FOR ARWEN

He would always be haunted by the memories of her. There was no place in all of Eru’s creation that he would not hear her voice or see her face. She had been his sun and his moon for all these many years. Though she was far away, he’d known when her voice stopped, when her light went out. There would never, in the rest of time, be a joy that was not tempered by her absence, by her loss.

He tossed a pebble in the sea as he gazed toward the east, toward Arda.

“Goodbye, my child. Rest well.”

A GRIMM TOAST


“So what are you thankful for, Nick?” Monroe asked as each person around their little table said what they were most thankful for in the previous year.

Nick looked startled and didn’t answer for a long moment. “I am thankful for being a Grimm.”

Since at least half of the people at the table were Wesen, they all groaned aloud.

“Why, for goodness sake?” Monroe asked him.

“Before I knew who I was, I had no idea that people like you existed and now that I do, I can’t imagine how dull life would be without a blutbad and a fuchsbau to hang out with.”

“You do know you’re supposed to hunt people like us?” Rosalee asked as she passed a bowl to Monroe.

“Well, you’re supposed to eat people like me, so we’re even.”

“Indeed we are,” Monroe raised his glass. “To progress and peace.”

They all toasted that.
