luin77, who asked for a story using this prompt:
When I look back
I see the landscape
That I have walked through
But it is different.
All the great trees are gone.
It seems there are
Remnants of them
But it is the afterglow
Inside of you
Of all those you met
Who meant something in your life
Summary: Oropher has come here to Barad-Dur and the end of all things.
~~
ENCROACHING DARKNESS
Oropher remembered what the forests looked like before the darkness stunted and deformed them. The trees had been tall and majestic, guarded by the Ents since time out of mind. He remembered when the waters ran clear and cool. It seemed like more than one lifetime ago now. It seemed almost like a forgotten dream.
He remembered when he had come to the Greenwood from the ruins of Doriath and started a new life with his wife and a band of elves who wanted the same things he did. He had given shelter to them, both Sylvan and Sindarin elves and they had named him King.
Now it was all in jeopardy. Darkness was poised to destroy them all, the old evil from before time. And it wanted to destroy all the free people of Middle Earth. But the evil could not be allowed to prevail, no matter the cost.
