A Boy, A Girl and A Dog: The Leithian Script — also known as The Leithian Script or simply The Script — is a The Silmarillion fanfic by Philosopher-At-Large that retells Beren and Lúthien, one of the "Great Tales" of J. R. R. Tolkien Legendarium, as if it was a play. The author uses The Silmarillion for the main source, supplementing it with The History of Middle-earth, Unfinished Tales of Númenor and Middle-earth and others.After the Battle of Sudden Flame, Morgoth is gradually trouncing Beleriand’s elven kingdoms and their allies. The Men of Dorthonion — a fiefdom of Kingdom of Nargothrond — fight for their lands but all except Beren, son of the lord of Dorthonion, are murdered. For several years Beren leads a life of outlaw and guerrilla fighter, harassing the armies of Sauron as much as possible. Eventually he is forced to flee from his homeland, and after a grueling, nightmarish journey, he reaches the Kingdom of Doriath. There he meets Luthien, Princess of Doriath, and they fall in love with each other.Unfortunately King Elu Thingol thinks that nobody is good enough for his cherished girl, and has got prophetic dreams where humans brought disaster to his kingdom. So he is not delighted to hear that his daughter wants to get married to an outlaw mortal warrior, and he tasks Beren to perform an impossible and suicidal feat, expecting him to give up and go away or try and get killed.Instead, he ends up setting in motion events that would change the history of Middle-Earth forever and would be recorded in legends and song.The Leithian Script is noteworthy for the HUGE amount of investigation and thought put on it. The story is complete, though the author's notes for Act IV are only partial.The story can be found complete here and on Archive Of Our Own. The first chapters are stored in FF.net and several more archives.The author also wrote several spin-offs, narrating in greater detail and in prose some parts of the Lay: Hunting (Beren and Shelob's meeting), Terrible Gifts, Betrayals, Renunciations (Finrod and his men's stay in the Wizard's Isle), Shadow and Silver (Luthien and Huan defeat Sauron), Fell Knowledge (Beren and Luthien travel to Angband). These fics are also available on Archive of Our Own.

Prayer of Malice: As talking to Beren and Luthien, Tulkas tells them he has been somewhat keeping abreast of their (mis)adventures since Luthien's father started begging him to smite his daughter's fiancé several times a day. Outraged, Luthien demands to know whether Tulkas hurt Beren, and the god replies of course he did not.

Tempting Fate: Thingol should really have known better... Finrod says that “It's a good thing the Enemy hasn't managed to construct any creatures capable of matching an Eagle for flying capability� since it means Gondolin is safe. Years later Morgoth invaded Gondolin using flying war machines. And one century later he had upgraded his dragons to flying beasts. Before leaving for Nargothrond Beren asks Luthien if she will be all right. Luthien replies “What are they going to do? Lock me up in my room? I'm not a child of ninety.� After scare a group of Feanorians away, Finrod guarantees that they will not return to harass them. Needless to say, they did just that.

Underestimating Badassery: Since no one in Nargothrond would help her, Luthien demanded to be released to go to the Isle of Werewolves. Several characters tried to dissuade her, assuring that she could do nothing alone against Sauron. Then she fled and brought the fortress down. Morgoth thought that the daughter of Thingol and Melian could not possibly be a threat. Five minutes later he had been humiliated in a way nobody has ever done, and he was missing one Silmaril. Celegorm and Curufin thought that Beren was a weak, insignificant mortal and they could beat him easily. Then Beren brought Curufin AND HIS HORSE down and almost killed him with his bare hands. Curufin only survived because Luthien spared his life.

comment
Reformed, but Rejected: Played with. In the back-story provided in the fic, Edrahil used to be an arrogant, conceited, self-centred bard. During the Crossing and the wars in Beleriand he realized his flaws and became humbler and less prone to gloat. When he returned to Aman, though, Finrod's fiancée and relatives had a hard work believing that he had changed. Edrahil's ex-girlfriend particularly does not know if she can trust him again after several decades of emotional abuse.

comment
Royals Who Actually Do Something: Reinforced and discussed constantly. The characters often bring up, debate and examine the responsibilities and duties that kingship and lordship brings, and which is the right way to be a good ruler. The main message is: you must show your worth and trustworthiness as a leader so people trust you and can rely on you.

Good Is Not Nice
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_21f3aa44
comment
Good Is Not Nice: This trope applies to several Valar. It always is justified. Orome was bad-tempered and snarky most of the time, and he was very harsh on Beren. His moodiness and frustration were due to several causes: the Eldar’s untrue and hurtful accusations (he offered to guide them to Aman because he genuinely cared for them. Many of them freely chose to follow him and the rest freely chose to remain in Middle-earth. Later the former group accused the Valar of leading them into a jail where they could be easily controlled, and the latter group accused them of abandoning them to Morgoth’s creatures); Morgoth winning the War; and Beren — the only person in several centuries who was being pro-active and actually doing SOMETHING against Morgoth — retrieving a Silmaril after overcoming incredible difficulties… and then losing the jewel and getting himself killed. Orome had got his hopes raised... and then broken. Namo comes across like grim, cold and impatient. You would be, too, if your work was judging all crimes on the world and taking care of the dead (including men as they are leaving the Circles of the World). And he has been doing that for millennia! He is also very blunt, but he is not intentionally rude. Osse was a big, angry jerk before AND after his "repentance", but after reforming he was tolerable. And he sincerely loved the Elves.

