Summary
Feanor has left the Halls of Mandos and walks in the Undying Lands again. Everyone knows what this means: he will soon break the Silmarils and the world will end.
But first, he must "get ready for it", whatever this exactly means. When will he be ready? Nobody knows, not even Finrod. Not even Namo. Everybody's waiting and speculating: some with hope, some with terror, and many with a mix of both. And the final day grows closer.
The Advent Calendar fic for 2025, now complete! (Merry Christmas!) Vaguely inspired by my previous year's Advent fic series.
Loose chapter structure (you may skip some without much loss if you want to). A mix of emotions: some cozy, some angst, some humor, some grief. The emotions gets more intense near the end. Many PoVs. The characters I tagged have repeated PoVs, but so do Maglor and Curufin. Many others have a single scene: mostly Elves, but also some of the Ainur.

Summary
“You should have tried singing to it.”
He looked towards the direction of the voice, but there was nothing in there. Not darkness, not an empty space. Nothing.
“Why?”
“This is how you seek what you’ve lost.”
This is a fic that happened to me when I was trying to write something else. It's odd. The dove isn't dead, but compared to my average, it's definitely having a psychedelic episode.

Summary
Galadriel faces one of her darkest moments— no, it's not a tRoP fic, even though this start sounds like it. But it does take place in the Second Age in Eregion. So, once again:
Galadriel faces one of her darkest moments, when she needs to decide how much is she willing to sacrifice to protect the world from her cousin's (half-cousin's once-removed, to be precise) misplaced hopes.

Fandom The Lord of the Rings - All Media Types, The Silmarillion and other histories of Middle-Earth - J. R. R. Tolkien
03 Sep 2025
Summary
Each story can be read on its own, they are connected by character and theme, but not by plot.
Dialogues of Finrod and various characters, all involving philosophy, all at least somewhat alluding to or inspired by "Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth". Focus on metaphysics, not on Aegnor's love life. At various points of Finrod's life(s) and death.

Silmarillion Advent Calendar 2024 by Eri_pl
Fandom The Hobbit - J. R. R. Tolkien, The Silmarillion and other histories of Middle-Earth - J. R. R. Tolkien
01 Nov 2024
Summary
OK, so you know how Advent calendars work, right? I imagine it's a known thing, not only for Christians, because every chocholate making company makes them and supermarkets shove them in people's faces. Anyway in case you don't: You have a box with 24 (or whatever amount of days depending on the year) slots, and each day you open the one with the day's date and there's a small treat in there. (Here in Europe they are actually good.)
So here are 24 small treats for you for December 1st - 24th.
This is a cross-post from Tumblr, but Ao3 doesn't have scheduling, and I'm not sure if I can post here every day, so I'll upload all of them now and trust you, dear readers, to not eat them all at once.
Each number is for December [number]th! Or later, of course. I mean, I cannot prevent you from reading them earlier, but… imagine it's a box of chocholades.
They aren't necessarily 100% consistent with each other or other stuff I wrote, but there are some connections. Mostly canon, some have slight non-canon elements. SFW, some are rated T for Silm-typical violence and doom (or impled offscreen sex), some are pure fluff. Some are dark, some are cozy.

Summary
Knowing your enemy is important. Knowing what your enemy knows of you is equally so. Therefore, there is significant strategic merit in covertly observing a five-act musical performance about yourself and your immediate family. For reconnaissance purposes.

Summary
Lyrics for the Finrod-zong rock opera given in the original Russian Cyrillic, transliteration, and English translation. It's the Beren and Lúthien story but with a focus on Finrod's part in it.
Chapter 1 is indexed to the 2014 lyrics; chapter 2 should be accurate for any more recent versions (2022 onward for sure, likely 2019-2021 Finrods as well).

Summary
This night was different. As happened occasionally on the border between sleep and waking, Frodo found himself suddenly dropping. But he did not catch himself with a start, safe on the soft grass of Caras Galadhon. Instead he kept falling; he plummeted through a rushing darkness and in nightmare he saw the shape from more dreadful waking: the black flame of the terror of Moria, Durin’s Bane.
