Summary:
The War of the Ring has ended with a great tragedy for the House of Thranduil. Before leaving with Bilbo Baggins for Valinor, Elrond invites Legolas to Imladris, hoping that spending time away from Mirkwood will help the prince of the Woodland Realm, who is filled with bitterness, to recover from his grief. Lórindol and Estorel, the sons of Erestor and Glorfindel, are now all grown up, and Legolas risks that by befriending one, he might make an enemy of the other.
"Sia": Language of the Plains Elves, meaning "parent".
Note: Rabbit and the concept of the Plains Elves are creations by the ever lovely Magic Rat (delaese on LJ) and used with permission.
Author's note: This tale takes place in TA 3029, forty years after "(The Return of) A.C.O.T.E.R." and ten years after the end of the War of the Rings. For the story to work, I had to take some liberties with the canon timeline; Elrond and Bilbo will leave for the Undying Lands eight years later than in the books (3029 rather than 3021).
CHAPTER 1 Please note: due to the festering pustule on the arse of the internet that is
http://fanfic-journal.com/ who merrily continues to leech all fiction from LJ without care and permission, I will only post my fic on AO3 in future.
