights on reclaiming the fortress of Dol Guldor. To that end he has sent 3 of the dreaded Nazgul to carry out his will. However new faces have been seen in the region of southern Mirkwood. Attending a grand meeting of Woodmen in 2947 an unexpected representative from Gondor has arrived, signaling the Steward's interest in the growing power of men within the region. Accompanying him is an exiled Rider of Rohan, a Mirkwood Elf Warden representing king Thranduil's interest, and a wayward elf hunter of the woods. They would soon meet a lone hobbit accompanying the wizard Mithrandir and become embroiled within the fate of the region. Is it possible to change the fate of the darkening of Mirkwood? Or will all fall to the inevitable shadow? (This is something of a fanfiction dramatization of an rpg game I run, of Cubicle7's the One Ring's "The Darkening of Mirkwood" adventure. Due to the rather epic 30 year scope, heavy Tolkien influence, and general unknown nature of what exactly happens to the Mirkwood between the Hobbit and the War of the Ring other than that it does not go well for the free peoples. I have decided to do some micro writing of my player's adventures within the region. These will be revised and written in short bursts to maintain my own interest and be kept for general notes on where a narrative might be going and such. Characterization will be lacking at first as I get a feel for my player's characters. At the very least it will help to improve my writing and storytelling skills.) In addition to this: because this is an ongoing story with ongoing sessions at roughly 1 year per session. I will consider comments that suggest potential paths for the story to take, as a GM any that intrigue me has the potential to be worked in while it is still ongoing.

The Dunedain march into Rhovanion. The wood-elves offer their swords. Somewhere in between, a a ranger remembers that there are more ways than one to rekindle hope.

This is an original fanfiction based on The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies movie as well as some parts of the book. I only own the Easterners, the Men and Women of Khan as well as my protagonist, Queen Melantha and her daughter, Ziraella. Generally, every character that's supposedly from the Eastern Regions of Middle Earth. The rest of the people mentioned belong to the works of JRR. Tolkien. This is going to be my first published story and I do hope you judge me leniently. P. S. All the pictures and potential videos I am going to use do not belong to me, credit goes to the rightful owners. Also, I might change some small details of the story so if you feel confused as to the plot points just go back a chapter or two and check. Thanks for reading this abnormally long and slow burn story. I also know that when I begin a story it can get really boring so I do appreciate that you spare some time to read it. Feel free to comment your thoughts below! With Respect, Branwenn