Knight in Sour Armor: Beren sometimes asks his friends and the gods why they keep fighting, since winning the war seems impossible and everything they manage is being stomped even harder by Morgoth. After talking to Manwe, Varda and Yavanna he realizes that the world is a cause worth to fighting for, even if they lose.

Only Sane Man: That is how Luthien felt in Nargothrond. She could understand that people did not care about two strangers like Beren and herself. But their king had been imprisoned by the enemy, and instead of organizing a rescue expedition they partied, trying to pretend that nothing's wrong! And she had been kidnapped and jailed by a Stalker with a Crush that wanted to force her into marrying him and attempted to rape her, and nobody tried to defend her. Celebrimbor feels he is the only sane man of his family. As a scion of House Feanor, he is actually right:

The Dreaded: Back in Dorthonion, enemy patrols sent out to arrest Beren endeavoured to NOT find him. Nobody wants to fight Tulkas the Wrestler. Not even Morgoth. His brother-in-law Orome the Hunter is also one of the most powerful warriors on Earth, but he favors armed combat whereas Tulkas likes to fight bare-handed.

Violently Protective Girlfriend: Do NOT strike, threaten or even badmouth Beren when Luthien is in the vicinity. You have been warned. Inverted with Beren. As Morgoth talked about Luthien "serving his necessities", Beren was itching to hit him. But he was aware of how well it would work, so he restrained himself and trusted that Luthien knew what she was doing. After their reconciliation, Maiwe warns that she will not tolerate Edrahil being taken by granted again.

Shapeshifter Mode Lock: Due to having wasted his considerable power in petty acts of evil and destruction, Morgoth is forever locked in the shape or “a dark lord, tall and terrible�.

Self-Fulfilling Prophecy
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_30d2ae29
comment
Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Prophetic dreams warned Thingol that mortals would bring ruin to Doriath. So that he tried to get rid of Beren. However, Doriath and his family suffered disgraces (Daeron vanishing, Luthien running away, Carcharoth rampaging, Luthien fading) BECAUSE he tried to get rid of Beren to avert the prophecy. Luthien lampshades it:

Finrod explains to his relatives his theories about how the Powers are just as helpless as the Children in the Song that they helped to make, mortals are fated to unmake the Marring and how the world will be After the End. His family feels pretty confused and troubled by his ideas.

Rank Scales with Asskicking: Fëanor, Fingolfin, Fingon, Finrod, Aegnor… Beren, Barahir, Emeldir the Manhearted, Haleth… All Noldorin princes and Edain chieftains not only are Warrior Princes but also some of the most renowned warriors of its Age. Beleriand is a war-torn land, so a ruler MUST know fight to be able to keep his/her people alive. Finarfin might be seen like an exception since he was calm, humble, and preferred to avoid conflict… except that he succeeded where his most prideful and most belligerent relatives failed.

Don't You Dare Pity Me!: Eol is broken but he refuses to be helped. Defied -as befitting a story based on Tolkien's works-. In the backstory, Edrahil didn't like being pitied by his colleague -after Edrahil let slip he considers himself a failure who ruined his relationship with his life's love-, but he accepted the Captain's mercy anyway, and that was the beginning of their friendship.

Properly Paranoid
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_3aec9e5e
comment
Properly Paranoid: Beren believes that he's no longer fit for human society because after years of living like a hunted outlaw he's unable to relax and feel safe. Upon arriving Nargothrond he chides the sentinels for not being paranoid enough, saying that he MIGHT be a spy that murdered the true Beren and stole his ring. One of the nicknames of Morgoth is the Lord of Paranoids. He heard vague rumours about some Elf prince having who-knows-what-designs and Huan maybe being involved in some way, so he raised a giant wolf and put it on the Gates only in case of someone tried to go IN Angband… which is a crazy and suicidal thing to do, therefore unlikely. Subverted. Thingol is pretty paranoid too since people “keep ambushing and betraying and trying to destroy him, his family and his people… and those are his relatives, not the Dark Lord's minions�. So that when an intruder walk through the maze, camps into his woods and seduces his daughter, he feels he has reasons to be distrustful. He was wrong.

Heroes Prefer Swords
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_43555d33
comment
Heroes Prefer Swords: Most heroes in this story use a sword like his primary weapon. Beren he is an excellent swordsman. He carries around a real arsenal with him (daggers, knives, dirks…), but his sword Dagmor is his most notable weapon. It is justified since, like he said himself, a sword and a bow are more practical to a wood-dweller outlaw than an axe (its weight would slow him down) or a spear (it is inconvenient to haul around in rough terrain). Fingolfin used a sword to fight Morgoth. He named it Ringiltranslation Cold-star. Averted with the Sindarin Ranger. He is a great bowman, but he is not good with swords.

Becoming the Mask: Discussed. Luthien explained how Beren and she disguised themselves with the pelts of the werewolf Draugluin and the vampire Thuringwethil and traveled northwards. Her father's ambassador was concerned with the effect it might have on their minds, and Luthien admitted that sometimes she had urges afterwards, some of them weird — such as clicking and hiding in corners — and some of them plainly disturbing — like drinking blood of babies — but they were easily controllable and had almost fully faded for now.

But when they ran into an immortal, shape-shifting, powerful spirit that not only is older than the universe but also helped to create it, they were completely outmatched. They were captured, jailed and tortured, and Luthien had to rescue them. Unfortunately she's too late to save all but Beren.

