When Eleneth is captured by Adar, the ruthless commander of the orcs in the Southlands, she expects her life to be forfeit. Instead, she's drawn into a dangerous alliance with an enemy whose motivations run deeper than she imagined. Tasked with healing the brutal orcs, Eleneth discovers Adar's true desire - to destroy Sauron, the Dark Lord who once corrupted him.

Torn between her loyalty to her people and her growing connection to Adar, Eleneth faces impossible choices. The bond between them deepens, yet shadows of mistrust remain. With Sauron's return looming and both sides preparing for war, Eleneth must decide - Will she help Adar seek redemption and protect Middle-earth from the ultimate evil, or flee home to a fragile, temporary safety?

In this high-stakes tale of moral conflict, shifting allegiances, and forbidden attraction, Eleneth and Adar must confront the darkness within themselves, and each other, before it's too late.

Light and Shadows (Thranduil's story post BOTFA) by Cineva999
53 parts Complete Mature
The Elvenking is like a very strong, old tree, deeply rooted in the kingdom he pledged himself to protect. He also pledged himself to protect his heart from love, out of fear that it might weaken him, but that proved to be disastrous. Love... what daunting word rubbed in his face by that fearless redhead elleth during the battle in Dale. Is there any love left in him? Follows what happens with Thranduil and Tauriel after BOTFA, during the War of the Ring and further into the 4th Age. Mainly from Thranduil's POV and including canon events that are only briefly mentioned in the books. I try to respect the lore as much as I can. Apart from the romance, I wanted to explore Thranduil's character based on what we know about his life. Feedback and comments are much appreciated :) "His words were unforgiving again, hiding under the same cold tone he had for centuries, yet he could not believe them himself anymore. Tauriel was looking at him, her gaze seemingly piercing through his soul. His dream to restore Mirkwood to Greenwood and his thoughts of avenging his beloved wife were contradicting everything he said. He did not want to care yet every fibre of his being cared too much." "There was something else that Thranduil noticed in Celeborn's eyes: a combination of respect and admiration. 'You are strong, Thranduil. You are like one of the old Mirkwood trees, deeply rooted in the earth, that the centuries cannot wither. I always thought that, no matter what evil lies upon Arda, you will endure.'

Do We Let Them Stand Alone? by JenikaFoust
40 parts Ongoing Mature
Galadriel has seen more war in five years than most would experience in a lifetime. She and her brother, Finrod, commanded the Great War's most elite death squad: the Loriens. Together they completed untold thousands of missions, destroying some of the Enemy's most valuable strongholds and weapons. In the last crucial battle of the War, Finrod was killed by Sauron, an Enemy lieutenant of reputed cruelty on and off the battlefield. Morgoth was killed in the same battle, and the Loriens were sent home. Galadriel and her commandos were expected to re-assimilate with the civilian population. Galadriel has struggled to adapt for months; but with her brother gone and so many of the Enemy soldiers, including Sauron, at large, how can she put down the weapons that have kept her safe for so long? Halbrand finally makes his way north to take refuge in the great city of Lindon, where a chance encounter with a half-elf lord puts him directly into the path of Galadriel. He's done fighting. It's time to atone for his misdeeds. If his identity is exposed, can he make the person who matters most to him understand? The two journey to the Southlands, where an orc father is pursuing a secret of his own. What is Adar hunting? That's a lot of very dramatic questions for a single description. All that cinematic fluff aside, I hope you'll take a look at my original fiction piece, as it has cost me many brain cells and many hours of sleep. #2 in haladriel trying to get in the top 100 of the lordoftherings tag but I keep topping out really close to 100...one day...

Six months ago, the Battle of the Five Armies took everything from Tauriel. Her position as Captain of the Guard, the respect from her people, and her blonde companion to fight at her side. All gone because she helped a Dwarf. But six months later, Men from Dale wander into Mirkwood, claiming to be fleeing an imminent Orc invasion. With nothing to lose, Tauriel volunteers herself to scout out the threat. What she discovers is a danger far more real and personal to the elves than anyone could've predicted. Caught between duty and instinct, Tauriel takes matters into her own hands and plunges into an adventure that will change her forever. "Fantastic! A well-written story telling the tale of the couple who could've been.
