[Watching them, he judged all, for their days were numbered. More so than they thought. A day was coming when they would bow.] #TolkienBall

[Melkor was rising from the depths and would claim his crown as the one true god. At that thought, he smiled to himself.] #TolkienBall

[Perhaps this was a good party after all. Lifting his mourning veil, he stood aside, watching them and smirking, joyful.] #TolkienBall

[A deep love could bloom like a solitary flower, even in darkness. It was all he had tended when he had been caught in Eru's net.]

[Each note of the music was jarring to him because they had removed the only part that made it worthwhile to listen to.]

[On and on it went, a cruel torture, a reminder of absense where his Lord and Master was not. Death beyond death was horror unmade.]

[The Void had held him tight as a vice with no way back but a disfigured spirit of an All Seeing Eye. Then that was ripped apart also.]

[Less than Elves but more than Men, all he had was a visage. It was the only part of him that endured & as he was destroyed, he was remade.]

[Hidden in the hills beside Dol Amroth, he had plotted long and hard. Using his magic, he manipulated the weather to his will.]

[Beneath those hills were many devices he had concocted in his time observing. Then he appeared as a traveller with amnesia.]

[The rest was history, along with the people of Dol Amroth. To have witnesses was to be defeated before purpose.]

[Annatar tasted the frost upon his tongue before it had even taken shape. Darkness shifted its cloak about the sky and came in.]

[Staring out into the gloom, he watched snowflakes begin to fall softly and a Man took shape before his eyes, returning from his walk.]

[Lifting his right hand, he called out to the King] Aragorn, son of Arathorn! King of Gondor and Arnor, the Reunited Kingdoms! Aragorn Elessar

[Watching him with amusement, he was impressed, wondering what the idiot King had said to convince Aragorn to trust him.] >> Aragorn Elessar

Allow me. [He went to the door and opened it for Aragorn.] You must be freezing! Aragorn Elessar

"Eru..." Annatar husked beneath his hooded gown, cursing the name as it left his tongue.

"Master does not shriek effeminately, Master gives battlecries which hang upon the wind and pierce the soul." He growled.

|| Hmmm :/
