I'm not sure that's the same as a 'planned fantasy genre' though. It's just a planned trilogy I believe.

Can I get the full context of where the words 'planned fantasy genre' were used please?

There are several different fantasy genres existing, but I'm not finding any of them named 'planned genre' yet....

@Tyelkormo the Fair @Ent At Large I think the first two books have been released, but not the third. Hence it is planned to be a trilogy, but not a trilogy yet.

• Mysterious Kisser: I think I'm around a quarter way through it at the moment. It falls mostly in the Romance and Comedy genre, and a little bit of thriller in the middle I guess. It's about the relationship of Celegorm and my OC in Valinor. I'm posting this on a conversation thread for my beta readers in the Youth Group.
• Cursed to Be Alone: I don't know how far along I am in this story, because I don't know where I'm going with this. It revolves around an orphaned elven boy(who would grow to be someone we are all familiar with it) and Celegorm, and the parental love he'd grow for this boy.
• A Dance With Fate: Again, this is about my OC and Celegorm. Each chapter is a snippet to a turning point in their life, or just the results of my brain producing fluff and angst for them.🫠 I'm not really sure when this would be done. I've only written one chapter for it, although I have ideas for more. It doesn't go along a straight timeline, and not all the stories would be from the pov of OC.
• Hasty in Guilt: There's only one chapter of this left! For those who have not read this, it begins with Little Celegorm running away from home after hurting his father's emotions, continuing with worried Nerdanel and Fëanor as they try to find a solution to figure out the whereabouts of their missing son.
• Mistake of A Lifetime: This one is about my other OC and the AU which I wrote with @Server Room Gremlin. I think I'm halfway finished with this already, but we'll have to wait and see what I'll end up doing. It's set after the rescue of Maedhros and the high tension between the two groups of the Noldor. Nethien(Nessanië or the Female Celegorm) meets her ex-betrothed and Nolofinwian supporter Arhesto after their long separation and the anger and grief between them leads to unfortunate events. I will not be posting this on TTF because of some triggering stuff involving the plot, and I'd rather not have those to be on TTF. But it's being posted on AO3 if anyone's curious.
• Amidst the Misty Glades: I have not written anything for this story since December last year, I think. I believe it's just easier to write about the Noldor and their stories with already developed characters. And I think one of the reasons I'm not really eager to continue with that one is because reading my earlier writings makes me cringe so badly. I'm kinda thinking about rewriting it all from the beginning and maybe it'd make it easier for me to continue with it. But I know I'd not totally abandon it because I have people waiting for it. (Looking at you, @Glorfindel Goldtress! 👀)

I had to look up that expression.😅

Personally, I don't really see what Celegorm and Curufin did as forcing Lúthien to anything other than remaining inside Nargothrond, and even in that there are some stuff that makes me question the whole thing.

Celegorm and Curufin brought her to Nargothrond and kept her there against her will and she couldn't leave anytime she wanted to, but she could put Morgoth and everyone else in his throne room in sleep? That doesn't make much sense to me, as the rest of the overthrowing Finrod thing. I don't really want to rant about how there are a lot of logical problems with B&L, so I suggest you read this blog post. It points out all the logical flaws I personally find in the story as well, and it suggests another more detailed scenario.

And before you call me biased, I was actually a very big fan of the Sindar because a fanfiction I read from their pov, and viewed the Fëanorians except Maglor and Maedhros maybe, but reading Silmarillion really opened my eyes.
You see, though, except for a short exchange between Curufin and Eöl, I don't think we see any other dialogues or inner thoughts of these two characters and we don't really have anything to judge their character aside from Celegorm being called hasty to anger and Curufin having a perilous mood 24/7.

Also, if you're curious about how I write Celegorm, there are some of my works published in here. If you're even more curious, I can add you to the list of my beta readers.😊

And to clarify what makes me really mad:

We(Fëanorian fans) are shut down even when we offer such a thorough post that even I as an INTP(so logical I can become toxic because of it sometimes) can't find any flaws in. It's unfair and we're called the biased ones.
