This a an AU story so things fit nicely Reborn as an immortal Elf in Middle-earth, Edward Elric must wield his genius, his courage, and his heart to reshape a world of magic, war, and destiny — and find the love that was always meant for him. When a golden-haired Elf-child is found in Rohan, the princess raises him as her son. But at three, he remembers his past life as Edward Elric, a prodigious alchemist from another world. Gifted, stubborn, and brilliant, Edward grows to challenge the traditions of Men and Elves alike — and his fate will eventually intertwine with Arwen Undómiel, forging a legend across the ages. Disclaimer: The Golden Child is a work of fanfiction. All characters, settings, and elements from Middle-earth, as well as Edward Elric from Fullmetal Alchemist, belong to their respective creators. This story is an original reinterpretation and is not intended for commercial use. Events, relationships, and characterizations in this work are fictional and may differ significantly from canon.

At the Waters of Awakening, an elf is born with memories that don’t belong to this world. When the Valar arrive with their shining offer - salvation, eternal light, a paradise across the sea — he sees what others cannot. A price hidden beneath divine promises. Safety traded for freedom. So he does the unthinkable. He refuses. The Avari-the Unwilling, the Refusers, the ones history will forget — follow him into exile. What unfolds is not a tale of wandering wonder, but of building: walls raised against the coming darkness, weapons forged without divine guidance, a kingdom carved from nothing but will and determination. Because in Middle-earth, freedom is never free. And darkness always comes to collect. ━━━━━━━━ ⟡ AUTHOR’S NOTES ⟡ ━━━━━━━━ Lore-heavy beginning: The opening chapters introduce many Tolkien terms, names, and worldbuilding elements. If it feels dense at first, don’t worry - each chapter ends with a mini-glossary to help you navigate everything easily. Long-form chapters: The chapter count may look small early on, but every chapter is substantial (3,000+ words minimum, often much longer). AU & apologies to lore purists: This is an Alternate Universe kingdom-building story set in Tolkien’s Middle-earth. I apologize in advance to hardcore LOTR fans for any lore liberties or naming mistakes - I’m doing my best to honor the source material while exploring new possibilities. Constructive feedback is always welcome (kindly, please)! Give it a chance. The Avari are waiting!!!

Hobbits, Elves, Dwarves, Orcs… Kaen steps into Middle-earth through the Mount & Blade system, embarking on a journey no one has ever dared to take before. At the very beginning of his journey, he receives five powerful buffs: Territory development speed ×3 Average life expectancy of citizens ×3 Soldier growth rate ×3 Hero growth rate ×3 Every enemy slain grants experience, and each level-up strengthens him further. … Gandalf: “Lord Kaen does not falter, even when all hope seems lost. When the darkness deepens, it is he who stands as our light.” Thorin Oakenshield: “But for Kaen, I would have fallen and Erebor would lie still in ruin. Truly, he is as steadfast as the mountain itself.” Galadriel: “By his wisdom was the Tree of Life renewed, and through him hope endures for the Elves of Middle-earth. For this, he is named King of the Elves.” Kaen: “Though the Shadow spreads and the Eye watches from afar, I shall lift my sword high and bring light again to this darkened land — even should Sauron himself stand before me.” - - - Bonus Chapters: > 150 Power Stones = 1st Bonus Chapter > 300 Power Stones = 2nd Bonus Chapter > 500 Power Stones = 3rd Bonus Chapter > 800 Power Stones = 4th Bonus Chapter - - - Patreon Advance Chapters: pat reon.com /ElvenKing20

