The Blacksmith by Fernstrike

B2MeM Prompt and Path: Wild card: select from a previous challenge; I chose B2MeM 2011, March 1: Nan Elmoth - a story where seduction plays a central role. Green path.
Format: Poetry/Short Story
Genre: Character Study; Tragedy
Rating: Mature
Warnings: Moderate violence; mild sexual content.
Characters: Sauron, Morgoth, Eonwë, Celebrimbor
Pairings: Sauron/Morgoth; Sauron/Celebrimbor
Creator’s Notes (optional): This tale is told in prose-poetry style and uses epithets rather than character names. If the latter should prove confusing in any way, there's a clarifying note at the bottom.
Summary: "The brightest flame within the forge will cast the darkest shadow.” Or, the seduction of Mairon, the fall, and his dark descent thereafter.
This is also available on AO3!

Warnings:
Characters: Rushirithir (Balrog of Moria), Acairis (you'll see =) ), Eonwe, Ilmare, Nienna, Tilion, Ulmo
Pairings:
Summary: Rushirithir's stay at Nienna's continues, and a chance meeting with an old friend brings new meaning to his views on Light and Darkness.
A/N: Many thanks to Fiondil again, whose influence has made itself known in my writing by the use of Acairis.
