Lay of Leithian Rock-Opera : Libretto Translation by aro_fox
Fandoms: The Silmarillion and other histories of Middle-Earth - J. R. R. Tolkien
21 Aug 2021
Tags
Summary
"If you are a hero- go with the dawn,
And turn your word into reality.
Take the northern road, to the Kingdom of Darkness,
And return with a Silmaril..."Two different fates are woven together when Lúthien, an elven princess, falls in love with Beren, a hero of mortal men. To win her hand, Beren is sent on an impossible quest- to cut a legendary gem from the crown of the Dark Lord. So begins this battle between light and darkness, love and duty, in the most enduring tale of Middle Earth.
Recently adapted in Russia as a rock-opera, the Lay of Leithian is reimagined and revitalized. With a stellar cast, and music composed and adapted by Skadi, it's an entirely new way to experience the story of Beren and Lúthien.
Here you'll find the entire libretto translated into English, best used as subtitles for the 2021 livestream recording. Information and links for viewing are included in the notes.

The Strange and Wonderful Marriage of Barney Snaith by Wolha_m
Fandoms: Blue Castle - L. M. Montgomery
21 Sep 2024
Tags
Summary
Barney Snaith is many things - a writer (albeit one with nom de plume), a woodsman, a cat person and, above everything else, a loner. He tried the whole friendship and love things once and it was more than enough, thank you very much. The very last thing he expects to ever do in his life is to get married and yet this is exactly what happens to him one summer evening - and he's the last person to make any sense of it.
Retelling of "Blue Castle" from Barney's POV.

OMG this fits perfectly with The Blue Castle. Delightful style, excellent voice, a whole novel's worth of lost moments and alternative views of scenes, all expertly interwoven with LMM's prose.

Summary
Men like Enjolras belonged in books: those of ancient history, once the uglier facets of reality had been dulled by a forgiving editorial hand, or in poetry; in myths and legends that were by design exemplary, idealised projections, their heroes far too perfect to be wrought of anything but paper and ink.
If Cupid had struck Grantaire with an arrow of gold, he had surely struck Enjolras with an arrow of lead.

Grantaire invites Enjolras into his studio, beginning a slow but profound shift in their relationship.

Summary
“A-Chao,” Wen Xu said. “I think our father is insane.”
Wen Chao’s eye twitched visibly, his shoulders rising up to his ears. “You can’t say that! That’s treason!”
“I’ve already made sure there’s no one anywhere around us right now, not even people I trust.”
Down went the shoulders.
“Of course he’s insane,” Wen Chao said. "Not much of an empire to rule if they’re all ghost puppets, is there? I think the Yin Metal is poisoning his brain.”
"Is there anyone we can ask for help? Anyone we haven’t pissed off?”
They both paused, thinking.
“…no,” Wen Chao said. “But in our defense, we never thought we’d need any of them, did we?”

Summary
Combeferre started his lesson with life:
“Anh, pronounced Ankh, is the word for life."
It felt more poignant to him, in the wake of the July Revolution. He had tried to decipher and dissect the Revolution. All he had found was an uneasiness that lingered heavily in the air, as well as blood splatters. The birth pangs had resulted in a stillbirth.In 1831, Combeferre and Prouvaire discuss July Revolution, hieroglyphs, religion and ghosts, as Combeferre comes to terms with the fact that when it comes to Revolution, while he is as committed to the ideals and the means to achieve them as his friends, he still wants to keep his divided heart.

"Xichen has loved his brother so much he thinks his heart might bear him ill will at this point. He will always ache when he is gone, like one of his arms is missing. He will try to soothe his brother’s troubled heart for a thousand years, if loving this boy is what will bring Wangji the most happiness, but it pricks at him like a doctor’s needles to see his brother’s open devotion treated like nothing by its very object."