Rebuilt Pedestal: During an argument with the Valar, Beren complains that he and his clan lost everything while fighting Morgoth in the gods' behalf. After a conversation with Manwe, Varda and his patron goddess Yavanna, though, Beren comes to the understanding that the Valar really want and try to do right for everyone. Nonetheless, they aren't perfect, so they're wont to make mistakes and then struggle to fix them... the same as his folks back home and even himself. Beren decides he can't stay angry after that revelation.

Broke Your Arm Punching Out Cthulhu: Averted when Beren shot an arrow at Sauron during his outlaw days in Dorthonion and he survived because the land protected him. Played straight when he used the Silmarils' light to try to scare Carcharoth away and the Wolf chew his hand off. Later he faced Carcharoth again, and he was mauled. Fingolfin fought his world’s God of Evil, and he was stomped. Literally.

Fantastic Racism
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_57b80b45
comment
Fantastic Racism: In the Tolkien's Legendarium racism is one of the tools Morgoth uses to sow hatred, suspicion and fear between the Children in order to destroy them. So there are plenty of cases: A Feanorian apologizes to Maiwe for getting her mixed with a Dark Elf but thinks nothing of killing her. Aredhel’s opinion about mortals: “But, objectively —what's so special about them? From what everybody says, they're essentially talking kelvar translation animals that look a bit like us—â€� In Nargothrond, a couple meets Beren, and they treat him like if he was a fascinating animal specimen. The woman even exclaims that “He looks almost like a personâ€�. Noldor elves often think that Teleri are inferior because they only build ships. Evidently, Teleri are not happy about it. On the other hand, Teleri often are best singers and they rub it in. Evidently, Noldor are not happy about it. Sindar elves are also sick of being considered god-forsaking barbarians only because they turned from the March. A Feanor follower gloated that he was the second casualty in the war. Apparently all were supposed to accept his assumption that Grey and Green elves casualties did not count. Another Feanorian thought that Light elves were clearly different of Dark elves. Then he thought that The Captain was a Sinda.

World's Strongest Man
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_5d9bdbb1
comment
World's Strongest Man: High King Fingolfin is the greatest elven warrior. When Fingolfin broke the siege, he rode through plains overridden with enemies and everyone was so frightened of him they stood out of his way. He hammered the Gates of Angband and challenged Morgoth, and Morgoth — the most powerful being that had walked Middle-earth — was afraid of him. They fought, and Fingolfin hurt him several times. Even the Valar were awed.

Savage Wolves
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_603b77ec
comment
Savage Wolves: In this setting there are regular, rarely dangerous wolves… and wargs, packs of monstrous, blood-thirsty, man-eating, intelligent wolves at the service of Morgoth (and Sauron, the Lord of Wolves). Orcs use them by way of horses. It is implied that they are evil Maiar that possessed bodies of regular wolves and twisted them. Draugluin, the Father of Wevewolves, ate Finrod’s men. Finrod fought him and killed him with his bare hands. Carcharoth, Draugluin’s most dangerous offspring, is a ravenous, ferocious, black-furred wolf as big as an aurochs or a buffalo. Its name means “Red Maw�.

Maligned Mixed Marriage: Luthien heard many people in Nargothrond talking against her and Beren’s relationship. Finduilas argued about their age differences, different backgrounds, Beren’s mortality… and questioned whether they ever would be able to beget children. Angrod and Aegnor were when they found out that Beren and Luthien finally got married. However it is due to they blamed Finrod’s death on Beren rather bigotry.

Giant Flyer: Two kinds of eagles exist in Middle-Earth: ordinary eagles… and Manwë's eagles. They are Manwë’s Maiar servants in eagle shape, large enough to carry one or several people. Thorondor is the king of the eagles and biggest of them all — his wingspan being 180 feet! — and he and his children (Gwaihir and Landroval) rescued Beren and Luthien from Angband. Morgoth used to hunt eagles and hawks to examine their wings in order to figure out how they worked. The results of his “researchâ€� were mechanized aircrafts and winged dragons.

The Power of Love: A couple struggling for their love’s sake succeeded where vast armies fighting throughout centuries in the name of revenge and hubris failed. Also, Beren stayed in the Halls of Mandos after dying — instead of leaving the World — just because Luthien told him to. Namo notes that he is defying the Laws of the universe by doing that.

Meaningful Name
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_6bda9a30
comment
Meaningful Name: Plenty of characters have one: Luthien’s name means “Enchantressâ€�. Beren named her Tinuviel, “Nightingaleâ€�. In several scenes Luthien demanded being addressed by that name to show to her that acknowledge her bond to Beren, making it even more meaningful. Elves named the Ainur according his or her dominion. So, Manwe was “Blessed Oneâ€�, Varda “Sublimeâ€�, Yavanna “Giver of Fruitsâ€�, Aule “Inventionâ€�… Every elf has a second name called “mother-nameâ€�. It is given by his or her mother and is supposed to say something about the elf. Earwen named Finrod “Ingoldâ€� (Wise) and Galadriel “Nerwenâ€� (Manly maiden). The Men of Beor named Finrod “Nomâ€�. In his language it means “Wisdomâ€�. Beren found very funny that his people named him basically the same thing his mother did. The Captain puns with the name of Maiwetranslation Seagull. Maiwe finds it exasperating ("I was going to rail against you, you know", "Rail? Isn't that a kind of bird?"). Carcharoth's name’s full meaning was long and extremely pompous. Finrod quips about the humility of the “chapâ€� and Luthien reminds him that his name means "Fair-haired hero". So Finrod had to explain to his relatives that people did not translate or pronounce his name like it was done in Aman. Beren asks Yavanna what the Valar's original names were after noticing the names they use were chosen by the elves.

