Rating: General up to this point. Later chapters may include some more graphic slash, but you will be forewarned.

Genre: Angst, romance, drama, action/adventure.

Summary: A sweeping arc set initially in the Second Age in Lindon, telling the story of the rebirth of Glorfindel of Gondolin and a very nasty scar. It follows his developing relationship with Gil-galad and also features Elrond, Erestor, Celebrian, Celeborn and Galadriel, tracing their involvements in the key events of the Second Age and through into the Third.

Author's Introduction: Although I have written several LOTR pieces before, ranging from short stories to novel-length, I plan on this one being the longest. It is also the first that is set strictly in a Silmarillion timescale and uses canon events within the plot.

I feel that one of my main issues is writing to a long timescale; it's something that I find very tricky, and so I'm always open to feedback on this (actually, I'm always open to feedback on any aspects of my writing - I will bounce rather than explode if you send me constructive criticism!) The other main issue with this story is the manipulation of canon to fit, given how sketchy it is around the Second Age. I'm always happy to discuss anything.
