In a bed chamber high in the trees of Lothlorien is a young she-elf is sound asleep. "She will wake soon if Mithrandir is to proceed with his quest to Erebor. The darkness will grow, and she will awaken to fight it, like she did long ago." Galadriel says, turning to her husband and taking his hand. The she-elf is not as young as she seems, she had nearly faded when Galadriel found her at the beginning of the second age. The elf never woke, but the Lady of Light has foreseen it; Naehlara will awaken to help lead the elves, men and all free folk to peace, for she is the High Queen of the elves. The only living elf from the first age. Her fae grows stronger with every year bringing her closer to awakening. Galadriel once was friends with the elf, her father Thingol; king of Doriath before it was abandoned and forgotten as the first age elves left Middle Earth to go back to Valanor or faded with time. "I have longed to see my friend reawaken but how do you explain to one that nearly two ages has passed since she fell into slumber." Galadriel says, a small smile growing on her face. "She was a mighty warrior, the best in all of Middle Earth. But she was stubborn, not as wise as most elves. A lot more like our Woodland kin, the ones in Greenwood." Galadriel says, a laugh slipping through her lips as she remembers watching Naehlara fight in the wars long ago. How she'd argue with anyone that stood in her way, nearly taking the head off the captain of the guard when he would not head her warning of the armies coming from Morgoth. ✨NOT A HOBBIT FANFIC IT IS SET DURING LORD OF THE RINGS✨ A/N I do not own any character other than Naehlara and maybe more if I choose to add more. But probably just Naehlara. I'm newer to the fandom so please let me know if i got any facts wrong. I hope you enjoy the story Also maybe be slow updates due to work but I hope to put out consistently!

Eda is a flight-risk mercenary with a bad track record. Living on half-payments from uncompleted jobs, she hopes that her luck will change. And it does. When Eda meets Gandalf, he tells her that being reluctant to kill - valuing life - is not a weakness.

Toen ik de zaal betrad, zag ik een enorme troon met daar op zittend een mannelijke elf. Hij droeg een prachtige kroon waarvan het leek of het van takken was gemaakt. Zijn lange, zilveren haar kwam tot over zijn schouders die bedekt waren met een lange, zwartkleurige mantel. Zijn donkere, brede wenkbrauwen stonden in een geïnteresseerde frons... maar zijn ogen. Zijn ijskoude blauwe ogen. Ze keken me emotieloos aan. Zo emotieloos en koel dat het mijn eigen hart deed bevriezen. Dit was dus de elfenkoning. Thranduil. Vader van Legolas Greenleaf, de jonge prins die van mijn vader Aragorn al de toestemming had om mijn jongste zuster Nimmeth te trouwen. Maar ik moest nog eens even een hartig woordje met de koning spreken voordat ik mijn zusje overgaf aan de elfen van Mirkwood. 'Majesteit... het is een eer u te ontmoeten,'
