Summary
The Queen of Encrypts returns in golden splendour, causing a rapid shift of paradigms among the Hive. The balance of power tipped yet again, old broods break apart and their members disperse between the armies of Savathûn and her warmongering sister.
After his last sibling’s death, there is nothing holding Dornuk in the Scarlet Swarm anymore, and he flees the hunger and despair of the Hellmouth to seek refuge among the Radiant Queen’s ranks. But not all is roses for the Lucent Brood: besides the electric chaos of a rapidly-forming swarm, Guardians are in close pursuit, and as eager as Savathûn is to chart a new path for the Hive, even she is aware of just how hard old habits die.

this violent ritual by Ryellee, VeritysBrow
Fandom Destiny (Video Games), Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
15 Jun 2026
Summary
What is this violent ritual? These tales of suffering, where all ends in a feast of maggots and rot laid on a wormwood table for gods to feast on misery?
Life and death and life and death and life and death are locked in a battle that never ends. The cycle is the same. The pain is the same.
In the end, only sorrow remains.
(A collection of my Hive and Hive-adjacent fics. Sorted chronologically. The summary is fragments of the Books of Sorrow introductory poem by Seth Dickinson.)

The Time of Calamities by MordorIsCalling

Summary
“The dragon still did a lot of damage, didn’t it?” he says. “Burned everything.”
Elrond sighs, with resignation that Bilbo detects without looking at him. “Yes. The forests on the Mountain, the fields around Dale, and the city itself have been burned. Many people have lost their lives, and those who survived have nothing.”
Is that not familiar as well, Bilbo muses bitterly. “But Gandalf is there to help them,” he says and wishes he could have said the same about his own people and land. “So it all should be well.”
Elrond does not reply. His silence lasts long enough for Bilbo to understand it.
Or,
In which Bilbo, after losing his home, many neighbours and family in a catastrophic flood, travels East in hopes of helping the survivors of dragon fire... and ends up losing his heart as well. To the King of Erebor, no less.

Summary
Gimli, freshly-wakened, was lying with his head propped on one hand, his blanket at his waist. And he said, his voice morning-hoarse, "If my memory doesn't fail me, we'll be reaching the River Limlight soon. I'd dearly love a wash."
Legolas's heart seized and tightened. The Limlight was in the very north of the forest, and once across it, they would emerge from their easy wandering, cracking out of the chrysalis to the pain of the open air. No more Fangorn, no more careless peace, no more Gimli at dawn stretching his muscles limber and grumbling about the wear of a bootsole.
And all the future losses lined themselves up.

An Inconvenient Love (Or What Happened After the After) by Lumeleo

Summary
Thorin may be stubborn, but Dáin is even worse. After all, Thorin never tried to break down the barriers between the Halls of Waiting and the Undying Lands simply by beating his head on the nearest wall. Thorin has a plan, thank you very much, one he and Narvi have been working on for ages, and things would really be much easier if Dáin didn't insist on constantly drawing attention to the fact that he very much misses a certain prissy woodland sprite.
Of course, for all that Thorin and Narvi's plan might be superior, there is always the possibility that Kíli might be the smartest of them, or at least the most persistent. Really, Mahal shouldn't have made Durin's Line quite so insistent in their love if he didn't want to get nagged into opening doors here and there.
Legolas and Gimli might think this is all just nonsense, but it's not like they have much of a choice except deal with it all, anyway.