[ CURRENT STATUS: 219,468 Words ] [ Status: Ongoing - Long Chapters (2500-4500 words each) ] --- There are thousands of worlds, each with its own stories and legends. Every storyteller has a different motive: some seek power and wealth, others love and revenge. Some strive for adventure and passion, while others fight for justice and peace. In one of these many worlds—a distorted version of Middle-earth—a young man’s journey begins. However, the peace of this day is a deception. Our hero was once an ordinary teenager who died protecting a friend in a gang fight. He wakes up to find himself in a Middle-earth that is vastly different from the tales he knew. In this realm, Elves, Humans, and Dwarves share the land with darker shadows: Vampires, Liches, Werewolves, Hydras, and Basilisks. The history of this world is not what was told in the books. While our hero sets out for the Shire to find Gandalf and Thorin, he acquires a Kingdom Building System, turning his survival mission into an epic quest to carve out his own destiny. --- ⚠️ WARNING FOR TOLKIEN PURISTS: This is a Radical Alternative Universe (AU). While the foundation of this world is built upon Tolkien’s original work vast parts of history and lore have been fundamentally rewritten. You will encounter familiar landmarks and themes, but the origins of races like Orcs and Dark Elves, and the inclusion of entirely new creatures, mark a deep departure from the original books. Fanfiction is about exploration and "What if" scenarios. If you are looking for a story that strictly adheres to the established canon, this is NOT for you. If you want the original story, the books are always there to be reread. --- What to expect: Grounded MC: No overpowered protagonist. Success is earned, not given. No Harem: While the MC remains loyal to one person, you might encounter side characters or world elements where harems exist. Strategic System: The system is for management and kingdom building, not a "cheat code" for instant strength. Complex Hero: A slightly chaotic yet serious protagonist. A Multiverse Twist: Potential appearances from different anime universes and John Flanagan’s works. Alternative Universe: This is a radical departure from the original Hobbit and LOTR canon. Strictly no LGBT content. --- the world where the novel takes place is middle earth as seen in the hobbit and lord of the rings books.

Garrett crash-lands near Hobbiton with full game mechanics, inventory slots, crafting abilities, hunger bars, and the power to punch trees into perfect blocks. After befriending Bilbo Baggins through his system-enhanced cooking skills, he sets out to establish a base in the wilderness, planning to be ready when the great events unfold. What follows is the rise of the legendary 'Bane of the Orcs.' Why not give Garrett's adventure a try?

When you woke up in the body of a 17-year old devil in a clan destined for doom, what would you do? Especially if you awoke on the day it was destroyed? Luminarie did what she could in those circumstances. Hidden where it was safe, but there were dangerous things waiting for her out in the world, and many of those whom her family treated as allies were just waiting for her to trip and take everything she had. But there is one thing they didn't take into consideration and would never know. She awakened the System when she received her Evil Pieces, which allow her to travel to eight different worlds to gather her Peerage to fight for her freedom and revenge for her parents, who died before her eyes. And she will take pleasure in exacting it. I don't own any rights to the stories and characters, except for my character and his story. Cover and pictures are made using vivago.ai

Middle-earth was never meant to survive this. Denethor chokes to death. A hobbit is thrown from the walls of Minas Tirith. Éowyn dies screaming. And the creature who swallowed the One Ring begins to rise. This is not the Lord of the Rings you remember. In a brutal, dark reimagining of Tolkien’s world, heroes fall, destinies rot, and Gollum’s journey toward Moria draws the attention of an exiled Elf who sees in him something the Elves never gave her: truth, power, and hunger without restraint. Chosen kings. Broken vows. Obsession born in moonlit blood. Middle-earth is cracking—and something terrible is answering the call. Oh and Gollum accidentally ate the ring and now he is the ring.

Miquella. That's my name… at least, it is now. I am the result of an improbable event, the fruit of the fusion between a human from Earth and an Empyrean of the Lands Between. Now I wander this unknown land, so similar and, at the same time, so different from both worlds… Middle-earth. With a mysterious ring on my finger and an unyielding desire to survive, I move forward with a single purpose: To reclaim my power. To reclaim my sister. To correct the path where I once erred. To accept what I am… and find happiness in it. In this new world… A new opportunity…

Many speak about the events of The Lord of the Rings and the Dark Lord Sauron... but very few remember that Sauron was merely the apprentice of the true Dark Lord. Morgoth's greed to extinguish any light that could overshadow his darkness led him to steal Fëanor's three precious gems... thus beginning the conflict between Elves and Orcs.

