Summary
“When Vizieroy Mehrzād told Queen Arwen and King Elessar that the demolition of the Jud-Aman star tower of Middle Harad would be delayed by a day because the chief astronomer had thrown herself off its highest balcony, she took the news calmly, kissing Aragorn briefly on the cheek. She spent the afternoon walking in her temporary garden instead, thinking about how Elrond once told her that it had been the height of spring when Fëanorian warhorses thundered into Sirion seven thousand years ago.”

Summary
"But I believed that however thoroughly violence mars the map, there remained small territories it could not occupy, like the miller's daughter in Sirion who hid seventeen children in her cellar, or the Fëanorian soldier who looked inside and told his commanding officer that it housed only bags of flour. Even when massacres were framed as requirements, there persisted those minor refusals, those unrecorded divergences from inevitability."
OR
"My great-aunt Batshiba used to read me a story about an ancient elf who had a tail," Bilbo offered Fëanor placidly, before giving him a piercing look. "Was that you?"

Re-embodied into relative insignificance in Fourth Age Valinor, Fëanor, former High King of the Noldor and current lord of Formenos, is uncharacteristically obliging to a request for a tell-all interview with the editor in chief of Hello Valar Tirion's latest and hottest weekly magazine, well-known for its incisive interviews and its feel-good serial about a Haradrim soldier in the Shire. Unfortunately, said editor in chief happens to be Bilbo Baggins.Series

Summary
In rhythms of shuddering steel and blazing fire, the greatest music of all, as it rises, as I rise, through night made day in a burst of flame to meet you in the Void.
Eärendil was a mariner... on a spaceship. Though Melkor got there first. Eventually Mairon built one too, the mightiest of them all.

Summary
"But there is one detail none of them have noticed, or at least none have recorded: in the upper left corner, in the very first panel showing Fëanor as an infant, Míriel's small watching figure is not looking at her son. She is looking down at her own hands, at the invisible needle, at the act of weaving itself, horror and disgust gnashing teeth across the pale threads of her face. As though she already knew."
Miriel Þerinde sews a tapestry, puts on a show, and muddies the waters.
