Tolkien quote of the day:

'The river of this valley is under his power, and it will rise in anger when he has great need to bar the Ford. As soon as the captain of the Ringwraiths rode into the water the flood was released. If I may say so, I added a few touches of my own: you may not have noticed, but some of the waves took the form of great white horses with shining white riders; and there were many rolling and grinding boulders.'

bullet The Making of a Ringbearer III: Aweigh by Obelia medusa Last Updated: 8/30/2010
It’s 1405 and Frodo is alone in Bag End. Merry can’t control his temper and Samwise can’t bring himself to speak up. Pippin can’t pay attention and Frodo never did learn to accept help. But these four are becoming the sort of hobbits who will risk their lives for each other in the War of the Ring, which draws nearer every year.

bullet The Cusp of Victory by Kara's Aunty Last Updated: 8/30/2010
The Quest is minutes from completion. The West is moments from a hard-fought victory. Nothing can stop the inevitable now. Or can it? And can one devastated hobbit live with the consequences of his actions? A tale told in multiple drabbles. AU. MEFA 2010 Nominated. Rating upgraded due to violence and bloodshed.

bullet In Darkness Bound by Fiondil Last Updated: 8/30/2010
In the aftermath of the Darkening, three kings search for meaning in the midst of tragedy. One seeks absolution; another, vengeance, while the third merely endeavors to salvage what he can from the disaster and protect his people from future harm. All may find what they are looking for, though not necessarily in the way they expect, for, as always, the Valar have their own agenda. Many thanks go to my betas, Alassiel and Ellie.

Short whatnots and nonsense about Círdan, spanning from Cuiviénen to Forever.

bullet Interrupted Journeys: Steps along the way by elliska Last Updated: 8/22/2010
As we look back on the journey of our life, certain moments stand out as ones that defined the course of that journey. At the time, we rarely recognize their significance, but at the end of the journey they become clear. These are the incidents that defined the lives of Thranduil Oropherion and Legolas Thranduilion throughout the Third and Fourth Ages.

This is a place for a variety of short stories that are part of the Interrupted Journeys, but are too short to stand alone.
