The King's Lost Daughter

The Dwarves and A Painful Goodbye

This chapter takes place 50 years after the Previous Chapter (please note that 50 years goes by really fast for elves):

Emarilia and her father forgave each other, but they rarely spoke with one another. Emarilia only spoke with Legolas, but breifly. She stayed in her room most of the time, because she was depressed. She missed Elrond dearly, and she knew that if she asked her father to visit him, he would get mad. This morning, after she got dressed, she heard a lot of commotion coming from the throne room. Emarilia heard people hollering and shouting, but most of the shouting was coming from her father. Emarilia stepped out of her room, and snuck to her father's throne to see what was going on. As she was walking to the throne room, she passed the cellars. They were filled with dwarves, hollering to get out. Emarilia quickly walked past them, because she was quite frightened by them. Her father always told her that dwarves were uncivilized folk, and that they were greedy and rude. She didn't believe him though, she believed dwarves were peaceful folk. As she passed them, she heard one dwarf whispering "Psst...psst" Emarilia turned to see who was making the noise, and it was a young dwarf who was surprisingly handsome(aka Kili) Emarilia walked up to his cellar and smirked saying "You summoned me?" Kili giggled and said "Yes, I was wondering if you could help us get out..." Emarilia made an uneasy face and said "I'll try, but my father is very stubborn." Kili made a face of realization and said "You must be princess Emarilia, I'm kili, heir of Durin." Kili gave her a warm smile, and held out his hand for her to shake through the cell's bars. Emarilia smiled and gladly shook his hand. "It's nice to meet you kili" she kindly said. Kili smiled and replied "It's nice to meet you too, Princess Emarilia" with a bow. After they greeted each other, Emarilia stood there in akward silence, and
Kili was staring at her smiling. After a few minutes Emarilia said "I should get going." Kili realized that he was making her feel uncomfortable from staring at her and said "Oh! I'm so sorry for staring at you, you're just so beautiful." Emarilia was blushing, and looked down at her feet to hide her pink cheeks. "Thank you" she mumbled, and walked off. When she reached the throne room, she peeked her head inside, making sure that her father didn't see her. She saw her father yelling at a dwarf with long black hair, and he was wearing a long, dark green coat, with a shorter fur coat on top of it (aka Thorin Oakensheild) and he looked angry, but not as angry as her father. Thorin turned to Thranduil and said "I would not trust Thranduil, The great king to honor his word, SHOULD THE END OF ALL DAYS BE UPON US! YOU LACK ALL HONOR! I have seen how you treat your friends! We came to you once, starving, homeless, seeking your help, but you turned your back! You, turned away from the suffering of my people, The inferno the destroyed us!" Thranduil became enraged, and stepped closer to Thorin, leaning down, so they were face to face. "DO NOT TALK TO ME OF DRAGON FIRE! I KNOW ITS WRATH AND RUIN! I HAVE FACED THE GREAT SERPENTS OF THE NORTH!" Suddenly Thranduil revealed a burn on his cheek that exposed his tattered flesh, that was all bloody. His left eye was blinded and turned white. Emarilia jumped back in fear. Suddenly his scar dissapeared and he began to climb the steps to his throne, and said to Thorin while some guards grabbed him "Stay here if you will and rot! A hundred years is a mere blink in the life of an elf! I am patient, I can wait!" And with that, the guards dragged the dwarf away to a dungeon cellar. Emarilia felt extremely bad for Thorin, and walked up to her father. "Why did you do that ada?!" Thranduil turned to look at her and asked "Do what?", "You just locked up that dwarf and several others for no reason!" Emarilia protested. Thranduil scoffed and said "I did lock them up for a reason! And besides, I hate dwarves!" Emarilia became annoyed and calmly said "Ada, just because you are king, that doesn't mean that you can lock up whom you wish, because you don't like them, besides I heard that you didn't help the dwarves long ago when their home was destroyed. Why didn't you help them?" Thranduil was becoming quite annoyed and replied "I didn't help them because, there were so much of them, and I had only a few troops with me! If I helped them, I would have lost all my men for a worthless cause!" Emarilia frowned, and mumbled "That's not an excuse, you still needed to fight no matter what." Thranduil stood up from his throne and shouted "OH FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE EMARILIA! SPEAK UP!" Emarilia jumped back in fear. Thranduil's face filled with regret and he said "E..Emarilia I didn't m..mean to yell" Emarilia scoffed and said "Of course you didn't! You never mean anything! Like when you swore to protect me!" Thranduil's eye's filled with fury again "DO NOT TALK TO ME LIKE THAT!" he shouted. Tears began to spill from Emarilia's eyes. "Release the dwarves ada." She said calmly. "NEVER!" he protested. "ADA IT'S NOT FAIR! RELEASE THEM, THEY DIDN'T DO ANYTHING! Emarilia cried out. "NO! I'VE HEARD ENOUGH! STOP BEING SO FOOLISH! YOU CANNOT COMMAND ME! I DO AS I WISH!" Thranduil shouted back. Emarilia started crying and asked "WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?!" She calmed down, then added "Is this what Naneth would have wanted?" Thranduil lost his temper, he will regret what he is about to say forever. "NANETH IS NOT HERE ANYMORE, WHY CAN'T YOU ACCEPT THAT! YOU-YOU......" Thranduil was trying to find the right word to say, then added "YOU WHORE!" Emarilia froze in shock. Her mouth opened slightlly, and her eyes widened in fear and sadness. Tears streamed down her cheeks and she said very calmly "Very well, If that's all you think of me then I will leave. I've been making your life miserable anyways." Thranduil immediately regretted what he said, and cooed "Emarilia, I...I didn't mean it, I..I'm s..sorry" Emarilia ignored him, and began to walk out of the room. Thranduil grabbed her arm and said "Emarilia please! I..I didn't mean-" He was cut off, because Emarilia yanked her arm away from his grip and shouted "Don't touch me! I'm a whore, remember?" Thranduil started to cry and said "Please!" Emarilia shook her head, and ran out of the room. Thranduil chased after her and said "Emarilia! Wait! No! please! I cannot lose you again!" Emarilia ran to the stables, and hopped onto her horse. Thranduil caught up with her, and grabbed the reins before she could take off. Thranduil's eyes were red, and he pleaded "Emarilia...please" Emarilia snatched the reins out of her fathers hands, and said "If all I am is a whore to you, then I don't belong here." she then took off. Thranduil fell to his knees, and screamed. He began to cry and layed on the ground, crying so hard, that he could barely breathe.

I am so sorry for such an upsetting chapter, please don't hate me!
