A Permanent Lineage [ Thranduil X OC ]

SEQUEL to "A Lasting Legacy"

"... A taste can be worse than never having any..."

It's been almost a decade since Lady Arden took her rightful place as ruler of Ardor and things have never been better.
In record time, she turned a vast jungle into a prosperous and bustling kingdom.
No longer do the other races look down upon her and her kin as homeless and unwanted nomads, instead they see a powerful and rich culture rooted in the land.
While the new Queen has made many allies, the secret of Ardors' wealth has been well kept, making her worry over who would protest her reign should it come to light.
However an even bigger issue than the truth of Ardors' wealth presents itself, as the orcs that once threatened her and Thranduil have become an even bigger problem.
They have grown bolder and carried out more attacks against both the woodland elves and the jungle elves, necessitating that the 2 rulers come together once more and finally slay the filth.
But Arden will need to overcome her animosity with Thranduil by finally answering the correspondences he has sent in vain for years.
Once she does will Thranduil be able to admit his true feelings for her?
Will she accept them?
And will both kingdoms finally be able to move forwards together, creating a permanent Lineage for its people?
