- Description:
Vanimórë, son of Sauron, was born in the shadows of Tol-in-Gaurhoth. A plaything, a slave, a warrior, he was bound to his father's mind, and tempered as a weapon of the Dark over thousands of years.
They forged better than they knew.
Trained in the pits of Angband, Vanimórë could command armies, kill without conscience, and he could hate those he served. But he would not break for them. The blood of the Eldar ran strong in him. His path was inextricably linked to some of the most famed and tragic of the Elves, and lead to a destiny he could never have imagined.
The Darkness...
...Has its own Light.Please heed the warnings and rating.

Order of reading on the archive I primarily use (and is most up-to-date)
(All stories, including the Arc of Fire, are set within the Dark Prince AU.)
The Dark Prince series:
Earthblood (which takes place in the south after the Last Alliance. WIP)
Dark Lands and Dark Blood were written co-cooperatively with Anwyn, telling the stories from the point of view of her Original character.
Weapons Of The Gods ~ Dark Prince V (WIP)
~The Arc of Fire series:
I Will Lead And Thou Shalt Follow
Lords Of The Light is First/Second Age, and Elf-centric, however since Vanimórë appears in it, Dark Prince I should be read before it.
A Trinity of Princes takes place within The Power and the Passion, and was a birthday gift-fic for the brilliant Esteliel.

Summary
Vanimórë journeys south with Elgalad to a rich, corrupt city on the coast of Far Harad, where an ancient darkness has the ruler under its hand. Death and madness unfold about Sauron's son; he was made Vala in the Bath of Flame, yet this old evil will flee from power, and Vanimórë is forced to endure slavery once more as he seeks to discover what dwells upon the Isle of Plagues.
"We tempered thee as as a smith makes the finest sword, Vanimórë, with heat and hammer blows."
Dark Lands is the sequel to Dark Prince and is a collaboration between myself and Anwyn.

If he falls, there is no way back.Fëanor's eyes glowed in the red-black which emanated from the figure. His sword shone white as he stepped forward.
''I have...long desired this, Jail Crow!'' The words were exultant, his smile beautiful.

Summary
Vanimórë's Imperium rises in the south, bringing order in the wake of conquest, and beyond it's might the Re-united Kingdom thrives in peace. Gil-galad returns to Lindon with a youthful Fëanor who has his own power and destiny. Yet an evil undermines Vanimórë's rule, and taints the kingdoms beyond. His subjects believe their Emperor demands blood sacrifice and name him the Dark God.
And at the end there will be sacrifice indeed, and a breaking of the heart...Although he no longer possessed physical form he felt a hand, strong as steel grip his, the touch of a mind filled with fire.
I am with thee! Fëanor, shining like the Silmarilli.
I have thee! Glorfindel's golden storm-aura.

Summary
Thousands of years after the destruction of Old Earth, Sauron, with Ungoliant, is welcomed into Valinor, to make the Halls of Waiting a place where souls are devoured. The ruling Valar of Aman wish to use her to lure Vanimórë, Glorfindel, Fëanor and all those they call the Rebels to uttermost destruction unto the very dissolution of their souls.
But thus do the Gods forge weapons; with hammers of pain and sacrifice – and the fires of undying love.
“Slave of the Dark.” Glorfindel's voice carried an echo of power like summer thunder. “Or its eternal enemy.”
~~~Book V of the Dark Prince series.
This is a work in progress.
