Schoolmaster Atkins, at the end of his life, doesn't go the same way Niggle did, but he still finds Niggle's Tree.

Atkins (the schoolmaster who had the painting of a leaf by Niggle framed) had a wreath issue that year.

Elrond picks up a hint of Maglor's whereabouts and follows it... (Set a long time after the end of the First Age, perhaps in the Third Age.)

Quirky Tom is stumped in his investigation; his partner delivers the goods. (Deliberately misleading summary inspired by the challenge prompts! See Story Notes for more reliable information.)

It is the time before the War of the Last Alliance, before the first fall of Isildur's recently built city of Minas Ithil to Sauron's attack.

One of its inhabitants is sensitive to the unseasonable weather; she does not quite realize she is also suffering from premonitions.

At the lowest ebb of her fortunes, Morwen was left with only two of her former servants: Sador, who was lame in one foot, and Ragnir, who was blind.

We know she had sometimes been unsympathetic to Sador's failings, until her family changed her mind.

We need not assume she had a similar history with blind Ragnir, though.

Beorn's last farewell to his son.

With a coda, showing the Beornings returning to the mountains.

A tiny gap-filler from Elrond's POV.

Memories of Eregion.

A poem imagined as accompanying a gift for Mettarë (1 Yule) from Finduilas of Amroth to her brother Imrahil, at a time when she was already married to Denethor and homesick for Dol Amroth.

An early encounter between Gleowine the minstrel and the battle harp--and also between Gleowine and his future king, Theoden, son of Thengel.

Written for the Art's Desire challenge at the LOTR community (February 2017).

Inspired by Rohan icons created by Oshun for the July 2012 Art Challenge: Miniature.

Oshun commented on the icons: "It is part of my own personal, perhaps AU, canon to imagine that the Rohan as an oral culture made use of harps, including battle harps."

The icons depicted riders and a harp.

Drabbles about food:

I: Caraway (featuring Frodo and Rosie)

II: Cheese-wright of Gondor (featuring a woman of Lossarnach)

Valacar, prince of Gondor, is sent to Rhovanion to learn the ways of his father’s allies and falls in love with Vidumavi, the daughter of his host.

Goldberry is the River-daughter.

A Noldorin academic may express her opinions quite forcefully, sometimes.

Tatiel already had a bit of a reputation, even before the Darkening, and she is not cowed.

Stringed instruments require stringing.

Maglor has used many sets of strings.

The usurper Tar-Anducal has closed the theatre in Armenelos that his deceased wife, Tar-Vanimelde, so loved.

The group of dancers that conspired with her against his usurpation have been touring everywhere except in the capital, hoping not to draw his notice.

Are their fortunes about to change?

Riddles about two female characters from Rohan, and three drabbles each about these two female characters .

Beorn and his son Grimbeorn the Old are canonical, so Grimbeorn's mother must be, too.

But what was she like?

Two drabbles on the mourning in Gondor for Boromir's death.

What the title says.

Poem in response to Rhapsody's excellent stories about Gilraen.