Best for Last: Subverted. In the aftermath of an argument with the Valar, Finrod gives his supporters trinkets as a show of gratitude, saving his estranged fiancée Amarië for last. Unfortunately, because he takes way long to acknowledge her, he unintentionally sends the message that he didn't care for Amarië putting their ongoing feud and her devotion towards the gods aside for his sake. And he did not understand because she got so angry until his friends explained the issue to him.

Parental Marriage Veto: Thingol wishes that he could do that. Fervently. Argued by Fingolfin. He loathes Eol, but Luthien's story convinces him that disapproving of his daughter’s marriage is as meaningless as if he were disapproving of his death. So he decides to welcome Eol in the family, hoping that gesture may lessen the tensions in his daughter’s marriage. Averted with Finarfin. After finding out that his daughter Galadriel was married — much to his shock — he asked what his son-in-law Celeborn was like.

Soapbox Sadie: Amarie loathes all kind of violence and bloodshed. Thus, when the Valar decided that they needed to train an army to guard Aman, and her Vanyarin kin joined the war efforts, she was NOT happy. She had been loudly preaching against it in everywhere, and she even berated the guards of the mountain pass. Finrod found it too funny for words. Beren asked his companions if he had been obnoxious about his vegetarianism. First they denied it, but when he insisted they replied: "All right, you were an annoying twerp. Glad now?"

I Gave My Word: Finrod swore that he would help the kin of Barahir if they asked help. When he had to choose between keeping the kingship of Nargothrond and helping the son of Barahir, he chose the latter, and he protected Beren with his life. Beren’s companions asked him why he and Luthien did not elope after their reunion. He stubbornly insisted on that he had given his word. Luthien let Sauron go because she promised releasing him if he gave her the keys of his stronghold. Her relatives questioned the wisdom of it, but she replied: “I couldn't have broken my word — well, obviously I could, but — even my father kept his word to me, that he wouldn't kill or imprison Beren, after all. My family is the law in central Beleriand, from the beginning of Time. I have a duty to live up to.â€� Inverted once (or is it reinforced?). Thingol asked Luthien promising him that she would not go after Beren, and Luthien refused to make that promise because she would be unable to not break it.

Shell-Shocked Veteran: After ten years of fighting the Sauron’s armies, living in the woodlands like an outlaw with no contact with other human beings and devoted to hunting fell creatures, and traveling through steep mountains and monster-infested valleys, Beren had lost his humanity and his sanity almost completely. He was barely capable to talk when Luthien met him. She helped him to heal considerably, but Beren thought he stopped belonging to the world of Men after his father’s death.

Success Through Insanity: Although the Captain is a big offender, Finrod is even worse. In one scene one of his brothers says that the Valar are constantly making exceptions for him. Finrod disagrees and explains that he does things nobody else thought possible, and then he leaves the work of figuring it out to the gods. And in other scene Aegnor complains Finrod is explaining to Aüle and Yavanna - the Lord and Lady of Earth - how Earth is made and that is wrong. Elenwe slyly tells him that Finrod STILL has his questions answered, so that she does not believe that he is wrong.

You can refuse answering, you can make claims that you believe are true — even if they are false — but nobody can knowingly lie. Finrod and his followers have several theories about it, for example that souls cannot hide their thoughts since that's all they are now.

The Unfavorite: Subverted. Finarfin did not want to make the same mistakes that his father did, so he tried to love all of his children equally. Still, for all his efforts, his younger sons think that Finrod is his favorite and most loved. Finarfin got quite angry when one of them claimed that he would sacrifice himself for Finrod but not for them. Luthien guessed that Morgoth had slipped that idea into their minds without them realizing.

Bratty Half-Pint: A Beren's memory reveals that ironically his cousin Morwen was one when she was young. She insisted on climbing a birch despite of he warned her that she would fall and break her ankle. When it happened, she cried, banged her head against his the whole way home as he carried her on his back, and then she claimed to her parents he had put a "hex" on her.

comment
Broken Pedestal: The Noldor put their trust on the Valar until they failed in protecting them from Morgoth, unable to prevent him from destroying the Trees and stealing the Silmarils. Similarly, the Valar loved the elves, regarded them as Iluvatar's precious children and would do anything to help them and protect them. And then the Noldor accused them from luring them into a jail to turn them into their pets, slaves and tools, before committing genocide. And just like that, the Sindar stopping trusting on the Noldor after learning about the Kinslaying. Luthien loved and implicitly trusted her parents for her entire — very long — life. After they refused to approve of Beren, Luthien stopped trusting them. Huan was completely devoted to Celegorm. His devotion got shaken by the Kinslaying and Luthien’s captivity, but it was not broken. But then Celegorm and Curufin attempted to murder Beren and Luthien, and Huan cut his ties with Celegorm. Subverted by Finrod. He feels that he has let his mortal subjects and his followers down, but they never turn away from him, not matter how badly and how many times he fails. Argued:

Doing In the Wizard: Invoked. When Finrod met the Men for first time they got him confused with one of the Valar, and he disillusioned them as fast as he was able to. When he reluctantly told the tale to his relatives, Aredhel joked she would have pretended to be Varda for a while. Her aunt Nerdanel asked when she would have STOPPED.

