Unspoken ( A Legolas Love Story ) by DormantAuthor

AFTER the Battle of Five Armies, an elf prince journeys to the north of Middle Earth in search of the mysterious Strider. But to also escape the grief of a 'love unspoken' as well as the oppressive regime of his father, King Thranduil. There among the Dúnedain, Legolas finds friendship, adventure, a sense of humor and a female ranger who is not quite what she seems. Is he fated to forever love another unrequited? And what of the broken relationship with his father, will the prince's choices drive a deeper wedge between them? A classic love story, filled with adventure and intrigue, but ALSO a journey into the unwritten years of the beginning of an epic friendship with Aragorn; all set prior to 'The Lord of the Rings'. *Feb 2018: 2nd in The Middle Earth Awards* *June 2018: 2nd in Arkenstone (The Hobbit) category, The Tolkien Awards* *July 2018: Official Featured Wattpad Fanfiction* *Jan 2019: #3 in Romance Hotlist (181k stories) -0-0-0-0-0- I may have nicknamed this story 'Pride and Prejudice for Elves', our silver-haired princeling has several centuries of repression he needs to work through, as well lighten up - before he can become the elf that we know and love in LOTR!

The Legend Of Zelda: Mirror Of Pride by Raincloud64

A classic tale of how a brave knight rose up to defend his kingdom against a powerful and deceptive villain who always has an evil trick up his sleeve and a master plan in mind! Find out how a magical artefact becomes the centre of a grand plot of swords and shields! This story does not take place in any game in the timeline and uses all characters and items in unique ways. The interpretations of the characters are a bit different to how they are portrayed usually in the games. For instance, Link prefers bows to swords and Zelda doesn't go missing for half the story. Ganondorf is a master trickster, always telling lies to manipulate others into doing what he wants. Also, Ganondorf is a very active character who makes an appearance in almost every chapter. There is also always at least 1 fight per chapter so the action is constant! I hope you enjoy this story!

𝐒𝐡𝐞 - A Narnian Prophecy || Peter Pevensie by NaturallyNarnian

'We fight for the future of Narnia, and for such, the child is pivotal.' There are Prophesies in almost every world. Many are carved into cave walls, many are passed on by wise Elders as entire civilisations hold their breathes and wait hundreds, perhaps thousands of years for something or, more usually, someone. But this particular Narnian Prophecy was sung by the stars and held as whispers in the wind. This Prophecy took but 7 days to begin. The Kings and Queens of Narnia simply couldn't understand why an untrained girl- Lilith, was her name- was sent to them amidst the dawn of battle. Lilith herself knew not what she'd done to deserve being thrown into the eye of a storm. But the Centaurs knew. The Fauns, the Dryads, the Talking Animals- each one of them knew. Lilith did unspeakable things as a guest of Royalty. She won the heart of an imperfect King, said the most unrefined things to incredibly refined people and even attempted murder within the Castle walls. But alas, all are part of a far, far bigger story; The story of 'She'. _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ 'Some walkways reminded her of Hogwarts. Some reminded her of Casterly Rock and others of Arthur's Castle in 'Merlin'. But no matter what fictional castle Lilith imagined around her, it was inescapable the fact that this castle, Cair Paravel, was real.' ~~~ #1 thelionthewitchandthewardrobe (24/11/22) WilliamMoseley (31/12/20), Narniaau (23/03/21) LucyPevensie (21/01/21) Pevensie (04/03/22) #2 CSLewis (07/02/23) GoldenAge (20/02/21 & 24/01/23) NarniaFanfiction (07/08/22) #3 SkandarKeynes (27/09/21) CairParavel (08/01/22) #7 Narnia (29/03/21) #32 EdmundPevensie (22/10/22) #43 Prophecy (17/12/21) #59 Medieval (07/05/21)

~Daughter of the King~ A Narnia Fanfiction by ashutts

By hearing my title you think I'm some very special person in Narnia. Guess what...you're wrong. I'm just a girl nobody appreciates after what I did. My father never notices me, and sometimes I wonder if he knows I still exist. People bow and say nice things, but deep down, they despise me. I always stay in my human form because I feel like changing would cause people to hate me more. The only person who cares about me is Orieus, the one charged to look out for me. However, all of that changes when my dad finally comes home. That one day may change my future of how people look at me forever. Bonds created. Love discovered. Broken things mended. Edmund x Makayla (OC) Now the story line may not be perfect to the book or movie because I have so many ideas... So if everything is not quoted perfectly please don't complain. This is based off of the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. No characters belong to me except my OC's. Everything else is credited to C.S. Lewis.
