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.

The King's Heart (Thranduil Fanfiction) by thranduilsguardian

Being a king is hard. Raising a son is hard. Living with eternal grief is hard. King Thranduil is just trying to keep his kingdom running and his son safe when an elf is found with orcs at the border of Greenwood. Who could this mysterious elf truly be? But then the elf he rescued in the forest grows closer to Legolas, and Thranduil can not help but enjoy her company as well. Darkness descends over the forest, all because of this one elf. When lives are threatened, Thranduil must make a choice: his kingdom or his heart. 12/14/21- y'all I wrote this in high school and I kinda want to go through it again and do a bunch of editing. Some of my writing makes me cringe and what are we here for if not improvement. That being said, this story will change starting today probably and if you're in the middle of it, hopefully I don't confuse details or timelines for you. If you've already read it once and just felt like you had to read it again, maybe it will provide some new enjoyment. Who knows? Maybe I'll actually finish some other stuff I have on here.

The Ghost Warrior [Legolas Fan Fic] by Zelinith

***First in The Ghost Warrior Series*** Little Legolas and Thranduil are in Imladris for meetings to discuss the growing darkness in Middle-Earth. Within two days of being there, an elleth is attacked and a note is left behind that details a threat towards someone, who ends up being the Prince later on when another note is found. Trust begins to diminish, especially when Legolas is attacked by a mysterious warrior. Just days afterwards he is kidnapped and thus begins the search for the missing Prince. It's a race against time to see if they can reach Legolas before his demise and stop the Ghost Warrior's plans, and if not, then to witness the ending of their hope. For without the Greenleaf, there is a piece of the future that will be forever lost and can change it's course for good.
