Braig swished his mane, tossing his head in the air; he loved to go on runs. He had the most beautiful coat, white and black, he was a paint. Many thought it strange, seeing him, no other horse in Middle Earth had his colors. Alas, he was not from Middle Earth, nor was his rider. I wasn't from this land, although, I had been here for many, many years. I am not here because I've done a good deed. I was sent here for a punishment. I was allowed to take a five items I cherished, one being Braig. There are a few of me on this earth, how many I do not know. I have not met any in my travels, but I know they are here. Misunderstood creatures we are. Some might say demons, devils, monsters... we've heard them all before. We keep our identity hidden, but still keep it close to our hearts, though, we always remember what we are, what we've done.
We are the fallen ones, we are Exiles.
"You talk too much elf-boy," Arya muttered, her voice hoarse from all the screaming she had done due to the pain of her injuries. Legolas scrunched up his nose in disdain of the nickname, but a smile soon found his way onto his face.
"I am not a boy."
Her eyes opened then, and her familiar hazel eyes met his striking blue ones. A small smile made itself present on her face as she looked at him, a twinkle of mischief evident in her eyes.
"No. You are not."

Arya woke up some years ago with a grey-haired wizard leaning over her. She had no memories, no indications that told her who or what she was. With the outer appearances of an elf, but eyes that flash orange and strange symbols that appear on her skin - no one seems able to tell her anything about her past.
She joined the quest of Thorin's dwarven company to have something to do, and she quickly became a part of their group. After a long and arduous journey but still a far away from the mountain they stumble into trouble. And whom is there to save her, but a certain Mirkwood prince with long blond hair and a pair of startling blue eyes.
With one of them bursting with light, and the other filled with darkness their story will be anything but easy. Feelings, however, are hard to suppress, and with a war brewing on the horizon they might not have a lot of time.
