On the fifth day of Ficmas...
... world_of_blade gave to me: the prompt 'Eowyn/Legolas, they get married for... reasons'.
They were not made for happiness, either of them. Both had known it, only to have it snatched away. She had known love, had felt it in the persona of a warrior with a poet’s soul. He had known it in the guises of his comrades.
She had lost that warrior poet. He had lost his comrades.
Their home is under attack. They are pressed from all sides by their enemies. So much has been destroyed already. It is time to take a stand.
Their marriage is a line in the sand. This far and no further. The elves of Ithilien will stand to defend the princess of this land, who has now married their prince.
They were not made for happiness, but Eowyn and Legolas will find their way, in their own time.
Well, that turned into a total angst fest.
