    Summary

    History isn't all that it's cracked up to be, and Bloom seems to be the only one to know that.
    What do you get when you toss a victim of the American public education system with a deep interest in history into a highly propagandized world of magic, fairies and justice?
    Bloom. You get Bloom. And making friends with her enemies, apparently. And making enemies with her friends, apparently. And it's going to be fine, honestly. They're at Alfea to change the world. Why not start with its past?

    Summary

    It goes like this: Criston has lived for twenty-two years until he remembers a life before this one. He is kneeling before King Viserys Targaryen, the First of His Name, and his wife and daughter, the blood roaring in his ears as his limbs shake with pain and exhaustion. A distance away, Prince Daemon, the king’s brother, glares at him, nursing his wounds. His morningstar lies off to the side, discarded in favor of the crown of laurels he cradles in his hands.

     

    or

    A young man, reincarnated as Criston Cole, remembers his past life, and Rhaenyra Targaryen is forever changed for it. For better or for worse, Westeros is set on a different path.

    Summary

    Maedhros son of Fëanor aids in the rescue of a thrall child, a boy with bright eyes like shining little stars.

    The Peredhel twins recognise something in High King Gil-Galad: a particular left-handed style to his swordfighting, a sharp tactical mind, a suppressed Fëanorian accent.

    A fiery spirit in the Halls of Mandos greets a stranger as a grandson.

    And in Valinor, Fingolfin son of Finwë finds that the imposter prince who had claimed descent from Fingon resembles his brother far more than his son...

    Summary

    Life sang through Elwing’s blood with a Song inherited from Melian. The Silmaril Sang with it and shone so bright it blinded her to anything else but its light. The wind kept rushing over her form, ripping her dark hair every which way and the sea below seemed to also Sing.

    Then Elwing wasn’t falling anymore. Something shifted in fëa and hröa, and Elwing’s world became white feathers before her sight cleared up and was sharper than ever. She was flying...

    ------
    What if the Silmarils could fundamentally change an elf over the course of centuries? Elwing and Eärendil have one, Maglor and Maedhros had the other two. This is the story of how they changed, what have they become, and what have they got up to that made them myths, legends and folktales across Middle-earth.
