Gimli and the Beast – Chapter 4 – Morvidra – The Lord of the Rings – All Media Types [Archive of Our Own]
This is a recording of myself (EEP) reading aloud the awesome sonnet written by @morvidra for chapter 42 of Sansukh.
It describes the circumstances – and consequences – of the fateful letters sent to Thranduil and Gloin in glorious, glorious iambic pentameter!
I’ve reproduced the poem under the cut for accessibility, but here is the original post – please go shower @morvidra with adulation 🙂
Violin playing by me (DOUBLE EEP). The tune is the renaissance dance air ‘Daphne’.
I LOVE IT SO MUCH.
I’M STILL LAUGHING.
It’s the way you read it like a high Shakespearean tragedy (with extra melodrama)
Two kingdoms, both alike in dignity…?
EXTREME HIGH DUDGEON, exactly!!! exit pursued by an oliphaunt! 😉
so glad you like it and that it made you laugh, Fee ❤ love you to bits.

Sonnet, by @morvidra
The letters with the news of love were sent
From Gondor’s battlefields, up to the North
Where valour held the orcish armies back,
And dwarves and elves alike did muster forth.
Most caref’ly crafted were these missives writ,
The word to break – to dull the hammer blow.
Long thought they spent upon them – then dispatched,
Them to their families – those recent foes.
Alas that fortune ever plays such jokes,
And placed these families both upon one ground
When they received the news – and then, once more,
Was battle seen anew within that mound.
O careless lovers – well-intentioned fools!
Send letters – yes! – but add a lot of booze!

*hugs you tight* Thank you so much!!!
Sonnet
I… yeah, I take no responsibility when my brain produces verse.
Inspired by @determamfidd‘s Sansukh – chapter 42.
