One drunken dare. One ancient rune necklace. One mistake that would change two worlds forever.
On the eve of her wedding to James Potter, Lily Evans uncovers forgotten runic magic capable of opening doors between realms. A reckless night with friends, too much Firewhisky, and an enchanted love potion send her stumbling into the hidden realm of Rivendell... where fate entwines her life with Lord Elrond's.
Months later, unable to face what she has done, Lily leaves behind a newborn daughter and a letter confessing everything before returning to Britain.
Raised beneath the golden leaves of Rivendell, the half-elven child knows only the love of her father. She learns swordsmanship, healing, ancient runes, and songs older than kingdoms. To hide her unusual heritage from curious eyes beyond the valley, skilled goblin smiths craft a glamour necklace that makes her appear several years older than her true age whenever she must travel.
Peace ends when an owl from Hogwarts arrives.
Albus Dumbledore holds the twin rune necklace Lily left behind years ago, proof that the child belongs to both worlds.
As Hogwarts welcomes its very first elfling, whispers follow her through every corridor. Some call her a miracle. Others fear what she represents. Meanwhile, in Rivendell, Elrond quietly fulfills an ancient promise by arranging her future betrothal to Prince Legolas Greenleaf.
At Hogwarts she can finally be a normal child... or as normal as a half-elf surrounded by witches and wizards can be.
But every year she spends in Britain brings her closer to adulthood-and the day she must choose between the family she finds at Hogwarts and the destiny waiting beneath the stars of Middle-earth.
A choice between two worlds.
A choice between freedom and duty.
And a choice that may forever change both realms.
