The Blue Wizards
Tumblr media
Only two came forward; Curumo and Alatar... and Alatar took Pallando as a friend
J.R.R Tolkien
Alatar really is the embodiment of that one friend who thinks going on a field trip in the middle of nowhere where you have never been before is a good idea.
It will be fun he said.
Alatar: Such fun we´re having!!
Pallando: Hmm...
Alatar: No?

Even as the first shadows were felt in Mirkwood there appeared in the west of Middle-earth the Istari, whom Men called the Wizards. In the likeness of Men they appeared, old but vigorous, and they changed little with the years, and aged but slowly, though great cares lay on them; great wisdom they had, and many powers of mind and hand.

@tolkienofcolourweek day one | ainur | the blue wizards
Their task was to circumvent Sauron: to bring help to the few tribes of Men that had rebelled from Melkor-worship, to stir up rebellion and after his first fall to search out his hiding (in which they failed) and to cause dissension and disarray among the dark East... They must have had very great influence on the history of the Second Age and Third Age in weakening and disarraying the forces of East who would both in the Second Age and Third Age otherwise have outnumbered the West.

"The Blue Wizards: Underrated Heroes of The Middle Earth" series: art 1: The Path. Alatar Morinehtar (ahead) and Pallando Romestamo. It's said Gandalf looked older than other Istari, so I never imagined them totally grayhaired and all... Hope you like my interpretation. <3

Tolkien OC Week: Day 4 Forgotten Characters. Not exactly forgotten, but Tolkien ignored these dudes enough in LOTR they might as well be. I suspect they were already killed by the events of LOTR since being missionaries and revolutionaries can be a dangerous job. RIP blue wizards.
I think Pallando is the guy on the left and Alatar is the guy on the right because the guy on the left has a very friendly expression while the guy on the right is more solemn. The guy on the left just seems like the friendly friend you need for a mission. But interpret it how you want. I don't really care who's who. Their appearances were inspired by how I imagine Easterlings and Haradrim would look. So central Asian (with a Vietnamese hat because I saw it on fan art and I liked it) and Persian.
Because I waited so long between drying layers I barely got this in before midnight.

✧˖° Day 5: Travel | the Blue Wizards (Alatar & Pallando) ✧˖° Synopsis: Two Maiar of Oromë finally get to explore Middle-earth. ✧˖° Warnings: / ✧˖° Drabble
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"I hope you don't regret joining me on this journey, my friend." 
Alatar turned his head to look at his companion, and saw a smile lighting up Pallando's features. 
"I do not. And how could I?" 
The other Istar gestured at the land around them, his eyes shining with a youthful excitement that betrayed his appearance of an ageing man to be just a disguise. 
"I remember how Lord Oromë would speak of these lands and how we longed to see them, but we couldn't because it was dangerous. But now we shall explore and make them safe once more."

Life is Strange/Lord of the Rings crossover fanfic. Basically Max and Chloe go to Middle-Earth and back again.
While this crossover might seem eclectic, I think there are some common themes between LiS and LotR. Ordinary people faced with impossible situations. The power of love and friendship allowing people to endure untold hardships. Destiny and what should people do when confronted with it. "The smallest person changing the course of the future".
If you don't like crossovers in general or fantasy in particular, consider reading the beginning of chapter one and the entire chapter four, which take place before Max and Chloe leave their universe and after they come back respectively. That way it becomes a short story about Max's and Chloe's visit to Away. But then you'd miss the part where I describe how Max's and Chloe's engagement rings look like (how could I write a crossover with the Lord of the RINGS and not touch upon this subject), as well as one particularly sappy and drawn-out declaration of love made by Chloe before they go into battle.
If you think that David doesn't deserve Chloe's forgiveness for his "tough love", my answer is - nobody ever deserves forgiveness. It's always something better than we deserve. I think Chloe is a kind-hearted person. She was able to almost immediately forgive Max. I imagine she would also forgive David. And I find the prospect of Chloe and David being reconciled much more appealing than Chloe hating him for the rest of her life, even if she has legitimate reasons for doing so.
While my nickname on AO3 might suggest I hold extremely unorthodox views on Middle-Earth, I honestly don't think what I wrote is incompatible with what we know about the world of LotR. I don't think what I wrote is a complete retelling, like "the Last Ringbearer". In my mind, I just provided a different perspective on the events we already knew about.
The belief that death is a divine gift and rejecting it is wrong, which is held by the "good guys" of LotR, allowed for some nice contrast and conflict with Max's life philosophy, which seems to be all about saving people who are "destined" to die, like Chloe and Tristan.
