    Summary

    As Sauron’s shadow lengthens at the end of the Second Age, the Elven realms secure peace in the oldest way: marriage. Círdan the Shipwright pledges his daughter Meríliel to Glorfindel, and his son to Thranduil’s line. It is a wise alliance, not a choice of the heart.

    Meríliel’s loyalty is divided. Her bond to Prince Legolas will echo through centuries of pride, war, and consequence.

    Woven into Tolkien’s canon and Jackson’s films, this story bridges the silences between recorded events, exploring what happened, and when, in the years history only hints at.

    Slow burn. Political tension. Cultural depth. Choices that do not fade.

    👉 Current update: The War of the Last Alliance has left scars, and Legolas now carries an axe. The Istari have arrived. The Third Age is shifting.

    quite literally one of the best lotr fanfictions everrrrr? what the heckkkkk! just finished chapter 31 and i‘m emotionally dead inside. so, a warning: read the when emotionally stable, because this story will fuck you up in the best way possible. everything is perfect. absolutely perfect. worldbuilding? stunning. characters? perfectly executed. romance? hell yea (THE YEARNING GUYS THE YEARNINGGG) political scheming? yes.

     

    also!! i absolutely adore, adore, adore Meríliel. i feel like i’m learning and living through her in the best way possible. she’s still young (for an elf ifykyk) and has flaws, but she LEARNS and she EVOLVES and that’s just beautiful and a joy to see

    and an other HUGE plus point is our homie glorfindel being the greenest flag ever

    i‘m literally shaking what the fuck. I feel like this story fundamentally changed something in me. Dalya dalya my shayla… HELP her character is now so deeply engraved in my mind, I can‘t stop thinking about her . Author you did a phenomenal job at portraying her storyline and her evolution! How you seamlessly made her a part of the movies! The feelings! She is the most teenage girl ever and I adore exactly that about her! She is so imperfectly perfect… the way you portrayed her flaws, but also her development was so smooth and her interactions with each character is so complex and well thought out that i cant help but wonder if the writer is a secret bestselling author. AND NETEYAM! UGH YES GIMME MORE! he is also such a deeply complex character and the dynamics between him and dalya are to die for!!!!!

     

    i need a break because even though im only reading, the amount of angst is slowly taking its toll on me 😀

    Summary

    Aragorn is taking him to see a piano.

     

    “A piano,” Legolas repeats, feeling the word in his mouth - pi-an-oh. He swings his legs as he sounds out the syllables again in his mind. Pi-an-oh. They do not have pianos in Mirkwood; he wonders if it sounds anything like a harp.
     

    Or

     

    Legolas and Aragorn visit the Shire, meet a certain Hobbit, and grow a bit closer.

    THIS IS EVERYTHING I‘ve ever wanted in an Aralas fanfiction..! Legolas being the superb poetic boy he was always supposed to be!! He reminds me so much of book Legolas who is honestly just such a weird little shit but boy do i love love him

    The beef between Legolas and kid Aragorn is too funny
