Her true name was spoken only in shadows: Levónalehím Saffronlé Lórien. Her past, fractured, hidden, and half-remembered-haunted every quiet step she took.
Yet Middle-earth has a way of summoning those it has marked, whether they seek such paths or flee from them.
Though few knew the truth of her origins, her bond with Bilbo Baggins ran deeper than blood or name, a quiet thread that tied her wandering heart to his door. But even that fragile tether could not hold her when fate intervened.
When her road crossed that of Thorin Oakenshield and his Company, the turning of her life became inevitable. Fate bound her to their quest-the reclaiming of Erebor, a kingdom buried beneath sorrow, gold, and dragon-fire.
Among Dwarves who eyed her with suspicion, and shadows that hunted what light she carried, Saffronlé found something she had not known since childhood: a place where her presence mattered.
And in the echo of steel upon stone, beneath starlight and the whisper of ancient evils stirring, she discovered something rarer still-love, steady and unexpected, blooming in the unlikeliest of hearts.
