castles, they will fall (but i'll be there) by 221bdisneystreet

Summary
One night, Deet catches a shooting star—or rather, a young Gelfling named Brea who had fallen from the sky, kept afloat only by her mysterious crystal pendant. From there, the two Gelfling find themselves on a perilous journey to find the mysterious and legendary floating island of Thra. Along the way, they must team up with a ragtag crew of sky pirates who seek to unearth Thra's treasures and must evade the Skeksis who seek to control Thra's destructive automaton armies.
And perhaps they'll find something else between them, something more precious and powerful than anything Thra could possess.

Summary
A Skeksis round the hallway corner but it wasn't the one you were expecting. No, it's SkekGra The Conqueror. He's definitely one of the few you really wanted to avoid. The Skeksis himself looked surprised to see you as well, his eyes would narrow in annoyance. Peering down at you through his spiked helmet- It created frightening shadows. Shrinking in on yourself, you tried to look small as much as possible- Even keeping your gaze to the polished floor.
"Pardon me." You spoke with a meek voice, the Skeksis in hulking armor watched intently with violent eyes as you carefully side step around.
What you didn't know that there is a far more frightening Skeksis then he.

Summary
SkekTek's experiments on the Crystal of Truth go awry. Rather than learning about essence, the skeksis find themselves having to deal with an entirely new problem, completely separate from aging and eventually dying. Inconveniently, the problem requires all else be put on hold until it gets solved.
Issue 1: This will require a certain degree of teamwork, which isn't something skeksis are known for.
Issue 2: There are other forces at work, which are neither benevolent nor nonviolent. Dying of old age may soon be the least of their worries. -
Siege Warfare by HeartbreakTerrorBird

Summary
A collection of one-shots set over the course of SkekVar and his Emperor's relationship.
SkekVar is a soldier, he understands that his courtship of the Emperor is a siege not a battle. Nothing will be decided decisively, it is not a battle of force or numbers, it is a slow, painful wearing down of the enemies resistance.
The Emperor does not harbour any particular affections for his General, not at all. Nope. No favouritism, no preferential treatment. He doesn't care for SkekVar at all. -

Summary
Hey all --
Decided to post and maybe more importantly start collating some of the notes for my Dark Crystal Uni-Verse setting/lore that I've shared in part on different platforms! So this will be the home for Fallen UrSkek Backstory and also just generally what is Up with UrSkeks, because seriously...what is up with UrSkeks.

Summary
Trapped in a world very different than her own, and with little idea of how to return home, Wynn seeks help from the Skeksis, a small group of ancient beings who inhabit a mysteriously empty castle isolated in a dying land. Wynn is quick to learn that the word 'friend' here has little meaning, and that she must rely on her own wit and strategy if she wants to survive long enough to figure out a way home.
A/N (March 2025) = this story is a mess at the moment, up to chapter 17 had been edited/updated since 2022 (but I am still not happy with those changes, so expect more), and beyond that the story is still part of the old one, so both halves don't even form a cohesive story anymore. I was going to hide this story by making it private until the updates are complete, but I thought that might confuse people as I have no way of announcing what I am doing on AO3 except through writing here. Just bear in mind, if you're a new reader, well... I apologise, this will be a mess to read ^^u The finalised version will be completed this year, I will not be updating the story until all edited chapters are available. Consider this fic on HIATUS.

Summary
One hundred trine ago, the land of Thra was laid to waste in a catastrophe known to all as the Great Calamity. The Skeksis rule what is left with an iron fist, plotting in the shadows something more sinister. The Gelfling struggle to survive and rebuild but teeter on the brink of despair. And when an old threat emerges, all hope seems lost...
That is, until three mysterious Gelfling awaken from their slumber.
As they pick up the pieces of their forgotten memories, the three heroes must also pick up the pieces of their broken home and ignite the fires of resistance once more.
