Summary
Halbrand, heir to the throne of the Southlands, finds himself stranded in the middle of the ocean with only the old man Diarmid for a friend. That is, until they rescue Galadriel, Commander of the Northern Armies, from the bitter waters. Picked up by a Númenorean ship on its way home, the trio finds safety within the island kingdom. Galadriel will not let Halbrand forget his destiny, or avoid it.
But the Shadow is once again stirring in Middle-earth, and when they discover that Halbrand is more than he seems, Galadriel is confronted with a painful past more intimately tied to Halbrand's future than either of them could have guessed. Thrust into a destiny he never wanted, Halbrand must now choose between finding the light and touching the darkness.
half-Maia!Halbrand AU. Rework of The Raft, Númenor, the lost king of the Southlands plot in Season 1, Eregion, and more. Will hit the major canonical events of the Second Age (eventually lol). Canon-divergent.

Summary
Galadriel lives in Valinor, after the One Ring is destroyed. The threat of Dagor Dagorath is looming. And it's only the beginning of the inner turmoils in her heart.

Summary
Freed after three ages in chains, Melkor returns to Valinor cloaked in false penitence, sowing discord among the Noldor. Yet when his gaze falls upon Lady Artanis - not yet Galadriel, but already radiant and unyielding - his hunger for light stretches beyond the Silmarils.
His plan is set: destroy the Two Trees, steal the Silmarils, and take her with them.
But in the depths of Angband, it is Sauron - Melkor’s most trusted servant - who becomes her jailor. To him she is not merely a prize nor a challenge, but a reflection of all he has lost, and a vision of what he might still claim.
Caught between Melkor’s shadow and Sauron’s relentless design, Galadriel must face a terrible choice: surrender her light, or let it burn brighter than ever. Even if it consumes her.
—————
OR: a First Age AU where Melkor covets not only the Silmarils, but the Elf whose hair inspired their creation.

Summary
After the first battle with Adar's forces, Eregion becomes a place of unrest, where elves try to create a weapon that can save Middle-earth. Galadriel brings the wounded Halbrand, who helps Celebrimbor control the mithril. When she discovers that Halbrand cannot be the king of the South, she becomes entangled in his dangerous game of appearances. She needs a symbol to save Middle-earth from darkness. He must decide whether he wants to be a king, a blacksmith, or perhaps someone much darker. In the shadow of the coming war, each of their meeting becomes an arena of passion, manipulation and ever deeper doubts. What will happen when Galadriel, torn between duty and her heart, allows herself to believe for the first time that one lie can save Middle-earth?
This is a story about what might have happened if, at the end of the first season, Sauron had not revealed his true identity to Galadriel.

Summary
The Orcs kill Adar, and Galadriel meets Sauron again, but he unexpectedly allows her to leave with the Nine Rings. At least, that is what she thinks.
Sauron is still in her head. He haunts her dreams, poisons her memories, and promises to make her deepest, forbidden desires a reality. Then Galadriel chooses the only path left to her…
In a war of minds, there is no escape, because there are only more circles of illusion. I give you a story about what happens when your greatest enemy is the only truth you desire, and your own body becomes a prison that he controls.
When hatred and desire have the same taste... how can you find the difference between dream and reality?

Summary
“What did you call yourself again? Galadriel of the Noldor? Daughter of so-and-so…?”
She straightened her shoulders. “Charming, really. I didn’t know you were listening that closely.”
“Well, I was a bit more focused on defusing the situation at hand,” he reminded her, “but I got the gist: you’re of noble blood. And I’m pretty sure kissing the Lady of Light might violate some ancient elven law. I really don’t want to be the one to corrupt you.”
“You don’t have that kind of power,” she mocked, but something in his eyes told her that for the first time in her life, she might be wrong.

Summary
Three years have passed since Galadriel believed she had lost Mairon forever, meanwhile he is alive, hidden in the shadow of his old name. As Halbrand, a blacksmith in Pelargir, he leads a simple life, free from war and intrigue, and at his side is someone who has filled the void left by his lost memories. But fate knows no mercy, and one meeting is enough for their old bond to begin to smoulder once more. He wants to protect his new life from the fires of the past, and she will do anything to restore his memory, even if it means burning in the flames with him. A game full of temptation, understatements and dangerous closeness begins between them, and every touch can become a spark that reminds Halbrand who he really was.
But in the shadow of their reborn bond, far across the sea, someone whose name has been almost forgotten returns to favour. He was a spirit of fire who once almost burned Middle-earth, and now he brings judgement to those who dared to break the eternal order of life and death.
Every step will bring Galadriel and Mairon closer to the truth, but also to danger, where not only their souls are at stake, but also the future of all Middle-earth.
