Finding Vingilot by Lyra
Format: Art
Genre: Gen
Rating: Gen
Warnings: None
Characters: Elwing
Pairings: Elwing/Eärendil
Summary: For Ulmo bore up Elwing out of the waves, and he gave her the likeness of a great white bird, and upon her breast there shone as a star the Silmaril, as she flew over the water to seek Eärendil her beloved. On a time of night Eärendil at the helm of his ship saw her come towards him, as a white cloud exceeding swift beneath the moon, as a star over the sea moving in strange course, a pale flame on wings of storm.

The Harvester by Lyra
Format: Art
Genre: Character Design
Rating: Gen
Warnings: None
Characters: Yavanna
Pairings: None
Summary: We tend to think of Yavanna as a cuddly harvest goddess or a grand old tree, but we can probably trust that on occasions like the War of Wrath, she'd be quite the fearsome warrior. BUCKLE UP, ORCS, IT'S HARVEST TIME. Here's a battle look for the Mother of Ents!

Spring, Summer, and Fading by Klose
Format: Short story
Genre: Romance
Rating: Teens
Warnings: None
Characters: Celebrían, Elrond, Glorfindel, Celeborn, Gil-galad
Pairings: Celebrían/Elrond
Summary: “Did you know, Gil-galad,” Glorfindel says, stepping up at Elrond’s other side, swirling the wine in his goblet with studied casualness, “That Elrond has also been learning the secrets of Nandorin healing arts from Lady Celebrían?”
“Nandorin healing arts ? Is that what they’re calling it these days?” Gil-galad wonders mildly, sipping at his own drink.

(This is the one I hesitated to include here because it’s from Elrond’s POV, but I adore this fic and Celebrían’s characterization.)

Rating: Teens
Warnings: Mild violence
Characters: OFCs, canonical Northern Dúnedain
