Pallando and the Lost Realm of Palisor by Ilkorindrim
Fanwork Notes
Nota Bene: This story will incorporate multiple contradictory sources as source material regarding the Blue Wizards. Certain sources have to be chosen as more definitive than others, but allusions to other versions of the tale may be made. In this case, some elements from the Book of Lost Tales are also being repurposed to flesh out the culture of the Avari who refused the journey from Cuivienen. A major plot point is also the four clans of the Dwarves in the Red Mountains.
I hope you enjoy this story of Pallando, the Blue Wizard, on his relentless journey to redeem and defend the East.

Summary:
Pallando the Blue Wizard arrives in Middle Earth in the Middle of the Second Age to aid the Elves of Lindon and Eregion in their war against Sauron. Almost at once, he abandons his post, leaving the war effort to Alatar his partner, and travels East. Some force compels him to go to the Red Mountains, his feet drawing him ever on towards the Gates of the Sun at Kalorme. Along the way he will go to the ruins of Belegost, encounter Daeron the Loremaster lingering on the shores of Lake Nenuial, and travel the Old Dwarf Road to Gundabad to council the Longbeards on the war in Eregion. But he is drawn thence to the Eastern shores of Rhun, where an ancient mystery from a lost realm of the Avari awaits him: the realm of Palisor. It is King Tu, last King of the Wild Elves, who from his seat in the underground lake on the Eastern Shores of Rhun, holds the key that will save the Men of the East — or put them under the Shadow forever.
