"Arrow!" said the bowman. "Black arrow! I have saved you to the last. You have never failed me and always I have recovered you. I had you from my father and he from of old. If ever you came from the forges of the true king under the Mountain, go now and speed well!".............The black arrow sped straight from the string, straight for the hollow by the left breast where the foreleg was flung wide. In it smote and vanished, barb, shaft and feather, so fierce was its flight. With a shriek that deafened men, felled trees and split stone, Smaug shot spouting into the air, turned over and crashed down from on high in ruin.

Broken Glass by Conquistadora
I suppose you could say this is something like my own edition of Unfinished Tales, full of story fragments and character studies that really don't go much of anywhere, but involved too much work and thought for me to just delete them and be done with it. Until now they've been simply gathering virtual dust in the depths of my computer files, but now I bring them out into the light of day in the hopes that someone might enjoy them.
