Brethren by Ecthelion of the fountain |
Last Updated: 5/29/2025 |
| “You shall lead, and I will follow.”—But neither knew what lay ahead.
A tale of Théodred and Éomer, brothers in all but name.
Based on Tolkien’s writings, not the film trilogy. Canon compliant; Light-hearted—mostly light-hearted anyway; Not a healing story because there was never any strife to begin with. |

And Where Are the Children? by Larner |
Last Updated: 5/25/2025 |
| It is said that the Big Men would drag off people who stood up to Lotho's growing list of rules and their own authority to the Lockholes, in which they'd languish until the return of the Travellers. But what happened to the children of Lodo Teasel after their father was dragged away to Mithel Delving and their farm was fired?
A mystery.

Till Death Reunites Us by Ecthelion of the fountain |
Last Updated: 5/5/2025 |
Théodred had never thought he would die thus. Nor had he expected to meet another—after death.
Humour; A non-traditional ghost story; Canon compliant so long as one ignores cause of death and ghosts; Fix-It—But I'm not going to change any book-canon for it; More urban legends about Elvish lineage; And more urban legends about what wizards can do.
