"King Thranduil's voice rung out again, filling the area, 'And Legolas? Do not fail, she could be the tipping of the balance that Middle-earth needs.'"
-
Lumornel has always been a quiet girl, content with her nose stuck in a book or writing in her journal. She'd rather sit in a tree and read than leave the forests of her home. But she then learns that not all is as it seems. An unexpected quest is thrust upon her. Her shyness must be swept aside and she must stand strong as the War of the Rings rages on.
And what happens when Lumornel stops an Uruk-Hai from shooting Boromir on Amon Hen and the Ring is taken from Frodo?
In these times of troubles, she finds unexpected love in a certain woodland prince.
She faces terrifying enemies, unexpected consequences, and surprising revelations, such as her part in an ancient prophecy. And one constant remains; the sorrow she feels for Arda.
Most importantly, she finds herself in the middle of it all because of one thing: she bears a power that no one has been known to have. Because of this power, she is forced into the Fellowship of the Ring: the tenth member.
-
"This story is not your average Lord of the Rings fanfiction where some girl enters the fellowship as the tenth walker and inherits some strange ability, it is much more than that. It is a story of love and compassion, the battle against the mind's inner demons, and the weariness and desire for a better world that drives the soul."

Shadow of Mirkwood
In the heart of the cursed Mirkwood Forest, Legolas, the prince of the woodland realm, is haunted by an inexplicable feeling of being watched. Unbeknownst to him, his every move is shadowed by a female elf (I am not going to reveal the name), the enigmatic and fiercely skilled general of the Mirkwood army, who has vowed to protect her prince and her king - Thranduil. Legolas, however, remains unaware of her presence. Every midnight, she cloaks herself in secrecy and ventures out to meet him, masking her identity. Under the cover of darkness, she observes him carefully. Amidst the looming threats of darkness creeping into Mirkwood, the unlikely bond between Legolas and the general becomes both a source of strength and vulnerability. When news of the One Ring's existence and its devastating power reaches the woodland realm, Legolas, along with a fellowship of brave companions, embarks on a perilous quest to destroy the Ring and save Middle-earth from the clutches of darkness. In a tale of hidden identities, midnight meetings, and unspoken emotions, "Shadows of Mirkwood" explores the profound connection between two souls destined to protect their realm and, in the process, find solace in each other's arms. As they face the ultimate quest to destroy the Ring, their love becomes a beacon of hope in the face of overwhelming darkness. Will their love withstand the challenges of secrecy, duty, and the temptation of the Ring, or will the shadows that brought them together also tear them apart?Complete

Thirty years after the events of The Hobbit, Legolas heeds his father's words to go north and find a wanderer named Strider. However, his search for Strider comes with danger: orcs. So when he is saved from a deadly ambush by a mysterious, yet cunning she-elf, Legolas does all he can to unmask her true identity while staying focused on his mission. Miranna Foxglove's Elven parents were slain by orcs when she was just an elfling; she has a scar -an emotional and physical one- to remember that night. When hordes of orcs start roaming Middle Earth once more, Miranna, along with her mare, tracks them and exterminates them along the way while finding the orc who killed her parents. She does not expect to find two things during her hunt: the Elven prince of Mirkwood and a place that has always waited for her to call home.

Legolas and Aelinor - The lord of the rings
When Sauron held the ring of power, the father of the little Aelinor was his ally, an elf. he failed in a mission and the price to pay was high: he stabbed the little girl in her sleep by placing a piece of the ring inside her heart so that if the ring was destroyed...Aelinor would be destined to die, only true love would save her. Every trace of that child's head was completely eliminated and left on the edge of Mirkwood. Her heart beat to the rhythm of the forest, and in her veins flowed an ancient power, tied to the sap of the trees and the breath of the wind. Legolas, son of Thranduil, Prince of that sylvan kingdom, met Aelinor in the days of his youth. In her Legolas found a love that no royal lesson had taught him, a strength that he could not dominate or understand. There came a dark day, when the forces of Dol Guldur moved in the shadows and Thranduil, in all haste, sent a band of guards south, with Legolas and young Tauriel in tow. It was not the prince's choice, but the king's command. In his hasty farewell, Legolas took Aelinor's hands and swore. Then, one evening like so many others, a figure returned to Thranduil's palace. But what he saw was Tauriel, beside Legolas, their hands intertwined, their gazes close, filled with unspoken words. Too close. Too late. She turned... and was gone. Neither the elf nor the creatures of the forest knew where she had gone. Centuries passed. Now, the Shadow of Sauron rises from Mordor and the whole world trembles. The free races seek allies and the few pure hearts left gather in the Council of Elrond. And it is there, on a day full of omens, that two gazes meet after centuries of silence. 27/06/2025 52 #ring 27/06/2025 139 #elf 01/09/2025 245 #elves 01/09/2025 128 #lordoftherings 13/06/2025 238 #legolas 01/09/2025 1 #fellowship 01/09/2025 187 #lotr 22/06/2025 28 #legolasgreenleaf 13/06/2025 50 #lotrfanfiction 27/06/2025 3 #legolaslovestory 27/06/2025 27 #legolasfanfictionComplete![Daughter of Mirkwood [Lord of the Rings | Haldir]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/65281327-256-k890823.jpg)

But given her mother's death in battle when she was but a young elfling, very little was more important to King Thranduil and his son Legolas than her safety.

For all that she was the most precious thing in the lives of her only family, Aeslin grew up the sad child of a dark forest. But with the Greenwood growing ever darker, Thranduil found himself with a hard choice before him. Fearing for the safety of his youngest child should she stay within the borders of a Kingdom coming to be known as 'Mirkwood', the Elven King made a decision that would change his daughter's life forever. Aeslin had always had a talent for healing, so he decided to send her to Rivendell to learn from Elrond as every great elven healer had done for centuries. There she learns not only the arts of healing, but finds another family, and indeed, eventually finds love. Follows Aeslin from before LotR through to the end of the films.

burnin' for you || barduil
"How is this yours to give?" Without Bard's eyes focused on the Arkenstone before his hands, I had to avert my gaze as well, as now I merely saw his dark wavy hair on the back of his head. Gandalf threw me a strange look, but I kept it down - there was no way I'd talk about whatever he was thinking about talking to me with, when a hobbit and a human were in the room with us. "I took it as my fourteenth share of the treasure." Said hobbit replied, and when the wizard's face finally found another target with him and smiled softly, I felt relieved at the fact I wasn't being so closely monitored by his eyes anymore. "Why would you do this? You owe us no loyalty." Have my ears been tricked by some spell, or did he really say 'us'? OR Thranduil answers Bard's call of help when he asks for it, and learns that he isn't quite as heartless as everyone thought him to be.
