New Challenge: Title Track
Tolkien's titles range from epic to lyrical to metaphorical. This month's challenge selected 125 of them as prompts for fanworks.

Two young, orphaned Noldor meet the sons of Finarfin; and Finrod has cause to re-appreciate his foster-son. Takes place in FA 20 at the Mereth Aderthad.

A weary return from an arduous journey, and a conversation with a young ellon, makes Gildor realized that heroes are perhaps a matter of perspective.

While the title is Anlgo-Saxon, this is a character study of Finrod Felagund, "the far-wandering king" of Nargothrond; written from... an unusual perspective.

A character study in prose form of Finduilas, Lady of Nargothrond.

In Lindon, in the middle of the Second Age, Gildor Inglorion and his oldest friend both give and receive some unexpected news.

Fate, Ulmo's goodwill, and a family history of stubborn determination bring Idril to a reunion she had never thought possible.

An exploration of the dynamic between Curufin and Celebrimbor in Nargothrond, how the father struggles with his own issues and mental blindness after the loss of Himlad and how Celebrimbor tries to bring his father back the way he used to be.
Celegorm as the 'unfortunate' witness of it.

A dramatic retelling of the events depicted in The Silmarillion and The Unfinished Tales. Part 1 of 6, Flight of the Noldor deals with the war between Feanor and Melkor over the Silmarils, and the exodus of the Noldor from Valinor to Middle Earth.

Bits and bobs, drabbles from challenges and other small stories that don't fit anywhere else. Some are related to other stories, like Malaise, and others are just oddbits. Various ratings and characters.

The Midwinter cake is missing, and Idril, Aredhel, and Meleth go on a quest to find it.

As it is part of my own and Éomer's shared origin, we have taken some interest in the geneaologies of Dol Amroth, Lothíriel wrote, and although the Line of Princes is documented in detail, mysteries continue to surround the women of its beginning, namely the Silvan Elf Mithrellas and her daughter Gilmith.

They are the equal -if not greater- in worth to the Silmarils.

They stared at their father and then at Maglor. Arwen eventually said, “Welcome to Imladris.”

Newly arrived at Khazad-dûm in the Second Age, the Elven loremaster Pengolodh presents a portion of his new book to Narvi only to discover that his understanding of the “great profit” that existed between the Dwarves of Belegost and the people of Caranthir in the First Age is not quite what he assumed. Written for Zdenka for the 2015 LotRGenfic/MPTT Yule Exchange.

A catch-all for short ficlets, largely centering on yet another OFC in the Pandë!verse, namely Culinen (referenced in various fics, including The Elendilmir and The Writhen Pool), who eventually becomes the master of the Guild of the Heart (healers' guild) in Ost-in-Edhil, and who contributes to the "eldritch alleles" of J. Robert Oppenheimer, Hypatia of Alexandria, and Hedy Lamarr (among others!) in the alternative history of the Pandë!verse.
Ratings will be given per chapter.
