NOTE: This starts off at TDOS and ends in BOTFA. Nerissa Waterbearer is a very young elf in Mirkwood. She is the daughter of the great elven king, Thranduil, and little sister to Legolas Greenleaf. Her weapon of choice isn't a bow and arrows. She uses a sword, which her father gave her when she turned 100. Why is her last name waterbearer, you ask? It's because she has very powerful magic in her. She can manipulate water in all different shapes and forms. This is her story and why Legolas never mentioned her in LOTR.

When Thranduil and Legolas's reunion after the Quest is interrupted and Legolas is taken captive, will he be able to fight the pain in his past long enough to be saved?

Amara is the youngest child of Elrond and Celebrian. After her mothers departure nothing is the same in Rivendell. When Elrond comes back from Mirkwood, he explains to Amara that him and King Thranduil want their children to be joined in marriage. Now Amara is in Mirwood, ready to marry Legolas. But then 13 unexpected guests show up and now Amara is fighting for their fair share in life, but could this ruin her's and Legolas marriage? *This is Book 1 of 3 stories.*

King Thranduil has everything at his feet. His son, Legolas, a kingdom and a crown with all of its treasures, but what he doesn't have is a companion to share his life with. When Laer steps into his kingdom he finds himself curious about her, what makes her smile, what makes her tick, and most of all, what does this average elf think of the king of Mirkwood? I do not own any of the characters besides Laer and Rovain, everything else goes happily to Tolkien. ** Extremely Slow Updates ** Due to complaints I feel the need to write this... it clearly says slow updates above. It doesn't say completed in the details either. This is an unfinished story. There are slow updates. I have an extremely busy schedule with my full time job, my full time in college and the work load I receive from college and I go through extremely rough patches with my depression to where I do nothing. I have no time to write and in the time that I do, I don't want to force myself to write a chapter because it won't come out as nicely as I'd want it. I understand the frustration of not being able to read a finished story because that frustrates me too, but please be courteous enough to ask why I don't update or be even nice about it. I worry about enough and having readers be angry with me, really upsets me and doesn't really push me to write. If anything, it makes me want to just delete this story all together because I don't know when this will be finished or if it ever will be. Some of you have been extremely supportive for my situation, so thank you for that... again, slow updates and I don't know when this will be finished.