No good deed goes unpunished. This was certainly the case for Benjamin Kirby - who saved a young life & lost his in the process. But fear not! Thanks to a conscientious benefactor, Ben gets a second shot at life in a far more interesting world. Now, armed with Ancient Magic of the Gods, watch as our intrepid protagonist delves into the secrets of magic, builds artifacts and cities, & travels through the Omniverse, making friends and enemies alike. What NOT to expect - - Orphan, edgy, vengeful protagonist - Loner emo MC - MC hiding his power for the express purpose of face-slapping - MC acting like an idiot just for the sake of 'having fun' - Pokémon harem - MC with a god-complex (Wants to be a God-Emperor) What to expect - - MC with loving parents, sister and a dog (i.e. Not a psycho) - MC helps out his friends - Logically overpowered MC - MC invents stuff and introduces movies and music - Multiversal travel - MC plans ahead (something almost never seen in HP fanfics) - MC's chosen vocation - Teacher (in the Omniverse) - Two Love Interests (At most Three. No more. Promise!)

In the year 1340 of the Shire Reckoning, one year before the departure to the Lonely Mountain expedition, the Grey Wizard had yet to visit the Shire, the Dwarf King was still forging weapons in the Blue Mountains, and the dragon still slept deep within the mountain…In that very year, a young man from our earth unexpectedly crossed into Middle-earth, carrying the Hogwarts Sign-in System.Overnight, Hogwarts Castle rose from the ground, standing tall and majestic on the lands of Middle-earth; flying broomsticks streaked across the skies, becoming a unique sight in this world.In the wild lands, the legend of a black-robed wizard began to spread silently.He was a friend of the Elves, a bane to the Orcs, a nightmare to the Trolls, and the lifelong nemesis of the Dark Lord Sauron.Years later, when the Dark Lord was defeated, the Elves sailed West, and the Age of Men began—Kael, who had signed in at all corners of Middle-earth, looked toward the fabled lands in the West.[Location: Aman.

Shire Reckoning 1340, one year before the Company of Thorin Oakenshield would depart. At this time, the wizard had not yet visited the Shire, Thorin was still wandering in exile, and the dragon slept in the mountain... This year, a human with an MC system arrived in Middle-earth. Levi awakens in Middle-earth with Minecraft's creative powers at his fingertips. What begins with simple survival quickly evolves into legend as he establishes Roadside Keep—a miraculous city that appears overnight with towering walls, endless golden wheat fields, and impossible architecture that defies the natural order. Thus high walls and fortresses rose overnight, and golden wheat fields stretched endlessly to the horizon. Legends of the Block Wizard spread across the wilderness. Armed with an inventory system, the ability to place and break blocks at will, and Minecraft's game mechanics translated into reality, Levi becomes an unstoppable force in Middle-earth. He slays the dragon Smaug, defeats orc armies single-handedly, establishes the Free Cities alliance encompassing both sides of the Misty Mountains, and even battles the ancient Balrog of Moria to a standstill across multiple days. From his base at Roadside Keep, Levi forges alliances with elves, dwarves, and men alike. He receives an ancient dwarven artifact from the depths of underground kingdoms, gains magical seeds from the elven realm, and develops thaumaturgy to create magical artifacts. His territory becomes a beacon of prosperity where education flourishes and refugees find sanctuary. Years later, when orc armies besieged the city and looked up at infinite water pouring down from the sky, they fell silent. "How is this not overpowered?" As dark forces gather in the East and Mordor's influence spreads, Levi's legend grows. The Balrog knows his name, Sauron's agents fear him, and even the wise like Gandalf and Galadriel treat him as an equal. With unlimited resources, impossible constructions, and the power to reshape the very landscape, Levi stands as Middle-earth's most unconventional hero—a Block Wizard whose very existence rewrites the fate of the ancient age of legends. ___________ Minecraft elements In the Lord of the Ring world I've Deleted the Nationalism, corrected the Dialogues, Names, Items, Spells and made some changes to certain things.

And while he had always enjoyed the peace and anonymity of the shadows, he knew it was time to embrace the spotlight and show the world the kind of cinema he and his friend had once dreamt of.

In a world where loyalty is rare and ambition is ruthless, Alex must balance his vision with the sacrifices required to achieve greatness. Filled with intrigue, passion, and the relentless pursuit of art, From Shadows to the Spotlight explores the price of genius and the cost of chasing an impossible dream.
