New Challenge: Crossroads of the Fallen King
Cross "The Silmarillion" with a second text or fandom in this month's crossover challenge.
Angband is not what Maedhros expected.
In which Mairon uses charm to get what he wants, Maedhros learns a great deal about the Enemy, Melkor eventually loses his patience, and Fingon is vailant.
(mostly featuring Maedhros & Sauron, but with Melkor/Mairon and Maedhros/Fingon as well)
My illustrations with a bit of life and music by DTH. English subtitles added for the lyrics in Polish. (More details in description.)
The Void welcomes Mairon the Admirable, at the end of all things.

A little drabble I wrote for @angbangweek Day 4: The Void.
Two natural philosophers struggle to warn the Faithful that the end of Númenor is approaching. But can sworn enemies find a way forward in the midst of the final tumult?
A disabled young man is approached by a mysterious stranger. A triple drabble.
After capturing Finrod and his companions, Gorthaur attempts to discover their identities...
Celebrimbor muses on the meeting that changed his life.
A fleeting moment in the last days of Celebrimbor's life, in the dungeons below Eregion. Even if it hurts to kill the one he loves, even if Celebrimbor has forever changed him, it is too late for Sauron to turn back.
On the last night of the war, Melkor sends Mairon away.
In captivity, Celebrimbor draws the diagram of the tower where he’s held.
A translation of a description of a frieze in the antechamber of the Temple of Melkor at Armenelos by Lindir of Rivendell.
Melkor has an OnlyFans & Mairon is his #1 subscriber. Modern!AU
Melian & Mairon meet under unexpected circumstances in Beleriand and develop an unlikely sort-of friendship over the years.
The queen of Númenor reflects on her past and future with a strange companion.
Together, they could have been great. But love cannot last, on the inescapable path Sauron has set for himself.
As he gains more territory in Eriador after the fall of Eregion, Sauron contemplates his solitude.
Idril loves Maeglin. He knows this is true, because she tells him it is. He loves her, too.
Adar's life through the First Age -- before he was even called Adar.
Mairon flees Angband to warn his lovers in Gondolin of the impending fall of the city.

The end of the world comes to pass; the end of the world will come to pass.m
Pharazôn has just won a victory for the ages. So why does he feel so unsettled?
Mother, let me live to see the day go by
Save me from myself, for I will sacrifice
Anything and Everything, to feel Him one more time
--Sacrifice, Aleah.
S’il y avait une chose qu’Erestor méprisait, c’était l’imbécillité.
Alors Erestor, une personne « comme il faut », s'est donné le droit de rouspéter.
The swelling influence of the Elven kindgoms caught thus the notice of one who named himself Annatar, and to Eregion he arrived with little flourish yet with much to give. He came before Celebrimbor, and bowed deep in respect, which impressed the Lord for the humility of one so great as him, as a Maia, as one of the Ainur.
Ar-Pharazôn, the mighty King of Númenor, thinks he has triumphed when his powerful enemy, Sauron, surrenders, and the King carries him back to his glorious island kingdom. However, Sauron’s greatest power lies not in his armies, but in his capacity for guile and seduction. A drama with many players.
Rating: M overall, although, no doubt, future chapters will have explicit content.
