Summary
From the Music of the Ainur to Arda Healed, this epic follows Uinen, Lady of the Waters, as she weaves salt and memory into the world's waters. Her love for the storm-lord Ossë—a Maia torn between Ulmo's service and Melkor's shadow—shapes Númenor's fate. Through the Downfall, the voyages of Elendil and Legolas, and the slow healing of Arda's wounds, Uinen teaches the seas to remember their true nature. The waters hold the First Tears, the blood of Elves at Alqualondë, the salt scattered on Númenor's altars, and the grief of a sundered husband bound to the abyss. As the Music fulfills, even the deepest trench remembers the light. A meticulous exploration of Tolkien's Maiar, honoring the Valaquenta and Akallabêth. When the world is made anew, the sea's memory endures.

Summary
Many perished in the battle of the five armies but one stood above all else. One of the company of Thorin Oakenshield had fallen, one that had been marked a traitor only to be proven the strongest and bravest of them all. Stricken with grief and pain, Thorin disregards the potential backlash for laying a non-dwarf to rest in Erebor and gives Bilbo an honorable dwarven funeral.
However, when horror struck, it rattled the very stone around them. Everyone thinks that it is the result of divine retribution...but Mahal truly does love his wife and her beloved children.

Summary
The voices were quieting down, and I barely dared to breathe. Though I only caught a glimpse of the scenery, there were definitely trees. I did not fall asleep in a forest. Nor is there greenery painted anywhere on my walls?
Any air I tried to keep in my lungs was being pushed out by the weight of the reality dawning upon me.I’m in fucking middle-earth. Arda. The land of Tolkien.
Or,
Fix-it, Middle-Earth style and your usual modern girl in middle-earth
Because nobody deserved to die in this story.(Title has been changed from 'There, Again.' to 'This Wandering Day')

Summary
I will shade the eyes so that the secrets may be safe. I will light a spark in the darkness so that the fire may burn and give life to the world. Chaos and harmony. Destruction and birth. Let this be the cycle and be the instruments of it. As they say, "The work, the great work is now completed,
Machine is running, the creator rests." Use the world, use the space I have given you. Use it, my sons, and make it interesting, you two who are capable of it! Hear my will! "I want struggle and fight against the old
That generates new power and new world" -

Summary
He remembered their days in Almaren, bathed in innocence and light. Melkor would not have tolerated him speaking of them, except with sarcasm, so he had pretended to have forgotten. The name of Manwë’s herald had never been spoken, never written, never thought, since Mairon had chosen his master.
But his master had been defeated. And as he approached the camp raised by the host of the Valar, he felt, in the midst of his immense weariness, a faint stir of regret.

Summary
Galadriel Noldor moves back to Lindon, Texas after 10 years in Doriath, Virginia, where her marriage to Celeborn Wise fell apart. She gets a job at The Raft as a barista and meets a bartender called Halbrand Maia, who's on the run from his own demons back in Australia.
Starting over is never easy, but if Galadriel and Halbrand can open their hearts, they just might find exactly what they've always been looking for.

Summary
“You are going to send me back down there right now,” the figure snarled. “I don’t care how many rules it breaks; you are going to send me back.”
“You did choose right,” the second voice mused. “How very curious.”
There was a deep sigh, or rather the sensation of one. It wasn’t really clear where or how it started, but there must have been one for everyone present to understand the reality of something doing the sighing. And when that fourth not-voice spoke, it was entirely directed at the figure dripping blood onto the proverbial (and very literal) carpet.
There is much I wish to discuss with you, my champion.
The figure scowled. Swiping a hand over his face to remove the worst of the blood, he straightened up.
“And I have a fair bit to discuss with you, I’d wager,” Ori spat. “Starting with why you’ve been talking to me for the last five months.”Or: how Aragorn became king, featuring the Valar and countless acts of great stupidity.
(This is a sequel. The previous works total around 292k and this figure will double with this work.)

Summary
Fíli and Kíli have always known they would be together for the rest of their lives. Little did they know how short those lives would be or that they would both yearn for the love of a hobbit by the end of them. When they are given a second chance by the Valar, with a set of requirements, they set out to complete the quest again. Maybe this time, they can avoid at least some of the danger that plagued their original journey. Or just spend more time teasing their hobbit. That would be good too.
(Time travel fix-it in which Fíli and Kíli are besotted with Bilbo, nothing goes to plan, and Bilbo will forever be confused by the minds of dwarves.)

Summary
“Explained that Sauron deceived everyone, you mean? That he went to Aulë pretending to be a friend and claimed Melkor was lying and meant to betray Fëanaro? That Aulë believed him and told Fëanaro? Who then took the Silmarils that he'd made with Melkor's help and denied that they'd ever worked together? You want me to assure you that Irmo told Fëanaro all that?”
It was a succinct appraisal of the facts. Facts that had only come to light recently. “Yeah, all that.” But there was more. “And that Melkor was devastated by Fëanaro's apparent betrayal and came to hate him for it?”This is the continuation of the story begun in The Only Art of Heaven. I've tried to make it stand alone, but you may want to read the Only Art of Heaven first in case I haven't been entirely successful in my efforts!

Summary
As was the case with most things these days, Halbrand smelled the intruder before he caught sight of her. Roused from the depths of a much needed post meal nap, it took him a moment to shake off the last vestiges of sleep that clung like stalactites to his limbs, every grumble and groan out of his mouth cursing the fact that the forest he had now spent years cultivating into an apparent state of desolation had proved no match for a highly determined, golden haired village girl.

Summary
Then she let her eyes drift to Halbrand, with his longer, auburn hair and scruffy jaw, and the same combination from earlier: jeans and a t-shirt. He looked like he always did, slightly unkempt compared to her polished husband. And yet, she couldn’t seem to stop herself from staring as he talked with his broad hands, smiling and gesturing with his beer bottle to some comment of Celeborn's. Before she could stifle and strangle the thought, it was impossible not to wonder what it would feel like to be with him.
A dystopian world of medications, propaganda, and politicians conspire to alter the landscape of alpha, beta, and omega dynamics. Best friends Galadriel and Halbrand are caught in the middle but can't seem to resist the biology that demands they be together. And when it comes down to it, neither of them really wants to.

Summary
This is my last story for this challenge that I set for myself. Today was the hardest to get out because I had very little motivation due to exhaustion and chores that needed to be done in RL. That said this was a fun one to write even if it is a short one. I hope that you enjoy it. In my head cannon they still have to deal with the Ring in 70 years, but they will be ready for it to happen.
First chapter is the roll results, second chapter is the story

Summary
Rosuanne “Ro” MacZorya never expected her twentieth birthday to lead her into Middle-earth—one year before Gandalf ever came knocking on Bilbo Baggins’ round green door. The Shire welcomes her with orchard paths, flour-dusted kitchens, and tea parties that feel almost like home.
But Ro carries a secret: she comes from the far future, from a world where magic has long since faded and Middle-earth survives only as a half-forgotten legend. Now, in a land still alive with song and shadow, the past begins to stir, voices whisper her name, and even the gentlest bird’s song may carry the weight of destiny.
Ro may have found a home in the Shire, but fate has other plans—and some stories refuse to stay forgotten.

Summary
This is a take on of Melkor's and Mairon's epic but twisted love story and needless to say, it involves explicit scenes. We follow them from their first meeting and through the time in Utumno, where Mairon's innocence is taken in so many ways. Read the tags for all our sakes!
