League of Shadows Confessions

fighting to death over some nothingburger.

TONY CURRAN as MARCUS CORVINUS

Well, I had a strange idea related to Bolg’s memories of the past carefree days of childhood, and I shared it with you. I think Azog is most likely a strict and cold daddy. However, given that Bolg followed in his footsteps already in adulthood, Azog clearly looked after his son and directed him in the right direction.

The #CozyCuddles week invited creators to give our characters nice things, and I tried a one-off fluff story.

Thank you, @rivendellwatch for curating.

This is Adar adjacent but he gets name-checked a lot. As an Uruk soldier returns to his wife after the battle of Tirharad and the explosion of Orodruin.

This is my first time writing fluff.

Here comes the orc 𝐁𝐎𝐘𝐒 from LOTR (and Hobbit)! .

And there is Ratbag bc I love him so much. Best sidekick character from Shadow Of War! He deserves some love guys

------------

in S2 ep7, elrond decides to fight against adar after their discussion, where galadriel is trapped, saying, “ask me on the field; when the neck with a blade against it is yours.”

adar responds with, “very well. i will meet you there. with her head on a pike.”

elrond then says, “if that is to be the way of things, i should like to bid her farewell.”

glûg, this entire time, has had galadriel at knifepoint and has been looking more and more increasingly uncomfortable.

adar hesitates at elrond’s request, and upon hesitating, glûg out of the blue says, and i quote, “he’s unarmed.”

adar then allows elrond to go and talk to galadriel, and glûg steps away

i feel like this was quite a big moment of empathy/emotion shown by the uruks that went unnoticed. glûg had some sort of family, a shown mate and child, so it wouldn’t be terribly surprising he could’ve sensed galadriel and elrond had *something* going on and felt bad for them, thinking of his own experience, prompting that response
