Bio:
Hello and greetings!
I enjoy writing. I have a big passion for The Silmarillion, namely the Akallabêth and the Númenoreans. I run a small Númenorean Research and Writing group that welcomes al who want to learn more about this fascinating culture.
Just about all my stories here are set in Númenor, or involve the Númenoreans. It's what I love, what I know. Even though I relish research of the canon material, you will find my stories are a mix of traditional views as well as some her etical ones.I write just about everything from mystery, adventure, experimental, drama, and romance that involves both het and/or femslash pairings.
I enjoy interacting with other authors, and I love to hear from my readers. If you read one of my stories and want to comment, don't be shy! While I do not list myself as a beta reader I am more than happy to assist authors with tasks such as character and plot development as well as historical research and mot especially with any sort of research regarding the Second Age and the Númenoreans. Please feel free to contact me if you would like any assistance in these areas.
Due to the extensive nature of my verse of Númenor, I have begun a reference guide to help readers keep track of my myraid amount of original characters, chronilogical order of stories/series, as well as any other information that may be helpful to readers.
Due to circumstances in real life all new updates and stories added to this archive are now being posted by Lady Roisin's husband. However all reviews and comments are always forwarded to Lady Roisin.

Now Both of You are Safe by Lady_Roisin
Rated: Adult | [Reviews - 4]
Summary: Elentir was not the only one who captured the heart of Tar-Míriel. This is a story of passion, sacrifice, and how much one is willing to break the rules of integrity, even love, to save those she adores the most. This is my take on what could have become of Elentir, and why he, and a certain lady in service to the Queen, vanish from written history. WARNING! This story does contain explicit sexual content and is probably not suitable to be read at work. This story was written in honor of International Day of Femslash.
