When you need a mount for wandering far afield to the furthest reaches of Middle-earth. (This is the stall for all prompts that are set in places in the Years of the Trees and First and Second Ages that do not have stalls of their own, such as Cuiviénen and Angband.)

Comments are now closed but you can continue using the prompts; no claiming is necessary.

How to Post your Prompts:

Leave a comment with the subject line identifying the main characters, gen/het/slash/femslash/poly (if it’s not obvious), a brief description of the prompt, and possible warnings if needed (MPTTor SWG’s). The comment itself should be the prompt.

If for some reason you cannot make a subject line appear, please write and bold the relevant information as the first line of your prompt.

The subject lines and/or bold text will allow participants to easily scan for prompts they're interested in.

For example:

Subject line-- Frodo and Aragorn, gen, hurt/comfort at the Field of Cormallen
Comment-- While Frodo is unconscious after being rescued from Mount Doom, Aragorn cares for him.

OR

Comment-- Fëanor/Nerdanel, wedding night, sexual content

On their wedding night, Fëanor and Nerdanel end up not sleeping at all, as they are too busy enjoying each other.

Anything dated from the shores of Cuiviénen to the early days of the march across the mountains to the sea. My favorite possible character would be Beleg mentioned in The of Lay of the Children of Húrin as:

. . . It was Beleg the hunter,
who farthest fared of his folk abroad
a hunting by hill and hollow valley,
Who care not for concourse and commerce of men.
He was great of growth and goodly limbed,
But light of girth, and lightly on the ground
His footsteps fell as he fared towards them,
All garbed in grey and green and brown—
A son of the wilderness who wist no sire.

That last line indicates to me that he was born on the shores of Cuiviénen. I talked about his origins in my character bio on the SWG site.

LOL. We both used the same passage in our prompts, but to totally different purpose! I hope both versions get filled.

Great! The more the better! I have never limited myself to seeing one interpretation only of the same bits canon.

Me, too--in fact, after thinking about it, I have an idea I want to try for your prompt.

I'm buying it!

I'm so excited! I cannot wait to read it. Making these prompts is so much. (I had better check my bank balance!)

Has Binka already seen this prompt? *shouts* Biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinks *shuts up and wanders off to find her*

Thanks! I hope you find her.

I've seen it of course :) I'm pondering... I think I might make it part of the sequel to "Carmina Brethilia". I'm thinking about it.

Oh, please do think about it. Another Beleg story from you would be brilliant.

Oh hell, why not. I'm in :)

:::fishes out a farthing from her pocket:::

Yes! I look forward to it.

Here... let me just... grab a copy of this...

Help yourself. Beleg would be great.

I'll take you up on this one. In fact, I just did. :-)

*hands over farthing*

Definitely going to need this one!
