For Lucia Took, I have an extraordinary new adventure.
Often the strictures of the forum format prevent me from gifting large items like books due to their expense, but in this case the first volume of a unique series is free and ready to download.
The premise is familiar: A person from our world is pulled into another where they turn out to be the Chosen One.
The twist: The chosen one is a soccer mom with four kids and a loving husband, and she reacts in a very relatable way to finding herself in this other world: She freaks out.
The other twist: It's Christian spec-fic, and you'll find Someone familiar here, and His Words flow through the story in a totally natural way, like nothing I've seen.
You've never read anything like The Restorer. So have at it. *hands over a lovely, leather-embossed tome tied with cord.*
*whispers* I have extra copies in my sack for the rest of you.

Here are some very, very beginner's Japanese worksheets for Ela. Like I said, I do not know if they will be at all helpful!

Dearest Nioniel
Father Christmas told me to pass this LotR spoof on to you. He believes you will find it quite enjoyable.

Also I was sent to share some links to patterns for knitting projects with you. Unfortunately I believe you have to purchase the patterns, but perhaps you could get even some ideas from these:

Also a chainmail project!

And also, the Council of Elrond website has some great ideas for crafts and things like that. I must warn you I can't vouch for /everything/ on the site, but it seems to be okay, just use caution when exploring.

A fanfic recommendation for Kristi (and anyone else who wants it): https://www.fanfiction.net/u/3356875/LadyAlambiel (Link approved by Tenny)
Slight warning: A lot of her fics are rated "T"; however, this is more for both safety's sake and because of violence. No adult content or foul language to be had here. 😀 (Also, Kristi, though the main character is usually a female OC, she's not one of those who involve "prophecies about a fifth throne at Cair Paravel," as you so aptly put it. 😉 )
Here's a writing advice-type thing for Kristi!

Here is an Aragorn set for Tenny! Merry Christmas!
For Ariel I have another set. You said you like knights, I think?
Another fanfic author recommendation for Kristi: https://www.fanfiction.net/u/3249853/WillowDryad I already gave you one of her fics, but they're all so amazing. 😀 (Same warning as the earlier author I gave: Some "T" fanfics, but for violence only.)
(Also, link approved by Tenny.)
