    A herald in Mordor by for Archraven

    Summary

    Adar has declared himself King of Mordor. And a King is always in need of a herald. Unfortunately, he has his eyes set on one herald in particular. There is nothing that would make Gil-Galad part with his herald, except that Adar has promised to recall his children to Mordor and trouble the peoples of Middle-Earth no longer. He will also lend his army in the fight against Sauron.

    And though Elrond feels that he would sooner die, it is painfully clear what the lesser of the two evils are, and the whole of Middle-Earth is at stake. Besides, they only need a few months in order to defeat Sauron, once they have done that then he will be able to return to Lindon for good. This is just a temporary sacrifice. And his dear friend and brother Prince Durin will not be far away.

    AU that takes place just after Season 2 Episode 1, when Elrond is working at the boathouse, but just before Galadriel goes to talk to him about joining the mission to Eregion.

    Summary

    Legolas has a breaking point, and he has passed it long ago. He has decided to pack up and leave, even if he feels in his heart that there has to be another way, although he is not able to see it, maybe because his heart has been breaking for the last three years. May the Valar have mercy on him and guide him home wherever that is.

    Summary

    Celebrimbor flees a besieged Ost-in-Edhil to get the remaining mythril and knowledge of the Three Rings away from Sauron, or to lure Sauron away from his city with what he’s taken with him - whichever he can pull off first. A scarred elf with a surprising amount of experience with Sauron guides him through the battlefield.

    Or, Adar’s first fight against Sauron goes poorly between Damrod defecting and Sauron enchanting some of the Uruk to his side. Saving a strategically valuable elf from both Sauron's mind manipulation and his hunting will have to do as a Plan B.

    Summary

    The second prophecy of Mandos states: "When the world is old and the Powers grow weary, then Morgoth, seeing that the guard sleepeth, shall come back through the Door of the Night out of the Timeless Void; and he shall destroy the Sun and the Moon."

    This is the story of the Dagor Dagorath, the Battle of Battles and how even the smallest creatures can affect the course of fate.