That is how Luthien felt in Nargothrond. She could understand that people did not care about two strangers like Beren and herself. But their king had been imprisoned by the enemy, and instead of organizing a rescue expedition they partied, trying to pretend that nothing's wrong! And she had been kidnapped and jailed by a Stalker with a Crush that wanted to force her into marrying him and attempted to rape her, and nobody tried to defend her.

Ignored Epiphany: Subverted. Lúthien is telling her family her and Beren's history, and she has just gotten to the part where Carcharoth is blocking their path for the second time, Amarië wonders whether Carcharoth wasn't actually grateful, since Lúthien previously magically puts him to sleep, giving him a dream where he was happy, innocent cub instead of the Dark Lord's man-eating slave. Lúthien sadly answers: "I tricked him and humiliated him and made him a slave to my power. — That's how he saw it. No, he wasn't grateful. Why? Did you think he would have recognized me as a friend, and let us go, or even helped us, let me ride him like Huan, or fought against his pack-mates to defend us? He was a Hellhound. That was the life he knew. You didn't really think that the fact that I was able to pity him, would make him able to reciprocate, or change all that?" Later, though, it turns out that being shown mercy by an enemy got Carcharoth so badly confused that he is suffering from an existential crisis, and he might actually be redeemed.

Fingolfin tells that his willingness to give up his immortality in exchange for Beren’s mortality is reckless and impulsive, and his nephew throws the Grinding Ice back at him: A Finrod's follower's nephew took part in the Kingslaying. His uncle angrily told him that if he did not know what was happening, the obvious thing to NOT do was rushing into the fray and killing people.

Big Bad
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_970c790a
comment
Big Bad: Morgoth Bauglir — the Black Enemy — is the God of Evil and the source of all evil in the universe. He is a figure of pure evil with a generous helping of It's All About Me and Never My Fault. Oh, and a wannabe-rapist, too. According Tolkien's writings, Morgoth could have settled with his followers on any other planet in the universe and the Valar would have left him alone... but he knew he could not deceive his Ainur followers in believing he was God, and he thought that the Children of Iluvatar would be more foolish and more gullible (he was supremely disappointed when he found out that was not the case). His big plan, if you could call it that, was conquering the whole Earth so he could pretend he was the owner and creator of the universe before destroying it... precisely because he knows he is neither!

"Not So Different" Remark
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_984ef9ef
comment
"Not So Different" Remark: Finrod mentions that elves cannot interact with the world without changing it… and in that sense they are not unlike Morgoth Bauglir. No one liked that comparison. Luthien explains how Morgoth rants about being a poor, abused victim, and Nerdanel states that it reminds her of Feanor. Later Beren compares himself with Carcharoth: "It's almost like we're the same, in a way — he's his King's hereditary champion, he's the one who guards the way to the realm, the one nobody else could come near to, doing what he was born to, and all because of the Silmarils — and getting killed for it, in the end." The difference, he says, it is that Carcharoth did not choose it.

Beren’s friends noted how stupid it was.

comment
Fighting for a Homeland: The tribe of Beor lived in Dorthonion, the northern marches of Nargothrond, defending it from Morgoth. After the Battle of Sudden Flame, Sauron’s forces invaded and gradually conquered the land, and the power of Morgoth poisoned the whole region, rendering it inhabitable. For ten years the folk of Beor fought a losing battle to take their lands back. Eventually all of them were enslaved or fled the region, and only Barahir, Beren and ten companions kept defying Morgoth’s dominion (although Beren stated that there were other pockets of resistance). Finally only Beren was left alive, but he kept fighting until he had no choice but leaving Dorthonion.

Touch the Intangible: As per canon, souls are intangible. In the Halls of Mandos, living elves who are allowed to wander into can't touch the dead (right like elven shades aren't allowed to affect the embodied ones). Hence, Amarië and Finrod freak out briefly when the former is able to touch her dead husband. Finrod theorizes that it's due to married Elves being soul-bonded to each other.

Not Hyperbole: Luthien mentions Morgoth's vampires have iron claws, and Valinorean elves think that she merely means that their claws are tough, until she explains they're made from actual iron. In the fourth act, Edrahil states three words is all the Captain needs to prove he is crazy. His colleague argues the Steward is exaggerating things since three words can't possibly be enough to give your nuttiness away. The Steward retorts with what the Captain said when they were saved from death's door by the arrival of reinforcements during the Sudden Flame: "Happy New Year".

Hidden Elf Village
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_a971e83c
comment
Hidden Elf Village: Several. In Beleriand, hiding was one of the very few ways to NOT get killed or enslaved by Morgoth. Gondolin. Ruled by Turgon, it was a city hidden inside a valley circled by high mountains in the middle of a vast range. It was nearly inaccessible, and eagles took care that nobody would come near from it. Nargothrond. Finrod’s kingdom capital city was built in an extensive network of underground caves dug by river Narog. The only entrances were built on a rock-wall across a wide river with no bridge. Only Nargothrond elves knew their location and how to reach them, and they constantly kept watch. Doriath: A subversion, since most people knew where it was, but the Girdle of Melian — a not-physical maze of darkness and illusions — made it impossible for anyone to actually enter Doriath without leave (unless that person had a special destiny, like Beren). And Morgoth's gaze could not penetrate the barrier, so Doriath was 'hidden' from him.

comment
Dramatic Irony: A wanderer, upon accidentally meeting a beautiful, strange woman in the woods who belongs to an older and more powerful race, falls in love with her. That sentence describes both Thingol and Beren. Finduilas thinks that is a bad idea for an elf falling in love with a mortal. Several years later she fell in love with mortal warrior Turin.

