'Ye have spilled the blood of your kindred unrighteously and have stained the land of Aman. For blood ye shall render blood, and beyond Aman ye shall dwell in Death's shadow. For though Eru appointed to you to die not in Eä, and no sickness may assail you, yet slain ye may be, and slain ye shall be: by weapon and by torment and by grief; and your houseless spirits shall come then to Mandos. There long shall ye abide and yearn for your bodies, and find little pity though all whom ye have slain should entreat for you. And those that endure in Middle-earth and come not to Mandos shall grow weary of the world as with a great burden, and shall wane, and become as shadows of regret before the younger race that cometh after. The Valar have spoken.'

The Long Goodbye by Antane
This is my Big Bang contribution. It is a companion piece to Via Dolorosa. This time it is post-Quest book-Frodo struggling to reconcile within himself movie-Frodo’s memories. Told from book-Frodo’s POV so please keep that mind when reading it and do not be jarred when things happen (most importantly that Frodo and Sam live together at Bag End) that do not happen in the films. No slash of course, but lots of angst and hobbity love. Enjoy!

Can Gildor's past, painstakingly hidden, stand the onslaught of a young, sharp, inquisitive mind? For Teitho June 2011: "Father and Son."
