Tolkien quote of the day:

It later appears that there had been a 'hallow' on Mindolluin, only approachable by the King, where he had anciently offered thanks and praise on behalf of his people; but it had been forgotten. It was re-entered by Aragorn, and there he found a sapling of the White Tree, and replanted it in the Court of the Fountain. It is to be presumed that with the reemergence of the lineal priest kings (of whom Lúthien the Blessed Elf-maiden was a foremother) the worship of God would be renewed, and His Name (or title) be again more often heard. But there would be no temple of the True God while Númenórean influence lasted.

bullet Fragments of a love story by Nesta Last Updated: 3/22/2009
Fans have endowed Faramir with lots of imaginary families, and this is mine. There's Elboron of course, and then a daughter called Fíriel - the heroine of this story - and then Túrin, who is an oddball. 'Fragments' because the story isn't really complete - but that's just how it turned out.

bullet What's in a Name? by Lissas Elves Last Updated: 3/21/2009
A bit of light reading on a grey day... The following are not chapters of a story, but independent (and slightly irreverent) ficlets about the meaning of certain Noldorin names, as explained by Darth Fingon in his 'Linguistic Foolery' on SWG. The first: a meeting - inspired by one of Oshun's icons. The second: an interesting phenomenon - inspired by Rhapsody the Bard. The third (now added): a bored teenager gets himself into trouble. Thanks to Calenlass Greenleaf for betaing!

Written for the B2MeM Prompt 17: "breaking stereotypes". 22-year-old Aragorn learns that the Dunedain are far more than just the grim and stern lords he came to know when they visited Imladris, and that his foster-brothers hadn't told him everything about themselves either.

bullet Inspiration by Antane Last Updated: 3/14/2009
From the Silmarillion Writers Guild challenge which I stumbled upon when looking at MEFA stories. "Your characters inspire you - what inspires them?" No slash as always. Just about everyone is going to appear. The chapter titles will generally reflect first the person giving the inspiration and then the person receiving it so some of the chapter titles may be the same and in some cases the people will be both giving and receiving inspiration (ie. coming chapters of Frodo and Sam).

bullet How Do You Solve A Problem Like Asfaloth? by Kara's Aunty Last Updated: 3/13/2009
A song composed by Bill the Pony in honour of the 'prissy elf horse'. Sequel, of sorts to 'A Pony's Tale'. Knowledge of the entire replicas breitling melody from the original Sound Of Music song may be beneficial. Seriously AU!

bullet With Friends Like These by Jay of Lasgalen Last Updated: 3/7/2009
The story is a series of misadventures chronicling the early, 'teenage' years of Elladan, Elrohir and Legolas. Action, humour and angst.

This series starts in TA 147. Elladan and Elrohir are seventeen, Legolas is twelve. I have made one very small departure from canon, and moved Arwen’s birth forward by 100 years. This was necessary so the four can grow up together in the course of the story.

bullet A Malady In Meduseld by Agape4Gondor Last Updated: 3/2/2009
Why did it take Boromir so long to reach the Elven stronghold of Imladris? Perhaps there were other things working against the Man of Gondor. Two weeks in July 3018 in Edoras. (Begun with a note from Boromir to Denethor in another tale; the Muse decided it must be told.) COMPLETE