Fatal Flaw: Pride: This is the main flaw of many characters, even when not the cause of their downfall. The Noldor are especially prone to it. Every time Finrod talked to Amarië, for instance,, he wanted to make up. However his pride always prevented him of apologizing and they ended up repeating the same fights.

comment
Good Cannot Comprehend Evil: Manwe is absolutely unable to understand his brother’s actions and thoughts. Yavanna does not understand Morgoth, either. Tolkien’s essays explicitly told that it was a flaw (although not a sin), since Manwe’s incapacity to understand his brother allowed Morgoth to deceive him by pretending to repent.

Be Careful What You Wish For: Lampshaded when Beren is telling his friends how he hid beneath the Morgoth's throne. He stated that, "when I made that vow that I'd avenge Da if it took me to the Gates of Angband to challenge the Dark Lord himself — that was not the scenario I had in mind". During an argument, Beren demands knowing the reason of the pain and suffering. Namo informs him that he CAN go to Manwë and Varda and ask them, but he warns him that such knowledge can be heavier a burden than a human mind can bear.

Fate Worse than Death: Subverted. Manwe and Varda show to Beren other possible ends to his story: being captured by Sauron and tortured before being fed to wolves… or reaching Hitlum safely, living between humans and marrying a mortal woman. Much to their puzzlement, he finds the latter worse than the former.

Flowery Elizabethan English: The author chose to write the Eldar who never left Valinor speaking Shakesperean English. Notably, to catch the full scope and dissonance of it, there are dialects of it. Finrod's enraged wife regularly shouts in an over formal shade of it, Finarfin speaks a quieter, more restrained and less forced mode, Maiwe hardly uses any, being from a more rural region. Overlaps with Ye Olde Butchered Englishe, and is amazingly well done.

Alien Geometries

comment
Alien Geometries: Angband was erected and designed by Morgoth, and it is built in very weird shapes that make no sense to men or elves. People who has been inside barely can describe the place (beyond vague words such like "ugly", "burnt", "angled" "deep", "rough" and "paths and overpasses winding up and down and you never know what direction you are going towards") or they do NOT want to remember what it is like. The ex-thrall confirms that nothing of its design suggests that it was built by elves, and Luthien said that none of the architecture seemed designed with people in mind at all, but it was actually designed to NOT seem homely. The Halls of Mandos are a minor example. They are an underground network of halls, tunnels and corridors dug under the Western ranges of Aman. The stonework and architectural style is plainly different of anything built by men, walls and rooms can be rearranged with enough will force and distance and direction work in strange ways, but at last you can understand the designs.

Shrouded in Myth: Beren waged a ten-year-long one-man rebellion against Morgoth's forces overrunning his homeland. His heroic deeds generated countless stories whose veracity can't be assessed because, albeit all of them can't be true, the most unbelievable ones are actually accurate. One of the soldiers of Nargothrond becomes a little nonplussed by it: Several human generations ago, Edrahil gave a domestic abuser a lesson by challenging him to a musical contest, after which he offered the harpist's wife to take her away from her emotionally abusive husband. Somehow that event gave birth to dozens of folk songs narrating a rather distorted tale of an Elf whose singing magic seduced women away from their families.

Happily Married: Played straight: Manwë and Varda, Aulë and Yavanna, Orome and Vana... the Valar have been married since the beginning of time (and somehow they manage to not argue the whole time). Tulkas and Nessa are the patron deities of married couples. Thingol and Melian had been married for several millennia before the start of the story. Beren and Luthien in the future. They were already getting over their issues during the last chapters. Elenwe stressed that Turgon and she were happy together and dealt each other like equals. Averted or Subverted: Aredhel and Eol. Their relationship is completely dysfunctional and self-destructive, and is making both of them miserable. Luthien called them out on it several times. Feanor and Nerdanel. They had been happy for a while — and Feanor ACTUALLY listened to her! — but Feanor's bad temper, hubris and arrogance got worse, and his wife’s friendship with Indis disgusted him. Their marriage got colder, and when Feanor left for Formenos, she did not go with him.

Mind Screw: Beren needs a drink. Trying to be helpful, The Captain manifests a flask full of wine… And Beren completely freaks out. How can anyone give him an imaginary drink that is not real? And how can he drink it if it's someone else’s imagination?: Finrod explains to his relatives his theories about how the Powers are just as helpless as the Children in the Song that they helped to make, mortals are fated to unmake the Marring and how the world will be After the End. His family feels pretty confused and troubled by his ideas. Finrod also theorizes — although he does not find it likely — that the Halls are not real in the physical sense but they are an illusionary environment to house the discorporate folk until they are ready to leave. His relatives find that theory even more disturbing that the former one.

Insane Troll Logic: As much as she loves Beren, Luthien thinks that some of their arguments were downright crazy, and she would not call someone who says "I have to go and get myself killed or your father will never approve of me" sane. The Feanor following also counts. The Captain hits them because he has not patience for showing them that they are being inconsistent. Morgoth is the worst offender. Luthien described at length how he thinks. Among other things he is resentful of everyone is plotting against him AND nobody pays attention to him and it never occurs to him that both rule each other out. He is the First Deceiver and still he has the gal of telling that the Children are liars. Nerdanel felt that description fits her husband as well. Most people in Mandos has agreed that Feanor lives in a world of his own fabrication that has very little to do with the real one.

