Sequel to Aftermath. Five years have passed since Fili, son of Dis, took the throne of Erebor. But in those five years, the kingship has changed him and his family isn't the only one who has noticed. Faced with strife from within the mountain, Fili must learn to ride the currents of the changes coming or break under the pressure of them. Rated M for later chapters; will be Fili/OC.

Millie is completely ignorant to the world of Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, thinks Kili is one dreamy Dwarf, and is completely incompetent. So what happens when she gets thrown into the journey with thirteen Dwarves, a Hobbit, and a Wizard? This is Millie's inconvenient and unexpected story. Inspired by The Awkward Adventures of Meghan Whimblesby by febuarysong. Complete.
