    Summary

    "I came for you. I killed for you. I would have killed you, at your command.”

    Maedhros leaned down, his mouth ghosting against the curve of Fingon’s right ear. “That was love. I would have your loyalty, also. For you did not obey me, in the last. Are you not my knight? Did I not give you this gift of the very armor you wear now?”


    The rift between their houses is not yet mended. Something else is needed.

    Summary

    "Maedhros sought destruction body and spirit, and found both. When Mandos summoned him, he refused, and first of them all he has been taken by the void that they swore themselves to. He is not in the world, and will not come again. Deeper darknesses are there than that which Morgoth made below Thangorodrim!” Fingon paused and looked at Finrod. “Should I not then have killed him as he asked me?”

    “No!” said Finrod, but Turgon said nothing.

    Sam grew even more upset. “Now that’s not right,” he said, “that can’t be right! Just or not – and I don’t know that it is, begging your pardon, sir – still, no story should end that way!”

    Summary

    Snape has been sentenced to ten years hard labour for his actions in the war, but either Hogwarts itself has other ideas, or someone is trying to cause trouble. An elf has died and other lives are threatened. Snape has to solve the mystery to regain his freedom (or as much freedom as he is likely to get.)
