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

Legolas' sea-longing and the War of the Ring from the perspective of a Mirkwood Tree planted under the Prince's window. Dissclaimer: I do not own any of Tolkien's places or characters.

A LOTR One-Shot. Legolas' thoughts after Gimli and Aragorn pass away.

Sail the high seas in search of riches beyond the imagination with Captain Oros and his crew of motley and dangerous corsairs from around the whole of Middle Earth. In search of a mythical shipwreck said to hold the untold riches of the long dead Arvedui, the last Arnorian King, Captain Oros and First Mate Fendwall scour the shores for the hardest and strongest sailors to join them. Who they find may very well be more than the two friends can handle alone, but such is the walk of their life. With a fresh crew in hand and vast seas to sail, Oros sets out in search of his greatest undertaking. With a crew as lawless and crafty as this, old grievances quickly rise among new quarrels and mutiny is never a far thought. Will Oros be able to keep command of The White Raider long enough to reach Arvedui's fabled treasure? Is there any treasure?

**Third Place Winner of Gandalf's Challenge** @CJ_Callahan Her eyes looked wonderingly at the small plant that has sprouted out of her small, child size garden. It was strange to her young and inexperienced hands, but naneth had told her not to touch it. To leave it be. "Trees are sacred," naneth had explained gently. "This one is no exception, for it has decided to spring up where you have watered the ground and grown your flowers. Trees do not make decisions lightly." And so she let the tree grow.

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.

It is Yule, and yet King Théoden has a trouble on his soul. Can the shells of sorrow be melted by a good heart, two small gifts, and the magic of Yuletide?

Boom. Boom. Boom. The earth crackled and shook like the thunder in the heavens had pelted the earth with its voice. Doom. Doom. Doom. What if Samwise Gamgee never existed? Would the Fellowship still have triumphed? Undoubtably, not.
