Author: StarSpray

Title: Into the Mountains

Characters: Ohtar, OC

Pairing: n/a

Text type / Format: ficlet

Source / Fandom: LotR

Rating: General

Warnings: n/a

Word Count: 629

Summary: Ohtar and his companion head into the Misty Mountains.
Author notes: I have given Ohtar the name Terendil because Ohtar is a title and it feels weird to write from his POV using it. This was also written for the SWG Postcard challenge; the text of mine was "I kept my eyes ahead of me, and so I managed" and the image is here.

Word Count: 361

Summary: At the winter solstice celebrations in Cuiviénen, Ingwë’s brew goes to Finwë’s head…
Author notes: Written for the 2020 Tolkien Secret Santa Advent Calendar on Tumblr. I got the Day 11 NSFW prompt 'Drunken Fun'. I work with the round world version of the mythology, hence the reference to the moon pre-First Age.

Many thanks to Raiyana for bouncing ideas about primitive distillation, and of course for the title help!

Innocence

[shadowbrides]

Author: Aerlinn

Title: Innocence

Characters: Maedhros, the Noldor as a people

Text type / Format: ficlet

Source / Fandom: Silm

Rating: General

Warnings: n/a

Word Count: 495

Summary: Maedhros goes to parlay with Morgoth. How different the world they imagined must have been.
Author notes: Nur-Menel is a name for the Lesser Firmament, Varda's dome above Aman that imitates the real stars (but closer, brighter). Which is to say; this is more or less the later Round World verse, where the sun did exist from the start (but was not always visible from either Valinor or because of Morgoth). ETA: LOL AU because I forgot Morgoth introduced lying in Valinor (I think being familiar with false rumours... is somewhat relevant...). WELL. My only excuse is that I wrote this in 10 minutes. :(
