    Summary

    “Cruel. Merciless. Terrible, yes.” Each word seems to sting in her gut, inflame it. Conjure more images of muscled arms and blunt steel and splitting skin and sweat. She remembers the shape of Adar pinned beneath his boot, but her imagination offers someone else in his place: golden-haired and trembling and— “But you know this is the price of power, Galadriel. Sometimes we have no choice.”

    “I know.” Her breath goes hobbled by the greedy, sickening warmth in her middle. “But you aren’t like that. To me. Ever.”

    Summary

    Sun-dark days. Days bathed in hot sweat and nausea. Slow starvation and deathlike exhaustion pitching a battle over her body as she clings to him.

    Barely realizing one evening, as the sky shuts its bright, bruised eye, that her head is resting on his solid chest.

    Summary

    "Once upon a time there was a soldier, a great warrior of the elves. The youngest child and only daughter of a mighty family. And there was… what am I in this story? The monster, the king?”

    In trying to convince Halbrand to leave Númenor and take his place as king of the Southlands, Galadriel swears an oath to stand by him no matter what his past holds. This changes the history of Middle-earth for many centuries to come.

    [This is linked to the other stories in this collection - it's an expansion of one of the scenarios in the 5+1 story 'Five times Halbrand's secret got revealed' - but it's a standalone fic that should make sense by itself.]
