    Summary

    Slightly AU. Instead of being two days of travelling from Mount Doom when they dropped their gear, that Frodo and Sam were about a week away. I also took liberties with Legolas' age. I'm making it so that he was 500 at the Last Alliance, so now he's 3527. Telepathy in italics. 'Someone thinking'

    Summary

    Thranduil’s realm has stood apart for centuries—silent, secretive, and sealed against the outside world. The aloof king trusts no one beyond his borders, least of all the grim and prideful Noldor.

    When young Prince Legolas, playful and curious despite his father’s stern warnings, strays too close to Imladris, he is captured by the infamous twin sons of Elrond. Elladan and Elrohir—war-hardened, merciless, and known for hunting orcs with cold precision—are not prepared for the golden-haired wood elf who stirs more than just suspicion.

    Bound by ancient grudges and deep scars, both realms stand on the edge of renewed conflict. But amid the tension, one of Elrond’s sons begins to see past the bloodlines and borders—to the light in Legolas that refuses to dim.

    And light has always drawn shadow.

    Summary

    Thorin Oakenshield has no love of elves, but a burning hate of orcs — so it isn’t terribly hard for Gandalf to convince him to join efforts with an elf-maid while they are hunted across the foothills of Rhudaur. Elf or not, he can only respect someone who can so handily dispatch their enemy.

    He only wanted to get the Company to safety, and to the Misty Mountains for the next leg of their journey. Rivendell was never on his itinerary — and he never expected the she-elf they fell in with to be the wife of Elrond, Lord of Rivendell.

    But then, Legolas has always managed to surprise people.

    The Company of Thorin Oakenshield detours to Rivendell, thanks to orcs being . . . well, orcs. Everything that comes after that is probably not their fault.
