Letters from Himring by Ermingarden

Fanwork Notes

Written for Tolkien Reverse Summer Bang 2021, originally posted on AO3 here. 

Thank you, first and foremost, to Frog_In_A_Pond / Fandom_fun13 for the amazing art that inspired this fic, and for giving me the go-ahead when I said I wanted to do a weird academic pastiche. 

Thanks as well to everyone on the SWG Discord, who reassured me that it’s actually just fine to have that many footnotes; and thanks especially to UnnamedElement and Bluehair, who helped come up with song titles for Maglor’s repertoire. 

And, of course, thank you to the TRSB mods for running such a great event! 

Warnings: Deaths of background characters, blink-and-you-miss-it implications of torture.
