    Summary

    “She lives.”
    Galadriel knows that voice. That drawled, amused, slightly condescending voice. Her mind is still hazy from sleep but her heart warms with an instinctive flicker of happiness.
    “No stew this time, I’m afraid,” the voice continues, rough with the accent of the Southlands. “Poisoned or otherwise.”
    His words and the familiarity of the walls around her overlap in her mind, nudging her to remember something. She follows their trail sluggishly, slotting memories into place as she finds them. She takes a moment to admire the full picture – and then comes the weight of remembering, of loss and rage, crushing her with a weight so heavy it pins her to the stone cot beneath her. Her breath leaves her in a rush, exhaling those last little sleepy shards of hope.

    Or:

    Pharazôn is convinced Sauron and Galadriel are allies, and intends to make them face a reckoning which begins back in a Númenórean prison cell.

    Summary

    He wears his creation proudly. It brings beauty to the hazy skies of Mordor. He is beautiful, Galadriel thinks, now that he has created that which suits him perfectly.

    or

    A year has passed since the battle at Eregion, less since the creation of the One Ring. Sauron is taken captive by Numenor, and Galadriel with him.

    Summary

    Canon divergence from 1x07. This follows their journey as Sauron struggles to unmake himself from the dark legacy Morgoth left upon him. Bound by past wounds and an uncertain future, they must confront their shared fates, questioning whether true redemption and peace can ever be achieved between light and shadow.

    -----

    “I think you should let me die, Galadriel.” He continued, even as her eyes widened in outrage and her mouth opened to stop his words. “Perhaps Manwë will find mercy for what Morgoth has left of me.” That, he knew, was unlikely.

    She stopped short. Her jaw remained open. Perhaps, in another life, free of the ruined stains Morgoth had left on him, he would have found that endearing. For now, Sauron was tired. And scared of the judgment that awaited him. All he had ever wanted was order and a stable world.

    Her voice was hard. “You’re a servant of Morgoth?”

    “I was /the/ servant of Morgoth,” he replied.

    Summary

    “I will be queen,” she had eventually agreed, regardless of her wrath. Her eyes, so violently blue against the gray backdrop of the unsettled sea, had been as cutting as her tone. “But that's the only title I'll take. I shall not be your wife.”

    The distinction had caught him off guard; in the heady rush of her acceptance, he had nearly laughed at the absurdity of it. What need did he have for a wife?

    Summary

    “I’m not hesitating so much as enjoying the last moments of peace I’ll know this morning,” he replied blandly. “You’ll hate what I have to say.”

    Galadriel made a derisive noise in her throat. “And that is such a rare occurrence, after all.”

    The sun broke through a tatter in the clouds to hit upon the waves. Dimmed as his eyesight was in that body, he could still see it spark against the whitecaps, beauty and violence both. “You need to invite me to your room for the night.”
