Mae govannen na in-ennyn eryn! (Well met at the gates of the forest!)Our story? A disenchanted NYC lawyer moves to rural Ireland, unintentionally entangling herself with the Wood-Elves of Hobbit fame that never departed Middle-earth. An Irish ex-con plus colorful friends soon follow and life is never the same. The deeds and achievements of the younger race of Men in all their splendor and horror unveil to the ancient, immortal and arguably stagnated race of Elves, leaving much to be explored of society, history, culture and beyond. More than two decades’ story time tell a tale of social collapse, families that grow under one very large roof, battles against past and present traumas, prejudices, and the slow return of the great First Age Elves to the light of day. Eru Ilúvatar had a plan for this world of Arda. Tolkien never elaborated. So a little voice said: "Go finish the Ainulindalë." And we respectively said: "Okay. I need tea." This fic has a Discord server, Aran Thranduil's Dining Hall. All readers are welcome: https://discord.gg/ywxmuHpXba . We lurk mostly 10am to 10pm Pacific Standard Time. Link not working? Please leave a comment on the fic and let us know so we can fix it!

After his disgrace at Tol Sirion/Tol-in-Gaurhoth, Mairon has returned to Angband after about a year of self-imposed exile. Despite being banned from Melkor's Presence and sentenced to spend his days laboring in the mines under his own fortress, Mairon is not capable of forgetting where his true duty lies. Have you ever wondered how Mairon became so adept at manipulation to seduce poor Tyelpe into making the Rings of Power or persuade that git Ar-Pharazon "The Golden" into actually attacking Valinor? (Thank you to Morgause1 - from whom I've "borrowed" the concept of Mairon's punishment in the mines. And thank you to Jess - fantasychica37 on Tumblr - for the impetus necessary to put this beast to bed - literally.) I would like to Dedicate this story to the both of you in gratitude for the inspiration you've given me. Thank you again, very much!