Grand Theft Me: Houseless Elves are elves that have faded or died and remain in Middle-Earth instead of answering the summons of Namo. The later ones are very dangerous because they are full of fury and bitterness and steal bodies, murdering the owner. Finarfin and other Amanyar elves think they are only old legends of the Old Country… until Finrod tells them otherwise.

Never Be Hurt Again: Maiwe did not want to give another chance to her formerly verbally abusive boyfriend, refusing believing that Edrahil had changed during the war and was a different person now and having sworn that she wouldn't be hurt again. Beren warned her that attitude may end up hurting her anyway.

comment
The Chains of Commanding: For several centuries Finrod had to be calm, rational, responsible and level-headed to hold himself together, hold his kingdom together, hold the League against Morgoth together, mediate between his short-tempered relatives, compatriots and all free people in the sub-continent and take care of his subjects. And he often had to deal people like pawns to achieve some greater good. He was so sick and distressed that when he finally got killed he actually found the Afterlife relaxing.

Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Beren once shot an arrow at Sauron, Lord of Wolves and older-than-the-world fallen angel. Luthien managed to charm Morgoth, God of Evil. And Beren accidentally hurt his forehead. Finrod killed a werewolf with his bare hands. Fingolfin's duel again Morgoth is mentioned.

Hypercompetent Sidekick: Finrod's followers earned notoriety in the Halls for being a crazy, unruly lot. However, they are all extremely competent and Finrod has absolute trust in them. He stated to his father that he bestowed his trust on those who proved themselves trustworthy, and authority on those who showed themselves fit to wield it. And he does not care if they are not the most easy-tempered of Elves.

Cassandra Truth: Finrod suffered of this trope constantly. He feels pretty grouchy about people ignoring his predictions despite of his high rate of success. Through foresight, he saw his uncle lying dead under Morgoth's foot. He warned him, but Fingolfin brushed him off, stating that foresight is unreliable and future is ever-changing. He told his sister Galadriel that he had foreseen his own death ("nor shall anything of my realm endure that a son should inherit"). His siblings were alarmed, but they did not want to believe him.

Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": Out of the ten companions that followed Finrod and Beren, Edrahil is the only named. The rest of them are called Captain, Warrior, Ranger… Several other characters have no names: Formenos's Seneschal, Doriath Ambassador… Gandalf and Saruman appear, but they are called Nienna’s Apprentice and Aule’s Assistant respectively. Somewhat subverted in that their names are mentioned, usually by their peers. The Ex-Thrall is a tragic example. She is so broken and ashamed of her past that she does not dare reclaim her name.

comment
The Good King: A central theme in this The Silmarillion fanfic. The main characters often discuss the nature of kingship and the qualities required for being a good king, lord of leader. During one of those discussions, Fingolfing, High King of Noldor, states a good king needs to make sacrifices for their people, since without people there can't be any king. Poor parental skills aside, Elu Thingol is a very hands-off monarch whose authority is unquestioned because he lets his subjects do as they please, as long as they aren't harming each other. Finrod is King of Nargothrond. He cares for his people and works hard to provide food and shelter for all of them. Finarfin never wanted or expected to be crowned king, but he is very benevolent, he's willing to acknowledge his mistakes, and he tries to rule the Noldor with fairness and wisdom. His brother Fingolfin has admitted that his little brother was better king than him.

comment
Despair Event Horizon: After being released from Sauron's cells, many elves were so broken and weary that they found freedom sadly lacking, so they faded and traveled to the Halls of the Dead. Listening to the story of Aegnor and his grand-aunt Andreth Beren was the last straw for Beren, and he nearly faded. Edrahil summarized it most efficiently. Finrod died and went to the Halls thinking that Beren would be tortured and killed as a result of his mistakes. He was so shattered that he was barely substantial and he would talk to nobody. After rescuing her lover from all dangers, going to literal Hell and coming back alive, gaining her father's approval and getting married, Beren gets killed by Carcharoth. All Luthien wanted after that was to die and follow him. It is also discussed by Fingolfin, his daughter, daughter-in-law and Maiwe.

Giant Spiders: Between Dorthonion and Doriath lays a mountain range called Ered Gorgorothtranslation Mountains of Terror, and to the south of that range an unpopulated valley called Nan Durgothebtranslation the Valley of Dreadful Death. The entire region was infested with giant spiders. Ungoliant — the giant spider that exuded no-light (a nearly physical darkness no light could pierce) and ate the world’s source of light — lived there temporarily, breeding with them. Later the powers of Morgoth and Melian clashed in that area, mutating those creatures into even more horrible beasts.

Hero Killer: Balrogs. Their name means "Demon of Might". They are essentially fallen angels/evil spirits of fire and shadow, armed with a blazing sword and a whip. The elite of the elite of Morgoth, they killed Feanor and are supremely feared by all free peoples of Middle-Earth. Like one of the men of Finrod put: "One Balrog is too much. At a distance." Glaurung, Father of the dragons. He is a massive, four-legged, fire-breathing serpent with an impervious scaly hide, and he is full of intelligence, malice and sorcery. Glaurung single-handedly broke the Angband siege, set Ard-Galen and vast armies afire, and his fire burnt Angrod and Aegnor to death. No Middle-Earth warrior would want to meet him, unless his bravery was larger than his common sense (coughTurincough). Carcharoth, the biggest wolf ever, rampaged through Beleriand decimating armies, killing thousands of people, nearly killed Thingol and killed Beren — one of the biggest heroes of the Age — and Huan — a dog-shaped Maia who was trained by Orome.

