Title self explanatory. Some of these are AUs. I am writing these for fun, but also because I want to become better in the art of creative writing. That being said, any constructive criticism is welcome and greatly appreciated! TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. To Fulfill a Promise. An AU where Legolas visits the Glittering Caves Alone. 2. A Letter Thranduil receives a letter sometime after Legolas departs to Imladris to inform them of Gollum's escape. 3. Whispers The ring calls to Boromir. 4. In a Foul Place (Part 1 and 2) After a skirmish with a pack of Orcs, Legolas and his unit are caught off guard and outnumbered. 5. Namárië After Aragorn's passing, there is still one other Legolas wants to say farewell to before he and Gimli depart across the sea. 6. Lost Soldiers and a Little Wine Thranduil and his wife help their son, Legolas, come to terms with those he has lost after a battle. 7. To the Sea When King Elessar receives a letter from Faramir, he must rush to the ocean in an attempt to wake the former Prince of Mirkwood from his Sea Longing. 8. Heart of a Soldier After an unexpected spider attack goes ill, Thaladir must do everything in his waning power to get the king's son back to the stronghold alive. (The story of how my OC and Legolas became friends) 9. A Mother's Burden When Estel comes home to visit, Gilraen ponders the dangers her son faces. 10. Through Windows to find Cradles A wood elf encounters Gollum. 11. Maybe They Had Won A year after the desolation of Smaug, Legolas has a hard time believing the shadow has truly lifted from the forest. 12. In the Aftermath Legolas must wait for aid in the aftermath of a battle. TBC Side note: I probably won't do any romance but if I do, there won't be any mature content. In other words, nothing beyond a kiss. Hope y'all enjoy! ----------------------------------------- Awesome cover by @Stars_Alight

Small Vignette-like story about Celeborn, and a bit Galadriel too. After the Battle of the Last Alliance Celeborn finds himself alive... Rated PG13, because, let's be real. It's Tolkien, and it's post-battle.

Tag along as the company of Thorin Oakenshield gets a little too into it.

Forty years have gone by since the beginning of the Fourth Age. The time of peace is falling away as Orcs are attacking villages in Eryn Lasgalen and Gondor, killing aimlessly. Legolas receives a strange letter from Aragorn asking him to meet in Imladris. But something happens on the road and Legolas and his captain, Thaladir, discover something disturbing about the new enemy. Something that could take them, Aragorn, and others as far as the Mines of Moria. Please Note: This is an older work of mine and while I still love it dearly, the writing isn't the best, and it is slightly AU because I didn't know Tolkien lore when I started it. So please don't judge my writing on this fic. «»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«»«» Disclaimer: I do not own any of Tolkien's characters or places. Rated: PG-13 For Violence. ------------------------------------------------------------- Wonderful cover by @Stars_Alight

After a failed spider mission, Legolas is left injured beyond what the Greenwood healers can help. Thranduil, worried for his son's Fea, sends him to Imladris for help. But the unit escorting the prince is attacked on the way and Legolas, after barely escaping, then fleas to the most unlikely of places where he hides, refusing to tell anyone of his whereabouts, afraid to go to Imladris, afraid to go home. This story fills in some gaps from The Return and creates a few more that I may delve into in a later fic. Thanks to @GerithorDunedain and @Illeandir for the title! @GerithorDunedain also gave me the prompt for this story XD
