drabblechallengeTitle: Anfauglith
Author: Zdenka
Fandom: The Silmarillion - J.R.R. Tolkien
Characters: Rían
Category: gen/implied het
Rating: G
Warnings: referenced character death
Summary: Rían crosses the Anfauglith, lands destroyed by Morgoth, to find the place where her husband is buried.
Puffs of dust rose up with every footstep as Rían walked. The dust caked her hair and clothing; her throat was dry and her lips cracked with thirst. Once this was a plain of lush grass, they said, where the High King’s horses roamed in a thunder of hoofbeats. But it was only a story to her; this land had burned when she was a young child.
At last she saw it: one spot of bright green in the dry lands. Rían stumbled toward it and fell to her knees on the green mound. “Huor,” she whispered. “I am here.”