Calling the Old Man Out: Celebrimbor continuously called his father out on everything that he did — genocide, kidnapping, conspiring against his own relatives, help his brother to force a woman into marriage (which according to elven laws is a form of rape) — but Curufin never listened. Finally Celebrimbor got fed up with it and disowned his own father. Subverted with Finrod and Finarfin. Before parting ways they had a very long, heated argument during which they got mad at each other and both started flinging insults and accusations. Later Finrod regretted it, because his father had done nothing to deserve this treatment (and Finarfin rued his own words, as well). Their relationship got uneasy for a while until they finally talked about it and apologized to each other.

Geas: Subverted. A long time ago, a harpist and his flutist wife were hired to entertain Finrod and his retinue, but the way the man was constantly putting his wife down was getting on everybody's nerves...until Finrod's steward Edrahil ran out of patience, challenged him to a music duel and won. Edrahil then said he will take the bard's voice, and the man will only regain it if he performs a very specific task (which incidentally will force him to treat his wife respectfully). Several centuries later, as his friends are recounting the story, Edrahil finds out that everybody thought he had put a geas on the bard, and he replies he did nothing of the sort. He just realized he was dealing with a gullible idiot.

Star-Crossed Lovers

comment
Star-Crossed Lovers: Aegnor and Andreth. Their relationship might have faced political complications (Aegnor was a prince of Nargothrond and she was a member of one of the ruling houses of the realm), but the biggest obstacle was that he was an immortal elf and she was a mortal doomed to get old, die and leave the world forever. Aegnor got scared of it and ran away before their relationship went very far. Now he is dead and refuses reincarnation because he will not find her outside of Mandos. Beren and Luthien could have been another example. But they stubbornly clung to each other and refused let go until the universe finally got tired of throwing obstacles at them.

Battle Aura: Ainur and Elves have auras, although they usually are invisible to human eyes. After meeting Melian Beren noticed that she glowed. One of the men of Finrod was frightened when he saw his king’s battle aura in the dungeons of Tol-In-Gaurhoth, and he though Luthien's battle aura had to be even greater than Fingolfin’s. When Namo got angry, a dark thundercloud wrapped him.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Vairë the Weaver had NEVER lost her temper… still Finrod managed to get her angry. When she stormed into the Halls screaming "FINROD INGOLD FINARFINION WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY HOME?", most of all prudent souls chose that moment to fade out of sight. Beren also managed to make Lord Namo laugh out loud… something that “had never happened in all of Time since the Beginning�. Everyone was astonished. When Finrod finally got fed up with Aegnor's behaviour and berated him angrily, all got shocked and appalled. Edrahil stated that was the fourth time that Finrod had lost his temper in several CENTURIES. Later Namo makes a bad joke. Everyone stares at him in silence. Vaire told that him making a joke was unpreceded.

Freudian Slip: In one scene the Captain tried to dissuade Aredhel from picking a fight with Nienna's Apprentice (Gandalf), reminding her that she has no experience fighting armed opponents. She angrily replied that she is not a kinslayer. The Captain retorted he meant the giant spiders of Nan Dungortheb, but he found interesting that she assumed that he was talking about the Kinslaying.

Exact Words: Beren swore that his hand would hold a Silmaril the next time Thingol saw him. When they met again, Beren's hand was inside of the stomach of the Wolf of Angband… but it WAS holding a Silmaril, so that he fulfilled his vow. Before leaving, Beren ordered Huan to stay with Luthien. So that Huan carried Luthien on his back when they went after Beren. Finrod promised Vairë that he'd not move the walls again. When he threatens with doing it anyway…

Oh, My Gods!: Men, Elves and Ainur usually don't mention The One when they swear. "By Nienna's — or Pity's — sake" is popular. Thingol once exclaimed "So Tulkas help me". Other curses are "Star and Water", “Starless nightâ€�, "Grinding Ice" or "By the Gloomweaver" (the latter one refers to Ungoliant and you better do not use it when Vairë is in the vicinity). Gandalf uses “Threnodyâ€� or “Discordâ€�.

Dude, Where's My Respect?: Beren was one of the greatest heroes of an Age packed with them. He relentlessly fought Morgoth despite losing his tribe, his home and his father. He took a Silmaril from Morgoth and lived to tell the tale. Still he was treated by most like a trespasser with no right to exist. It was heart-warming when Finrod or High King Fingolfin praised him.

Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Her bond with Beren helped Luthien during her duel with Morgoth. His love was a lifeline that grounded her and kept her from forgetting herself and getting entangled in her own charm. At the same time, it was something Morgoth could not pierce or understand, because he could not comprehend that someone challenged him out of love and selflessness instead of pride, revenge or fury.

Shapeshifting
 A Boy, a Girl and a Dog: The Leithian Script (Fanfic) / int_f8f3711c
comment
Shapeshifting: Ainur are spirits who originally had no physical bodies. Physical shapes are like clothes to them, so they can transform into whatever they want: humanoids, trees (Yavanna often appears as a massive beech), animals… even gusts of wind, sea waves, blazes or billows of smoke. Curiously, many of them choose resembling people most of time because “it is funny� (or in the Melian’s case, because she has chosen to live among elves, so she must be like one). There is only one exception… Shapeshifter Mode Lock: Due to having wasted his considerable power in petty acts of evil and destruction, Morgoth is forever locked in the shape or “a dark lord, tall and terrible�.

Nobody listened to her. When they heard the story, Finrod and his followers thought that the Nargothrond population was Too Dumb to Live.
