An abundance of Fs, in memory of Fëanor. The prompt was a picture of pink flowers (called fireweed) in a burnt landscape.
Gimli rides behind Legolas, and dreams. For the prompt:
Your shoulder blade, your spine, were shorelines in the moonlight
New worlds for the weary, new lands for the living
Túrin mourns Beleg. For the prompts:
silence, thunder, guilt, secrets
A new grief opened inside me like an umbrella
All my books are lying useless now, all my maps will only show me how to lose my way
Morwen watches Túrin sleep, after Lalaith's death. The prompts were:
loved, still, gleaming, gold
We walk the hillside like lost souls in the night
Grief will teach you new names
Voronwë on the shore. For the prompts:
night, risk, old, fate and
I stand amid the roar of a surf-tormented shore
Maeglin's hopeless love. For the prompts:
pleasure, noble, fire, eyes
There's a hole in my pocket where my dreams fell through
Wintering with snow / That did not melt / It fell long ago / At night, by stealth
Aredhel is dying, and thinking about Maeglin.
For the prompts:
guilt, law, soon, worry and I closed my eyes and tarried until the morning light.
