The story that goes with the last three manips, for those who are interested to know what situations they were inspired by.
-> The story was nominated for the MOME-Awards in the General Long Fiction - Tolkien category! Cool, I never thought I'd get nominated for such a thing ^_^

Comment: I made up the parts that were not in the movies and the time after them; oh, and I didn't kill Háma, I needed him to live. I thank Meri for her permission to use an idea of hers that I can't explain here without telling you too much. This is my first Lotr fanfic, so please be gentle with me. Just to help, there is a key to the Elvish words at the end of the story (Part 7).
Summary: Take it Haldir did neither die nor get seriously injured in the Battle of Helm's Deep and joined the Men of Rohan with his Elven archers for the battle for Gondor. In Éomer, he finds a leader equally strong headed as he is himself.
Okay, so my webspace shut down and I don't have new webspace yet, so I had to improvise. Lj doesn't do really long posts (such as the 58.600 words of this story XD), so I had to split it in Lj-compatible parts. These are NOT parts according to content, the story is not meant to be read in parts, I created them only due to the word limit of Lj. In this post you'll find the links to all seven parts, just to make it easier for you to find them (I arranged it so that when you're on the entry of a part, clicking "next entry" on top of th page will bring you to the following part). Oh, and the story is at my beta at the moment, so this is still the unbeta'ed version (the beta might still take a while, so I hope you can live with this one for now ^_^). Well then, enough of my rambling. Enjoy!
